“Liberal New York shouldn’t get credit for our hard-working ranchers,” Patrick said.

The Texas lawmaker said he drew inspiration from President Donald Trump’s rebrand of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. He posted on X, he may “take a short cruise across the Gulf of America and have a juicy medium-rare Texas Strip.”

How can the state act on his call?

Patrick is now urging Texas state lawmakers to approve the rebrand in a formal resolution. He called on all local restaurants and grocery stores to update their menus accordingly.

Where did the New York Strip get its name?

The steak earned its moniker after Delmonico’s, a nearly 200-year-old steakhouse in the Big Apple, listed the New York Strip on its menu. It’s been a mainstay in American cuisine ever since.

How big is Texas’ cattle industry?

Beef is king in Texas, where the cattle industry is the state’s largest agricultural commodity and sports a market value of $15.5 billion, according to the Texas Department of Agriculture.
