Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick wants to change the name of the New York Strip. He says calling it a Texas Strip will help promote beef from the Lone Star State. Patrick says a concurrent resolution to make the change will be filed in the Texas Senate.

Marc and Greg Sherry, who own the longest-running steakhouse in the city, the Old Homestead on Ninth Avenue, are so proud of the cut that they call it “Sherry Brothers 16 oz. New York prime sirloin” on their menu.

Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick is pushing for the name change of the New York strip steak to the Texas strip steak to give credit to the state’s cattlemen and promote the Texas brand.
