From June 19–21, 2026, Uruguay Meats proudly participated in the Famous Food Festival, one of New York’s premier traveling food festivals, held this year in Long Island. Featuring more than 100 food vendors, live cooking demonstrations, and renowned chefs, the festival attracts thousands of visitors each year eager to explore outstanding flavors and the latest culinary trends.
Throughout the three-day event, Uruguay Meats had the opportunity to showcase the exceptional quality of Uruguayan beef to local consumers, sharing the spotlight with some of the region’s most celebrated food vendors and culinary professionals.
Visitors were welcomed to the Uruguay Meats gazebo, where they enjoyed tastings of premium Uruguayan beef expertly prepared by Chef Timothy Clowers. The experience highlighted the outstanding flavor, tenderness, and versatility of Uruguay’s world-renowned beef through a memorable culinary journey.
Guests sampled a selection of premium cuts, including ribeye, skirt steak, flap steak, and rump cap, each demonstrating the distinctive quality and rich taste that have earned Uruguayan beef its international reputation.
Raised responsibly on open pastures and never treated with growth hormones, Uruguayan cattle produce beef renowned for its natural flavor, and uncompromising quality.
Events like the Famous Food Festival provide an invaluable opportunity to bring Uruguayan beef directly to consumers while strengthening its presence in the U.S. market. Today, the United States is Uruguay’s leading export market by value and its second-largest by volume, making initiatives like this essential to expanding awareness and appreciation of Uruguayan beef products.
