About Brangus
Brangus combine the hardiness and heat tolerance of the Brahman (3/8) with the carcass quality and marbling of the Angus (5/8). Developed in the United States, this composite breed excels in hot, humid environments where straight European breeds struggle. Brangus offer the best of both worlds — Brahman adaptability without the extreme Bos indicus temperament, plus Angus beef quality.
