The people's need for beef is increasing, demanding more production in order to reach many consumers in various regions. This causes beef producers to pay attention to the quality of the meat to be marketed so that the meat becomes safe. The Total Plate Count (TPC) is one of the initial tests to identify the general microbial count in meat. Therefore, this study aims to determine the TPC in samples of beef that will be marketed outside Bali. There were 20 samples of beef, originating from 5 beef companies in Bali that beef outside the island of Bali through testing services from the Class 1 Agricultural Quarantine Center Denpasar. The test results stated that most of the beef samples from the five companies were contaminated with microbes. The feasibility of consuming the beef sample was declared feasible in accoaccord per 2008 SNI standard 1 x 106 CFU/g.
