Mawlana Abd al-Hayy al-Lakhnawi رحمه الله writes, “The incident of Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم sacrificing a cow on behalf of his wives during the Farewell Hajj and distributing its meat to his wives is recorded both in Sahih al-Muslim (#294) and Sahih al-Bukhari (#1709). I have not come across an explicit narration which mentions that Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم ate the meat of a cow.

Shaykh Abd al-Haqq Dehlawi رحمه الله writes in Madārij An-Nubuwwat,

“It is established that Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم ate the meat of sheep, but we do not know for certain if he ate the meat of a cow. It is mentioned in hadith narrations that Rasulullah صلى الله عليه وسلم did sacrifice a cow on behalf of his wives, and apparently he ate from that meat as well.”
