All American Beef Battalion to host first steak feed

Troops to receive steaks hosted by Creekstone Farms Premium Beef

Kansas

All American Beef Battalion will host its first steak feed for the 731st Transportation Company on April 26 in Olathe, Kan., whose guard members just returned from a tour of duty in Iraq.

More than 350 people are expected to attend the event, which honors guard members and their families for their tour of duty. Creekstone Farms Premium Beef generously donated 420 pounds of ribeye steaks for the event. The Beef Empire Days PRCA Rodeo Committee will prepare the meal for 175 guard members and 100 family members.

Chairman of the All American Beef Battalion, Jim Odle will speak at the event. Kansas Speaker of the House Melvin Neufeld will attend, with other key officials and beef industry professionals making an appearance at the steak feed.

The All American Beef Battalion is a group of individuals within the United States beef cattle industry dedicated to support the troops fighting the global war on terror. They work to organize and sponsor steak feeds, entertainment, and programs with Service Members and their families.

The All American Beef Battalion began in Aug. 2007. Organized exclusively for charitable, scientific, and educational purposes, the All American Beef Battalion strives to serve as a contact group for the United States Beef Industry. They accept donations for their work and plan to host more steak feeds in the future.

Creekstone Farms Premium Beef provides Black Angus beef to retailers through their natural and premium raised beef programs. For more than 10 years, they have been supplying restaurateurs and grocers with high quality Black Angus beef.
