What it is

Angus beef comes from a specific breed of beef cattle originating in Scotland. These cattle are known for their high-quality meat, which is typically well-marbled, tender, and flavorful. The beef is processed and sold as cuts of meat or ground for use in various food products.

Why it's used

Angus beef is primarily used as a source of protein and for its rich flavor in meat products. Manufacturers use it in items like fresh or frozen beef patties, burgers, sausages, and other processed meat products where a premium beef taste is desired.

Health notes

Angus beef is a source of protein, iron, and B vitamins. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers beef to be generally recognized as safe (GRAS) when used as food. Like other red meats, high consumption has been linked in some studies to increased risk of certain health issues, but evidence is mixed and depends on preparation and overall diet. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated beef, but does not set specific intake limits for whole foods.

Allergen info

Angus beef is not one of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
