The South Dakota Cattlemen's Auxiliary filmed and produced a holiday beef commercial, which will air in the weeks leading up to Christmas.

The 30-second commercial goes something like this:

From decorating the Christmas tree to wrapping presents, the holidays are a busy time of the year. Simplify your holiday menu with tasty, nutritious beef.

Create beautiful appetizers like beef pinwheels and mini meatballs with apricot dipping sauce. Warm up with a bowl of Autumn Beef and Cider Stew. Wow your guests with elegant Peppery Beef Rib Roast.

Happy Holidays from South Dakota cattle ranchers and the beef checkoff program.
