Our Story
Unlike their cousins raised in feedlots, our cattle are nurtured and encouraged to thrive in their natural environment. They’re healthy, clean and safe to eat. Grain-fed cattle are grown faster, for obvious economic reasons. But cattle aren’t meant to eat grain. It’s hard for them to digest and can cause tumours and other disorders.
Instead, we spoil our cattle with natural grasses, molasses and minerals, in line with expert recommendations, to build optimum health in our herd. We all get involved – it’s quite the family enterprise.
Then we process our cattle at an accredited, local processor. We never freeze our meat. Instead it cryovaced fresh in meal-sized portions, ready to be stored in your fridge or freezer.
And we make it easy to buy reasonable quantities for most freezers. You can buy a Whole Beast, Half Beast, Mixed Quarter or a ‘Taste’. We’ll deliver it to you by refrigerated transport direct from our processor. And delivery is free to Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, Gold Coast and Toowoomba.
Why Grass Fed is better...
Grass fed beef has been shown to be healthier for you and tastier to eat.
There are a few differences between grass-fed and grain-fed beef; not just in the appearance of the meat and colour of the fat, but also in the nutritional benefits of grass-fed over grain-fed.
Grass fed beef has no antibiotics or growth hormones and contains good CLA acids and the whole range of good fats which means it can help prevent cancer.
Also, grass-fed beef doesn’t shrink as much, so it keeps its shape better during cooking and delivers a bigger steak.
Maleny Black Angus Beef is not only 100% grass-fed beef, but we believe it’s the healthiest and tastiest grass-fed Black Angus beef in Australia.
