T
North Carolina Beef Quest By ASHLEY W. HERRING Director of Consumer Information N.C. Cattlemen’s Beef Council From the mountains to the coast, North Carolina restaurants serve delicious beef across our state. Taking a journey to discover incredible beef meals will lead diners to enter for a chance to win great prizes. We are excited to launch the North Carolina Beef Quest, lasting through September 6. This is the first beef foodservice promotion of its kind, and we cannot wait to share the fun. To participate, diners visit restaurants from our list and share a photo/social media post to document their experience. Of course, they
must choose a beef entrée to enjoy. The more restaurants visited, the more chances for prizes. We will award the first three hundred diners who visit three restaurants a meat thermometer. Visiting five or more restaurants will secure an entry for one of five grilling prize packs. Visiting eight or more restaurants will secure an entry to win one of two stainless tabletop grills. Participants must complete a contact information form at www.ncbeef.org. Our goal is to help foodservice operators sell more beef and have diners
