Guanyun Pingyao Beef

Guanyun Pingyao Beef Group traces its origin to Qing-dynasty beef workshops inside Pingyao's walls; the name 'Guanyun' means 'crowned with clouds' to signify excellence, and after passing through generations it became the modern face of Pingyao beef.

Pingyao beef is prized for its ruddy colour, tender texture and rich but not greasy flavour; Guanyun is its most representative inheritor, with products sold nationwide and internationally.

The traditional process covers four stages: selecting cattle, marinating, preparing the spiced brine, and slow-braising; the secret brine draws flavour deep into the meat, yielding a product outstanding in colour, aroma and taste.
