Canada Beef launches Beef Up Your Skills initiative for Canadian consumers
Calgary, AB – Canada’s beef industry is dedicated to delivering an outstanding eating experience each time a consumer prepares our products. While the effort starts on the farm with Canada’s 60,000 beef producers, and continues throughout the supply chain, the finishing touches will always be achieved in the kitchen. With this in mind, Canada Beef is pleased to announce new online tools to make a great home chef even better.
The Beef Up Your Skills initiative provides consumers with helpful advice and meaningful support to address common questions and issues related to cooking beef. Canada Beef President Michael Young said the intent is to take a multi-faceted approach that takes its cue from consumer feedback and applies expert guidance and research to develop enhanced recommendations.
