Rump is the most affordable and, some say, full flavoured of the primary cuts. Roast or barbecue - best cooked rare to medium rare and left to rest for at least 10 minutes after cooking.
This product is fresh, not frozen.
We buy whole bodies of beef on a rotating basis from a number of farms and your cut will come from whichever beef is available and sufficiently aged when you order. The beef we source is:
packed with the farm, certification (if applicable) and breed clearly labelled;
dry aged for between two to six weeks, depending on the cut;
minimum 24 months old and could be up to 36 months or older (most beef is yearling);
hormone and antibiotic-free;
grass-fed and finished on chemical-free pasture (except in conditions such as drought where there is insufficient grass available when silage or sprouted grains may be used);
a mix of breeds including bio-dynamic Red Angus, organic Belted Galloway and organic Wagyu;
from NSW and Victorian farms - English Longhorns come from Tasmania.
