Sealed as packed, never portioned.

What buying whole actually gets you

30 to 38

Cut at home at 3 cm, a box of striploin gives you between 30 and 38 steaks.

50

At 300 g a portion, a 15 kg box is 50 serves.

  1. Cut it your own way

    Steaks at the thickness you actually want, a roast off the end, the trim for mince. One primal does all three, and nobody sells a four centimetre steak.

  2. It keeps

    A primal cut stays sealed until you open it. Steak that has already been portioned started its clock the day somebody cut it.

  3. You know the rate first

    Every cut carries a rate per kilo before you reserve. The figure at the counter follows the weight on the box, at the rate you reserved at.

Emerald, Central Highlands

Laine picks it, and he breeds Wagyu himself

Beef Cartel is Laine Thomson, out of Emerald in the Central Highlands. He is not reselling somebody else's brand off a list. He breeds Wagyu, he knows what a marble score means on the plate, and he buys the boxes he would want himself.

Collection in Emerald

You collect it from our cold room

Straight from our cold room in Emerald, and you pay the balance by the time you pick it up. It never sits in a truck overnight and it never changes hands twice. Bring an esky if you have distance to cover.
