HCR 101 proposes designating the tomahawk rib-eye steak as the official State Steak of Texas. The resolution highlights the historical and economic significance of the cattle industry in Texas, emphasizing its contributions to the state's agricultural economy and job market. It acknowledges Texas' status as the leading beef producer in the United States, as well as the cultural legacy of steakhouse traditions tied to cattle drives and chuck wagons. The tomahawk rib-eye steak, a cut of rib-eye with an extended rib bone, is recognized for its connection to Texas ranching. The resolution calls on the Texas Department of Agriculture to promote the tomahawk rib-eye steak as part of state efforts to support Texas beef and agricultural products, underscoring the importance of the beef industry to Texas' economy and cultural identity.
