Lawmaker seeks to name ribeye Oklahoma's 'official state steak'
Saturday, December 8, 2018
If one state senator gets his way, Oklahoma will soon have an official meat.
Senator Casey Murdock authored a bill that would name the ribeye as the official steak of Oklahoma.
Murdock, who is a rancher himself, says with more than a million cows in the state, cattle actually outnumber people.
Though the senator thinks the move would be good for tourism and the restaurant industry, many in Oklahoma say it's a waste of time and money.
In case you're wondering, Oklahoma already has a state beverage -- milk.
