PC Angus Seasoned Beef Skewers
You can't get enough of our Angus beef products so we created our new President's choice Angus Beef Skewers just in time for summer! We took juicy and tender 100% Angus beef and marinated it with a savoury combination of soy sauce, garlic and coriander seeds. Just cook them on the grill or in the oven and they're ready in minutes. We love pairing them with a baked potato or grilled mushrooms.
