This past week, Oregon was home to the 2011 Certified Angus Beef ®Annual Conference. Folks gathered at the historic Sunriver Resort in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. Over the three days of the conference, attendees from all over the world had the chance to:
* Tour Angus ranches to see what it takes to grow a steak from pasture to plate
* Determine winning burger flavors at Burger Bash
* Enjoy the talents of renowned chefs at One Night, Five Dinners (our picture here is of preparation of some CAB steaks for conference attendees)
* Sample the latest beef convenience items on the market
* Learn the hottest trends and concepts in the culinary world
Two Oklahoma Cattle Producers were a part of the global gathering of more than 600 attendees- and Jimmy and Tracy Taylor of Elk City were honored during the Conference with an Award of Excellence, signifying their ranch as the National Commercial Producer of the Year for Certified Angus Beef. Nominating the Taylors was Dale Moore of Cattlemen's Choice Feedyard of Gage, Oklahoma.
As they returned to Oklahoma this past Friday evening, we caught up with the Taylors and the Moores at Will Rogers World Airport- and talked with Jimmy and Dale about this award. You can hear our conversation with both of these gentlemen in a special digital version of the Beef Buzz. Click on the LISTEN BAR below to take a listen.
