Often the staple piece of a perfect roast. A thin layer of fat is generally left on top of the leg to keep it moist and juicy during cooking. Roasting with the bone in adds flavour and delivers tender meat. For the best result sear in a hot pan or grill first, then transfer to the oven and finish cooking.

A better choice for you and your family. 

By shopping for local produce, you’ll be supporting the local farmers in Australia and saving money. Buying local seasonal produce means you don’t pay for extra charges like transportation and storage which is part of out-of-season foods.

The way our food is grown, manufactured and distributed is causing serious damage to our environment, farmers, animals, communities and health. With between 30% and 60% of our personal eco-footprint embodied in the food that we buy, it has never been more important to educate ourselves and our children about where our food comes from.

Buying local seasonal produce means you don’t pay for extra charges like transportation and storage which is part of out of season foods, it also produces a great opportunity for you to learn something different, connect with your local farmers and get back to nature.

For our final Product of the Week for August we are circling back to a previous mention because we just love it so much: Our Beef Mince!

The key to our beef mince is that we make it fresh prior to every order, it has nothing in it but the finest Castle Estate chuck, blade or topside cuts which makes it particularly flavoursome, rich in colour and the high quality staple ingredient for you to have in the fridge or freezer at all times. 

We often add nothing to our beef mince but salt and pepper to make the simplest hamburger, or why not see how it adds life to your favourite pasta sauce or chilli con carne.  We would love to hear how you make our beef mince shine in your cooking each week.

Unfortunately over time, as a society, we have been conditioned to accept that “fresh meat” is often presented in ‘modified atmosphere’ packs with gases inside that delay natural discolouring of meat – we know what we choose, our philosophy is that beef needs to have nothing done to it - but mincing.

We trust that you will choose Castle Estate beef mince too, and recognise that a little bit of nothing is really something! 

If you’d like to find out more about our beef mince  or you wish to place your order today, visit our website at https://castleestate.com.au/product/mince/
