Reasons why Maleny Black Angus Beef is Unique…

Grass fed beef has been shown to be better for you and tastier to eat. But not all grass-fed beef is the same. Some of the best beef in the world, and certainly the best in Australia, is raised and prepared right here in Maleny!

First, there are 4 reasons why grass-fed beef is better than grain-fed beef…

  • Grass fed beef has no antibiotics or growth hormones, so it’s safer for you and your family to eat.
    It’s the opposite case with grain-fed beef sold in supermarkets and most butchers.
  • Grass fed beef contains the whole range of good fats, so it’s healthier for you to eat. This is because the best saturated fats eg. CLA are only produced when a cow lives on grass, not a diet of grain. The majority of beef you buy in the supermarkets is grain-fed beef.
  • Grass fed beef has good CLA acids and fats which means it can help prevent cancer. Omega-3 fatty acids and Conjugated Linoleic Acid found in beef are great for us. Sadly, just 80 days of grain-feeding (in the last stages of a feed-lot cows’ life) is enough to undo all that Omega-3 goodness, even if the cattle started their lives eating grass. Our beef is 100% grass-fed and grass-finished, with no feed-lots and no grain introduced into their diet at any stage.
  • Grass fed beef doesn’t shrink as much, so it keeps its shape better during cooking and delivers a bigger steak.
    This is because there’s less fat and water in the meat than grain-fed beef. The rumps and other cuts you buy from the supermarket might look thick and juicy, but as grain-fed beef, they shrink. Our beef holds its shape better, giving you a bigger steak!

And there are four reasons why Maleny Black Angus Beef is the best Grass Fed Beef you can buy…

  • Maleny Black Angus Beef is raised on better grass, so it’s healthier for our cattle and for you. This is because Kikuyu grass and clover are prevalent in this area due to our altitude and high rainfall. Kikuyu is a better feed for our cattle than many other grasses in other areas of Australia. And clover puts nitrogen back into the soil.
  • Maleny Black Angus Beef is supplemented with natural minerals and molasses, so the cattle are healthier and our beef is tastier. These supplements help our cattle maintain a balanced diet.​
  • Maleny Black Angus Beef has more protein and vitamins, so the meat is healthier, and it has vitamins A, C and E which are natural anti-oxidants.
  • Maleny Black Angus Beef is only ever genuine Black Angus which means our beef has healthier fats and a better taste than other meat you might buy.
