Certified Angus Beef Brand Preferred At James Beard House

WOOSTER, Ohio – Certified Angus Beef® brand has been named the official beef purveyor for the renowned James Beard House in New York City. In this new role, chefs from around the world will have the opportunity to showcase Certified Angus Beef® products for their meals at the James Beard House. Hosting dinners over 200 days a year, the James Beard House welcomes chefs by invitation only to present their culinary art to Beard Foundation members, friends and media in much the same way musicians perform at Carnegie Hall.

“The brand has a strong relationship with the James Beard Foundation and we value its platform and core values that serve the greater good of the culinary community,” states John Stika, Certified Angus Beef® brand president. “We are honored to provide the opportunity for chefs to experience the quality of our superior product, create innovative dishes and truly taste the Certified Angus Beef® brand difference.”

Founded in 1986, the James Beard Foundation is dedicated to celebrating, nurturing and preserving America’s diverse culinary heritage and future. A cookbook author and teacher with an encyclopedic knowledge about food, James Beard, who died in 1985, was a champion of American cuisine. He helped educate and mentor generations of professional chefs and food enthusiasts. Today, the Beard Foundation continues in the same spirit through educational programs and maintaining the historic James Beard House in New York City’s Greenwich Village as a “performance space” for visiting chefs.
