Nebraska beef. It’s what was for dinner at Trump’s inauguration.

LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) – At one of the biggest events of the year, over 1,000 miles from the Cornhusker State, Nebraska brought the beef.

Sen. Deb Fischer of Nebraska and Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota hosted a luncheon for Monday’s presidential inauguration.

The main course was Angus ribeye from Omaha Steaks.

Over 200 guests were at the luncheon, including President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance.

“They had a lot of choices, and they chose the best,” said Laura Field, vice president of Nebraska Cattlemen.

She said Nebraska ranchers should be proud.

“I think it will reap very positive benefits,” Field said. “Even if it’s just a curiosity of, ‘What’s the big deal with Nebraska beef?'”

Other items on the menu included crab cakes, potato gratin and dessert made with Minnesota apples.
