If you choose to consume our beef, fed on diverse pastures – it’s better for you. We choose chemical free pastures for our cows to graze on so that we can avoid the need for ‘chemical bandaids’ for our cows.  This means that you, our customers get the knock on effects of clean food and of the associated advantages of the plant secondary compounds when you consume our beef.

We hand rear and lovingly farm our animals providing 1000 acres of land where they are free to roam the paddocks, grass grazing in the fresh air and open spaces, just as nature intended.

The paddocks provide the most nutritionally balanced diet for farm animals which is essential for them to maintain optimal health. So it makes sense that a healthy animal will provide not only great tasting meat but meat with nutritional value that can bolster the health of the person consuming it.

Product of the week #3, the oyster blade sits on the shoulder blade and when separated from the shoulder can be cut into steaks for pan-frying or barbecuing. It has a thin line of gristle that runs through the centre of the steak which should be scored to prevent curling when cooking. It is also a perfect cut for stir-frying with its full flavour and tenderness.

For thousands of years, meat has been seen as a rarity and a sign of  wealth. As Australian’s we love our meat but we also think it’s important to observe how other nations and cultures view and consume meat products. 

For example, did you know that India consumes the least amount of meat per capita? Hindus who do eat meat, often distinguish all other meat from beef. The respect for cow is part of Hindu belief, and most Hindus avoid meat sourced from cow as cows are treated as a motherly giving animal, considered as another member of the family. Instead they mainly consume chicken, fish and lamb, but still stay away from animal-derived fats such as lard and dripping. 

We love learning about different cultures and customs when it comes to meat so we hope we can provide you with a bit more insight into how meat is consumed across the world.
