Farmstead Meats – 1/2 Body Pasture-Fed Angus Beef

Experience premium pasture-raised Angus beef straight from the paddock to your plate. When you place an order for a half body of beef, we’ll be in touch personally to walk you through your preferred cuts and provide a clear overview of the process.

Hanging & Butchering

Each side of beef is dry-aged (hung) for 7–10 days before butchering to enhance flavour and tenderness.

Carcass Weight

A full body typically yields 200–220kg. The pricing is based on a 100kg half carcass and includes fat and bone.

How We Raise Our Cattle

Our cattle graze on diverse pastures throughout the year including millet, sorghum, winter oats, ryegrass, cocksfoot, and clover. They’re cared for with a focus on health, receiving regular mineral supplements, vaccinations, and drenching as needed.

No mRNA vaccines are ever used on our livestock.

Processing Timeline

Each week, our cattle are quietly transported just 30 minutes to a local abattoir on Wednesday evenings. They’re given overnight rest and are processed first thing Thursday morning. After a 12–16 hour chill, the beef is delivered to our butcher where it’s hung for 7–10 days. Your order is then custom-cut, vacuum-packed or cryovaced, and dispatched fresh on the same day it’s packed.

Please allow 14–18 days from order to delivery, depending on aging time and cut selection.
