Deposit Explained: Why We Do It and How It Benefits You!
We've noticed some of you have been curious about our deposit system when it comes to ordering items like whole cuts (think mouthwatering whole Scotch), quarters, sides, and even full animal bodies. We're here to shed some light on this process and why it's actually pretty amazing for all parties involved!
The Weighty Issue: Why No Fixed Prices?
You see, the main reason we can't offer a fixed price for these delicious meaty treasures is because of their weight-dependent nature. The weight of each whole cut or animal body can vary, depending on the size of the animal.
And as we all know, weight affects the price!
Now, imagine if we charged a set price based on an estimate. What if the animal turned out smaller than expected? In that case, you'd end up paying more money due to the fixed price. That's not fair, right? We believe in transparency and ensuring that every customer is treated fairly.
Deposit: Your Friend in Fairness!
So, here's where the deposit comes into play, and it's actually a win-win situation!
When you pay a deposit, we're able to weigh the exact whole cut or body that you've ordered and will be receiving. This allows us to charge you the exact amount by sending an invoice with the remaining balance, based on the weight and current pricing. It's like a tailor-made price just for you!
By paying a deposit, you ensure that you're not overpaying for your order. You get the satisfaction of knowing that you're being charged a fair price based on the actual weight of the meat you'll receive.

Our grass fed/grass finished range in a nutshell.
As a suppliment to our certified organic range of beef, our grass fed/grass finished range is of the highest quality, grown on local farms, is free of vaccines and chemical interventions, has never been fed grain or placed in a feed lot and are from a breed of cattle renound for their temprement, ease of handling and eating qualities.
We have several local producers, all within a 100km radius of our premises, who produce Murray Grey cattle as both breeding stock and for meat. We rotate through these producers depending on their stock availability and our requirements and have a constant, consistant supply stream of these amazing carcasses.
Murray Grey cattle are the breed founded and developed in Australia for Australian conditions. Originally developed in the Murray River region around the NSW/Vic border, the breed has become synonymous with producers for their placid nature and workability and with butchers and chefs for their consistancy of eatability, carcass yeild and workable carcass size. The breed became a registered entity in the early 1900's and was developed by crossing an Aberdeen Angus bull over a Shorthorn cow. These cattle are Poll, meaning they are born without and don't develop horns.
The producers who grow this beef for us are fully aligned with our principals of animal welfare underpinng everything we do. These cattle are bred, born & raised on the farms they live on, have access to all year round green feed and fresh running water, are free from any chemical interventions and vaccinations and live a stress free life in their herds. The only time the cattle we source leave the farm is for their journey to the abattoirs. This is important because it means these animals will be exempt from the impending introduction of the mRNA vaccination program.
The providence of our products is something we take seriously and our support of local producers over the entire period we have been in business can not be denied. Whilst many meat retailers are happy to purchase from multinational wholesalers and receive products from anywhere in Australia, we have a different outlook on what sustainability, supporting local and keeping small scale producers viable into the future should look like.
