NO. They did not eat. They should not eat beef.
BUT, they have to consume a small quantity (mustard size) of goat meat as 'Prasad' of Devathas to make the sacrifice fruitful. IF they refuse, it is considered as humiliating Devathas & the sacrifice become futile. It is COMPULSORY to take meat of Goat as prasad after offering to devathas!.
So, understand that brahmins didn't eat heaps of beef after sacrifice.
