How it works
We bring restaurant-grade Australian Wagyu into Emerald by the box or the primal, once a month. A Beef Cartel cycle runs the same way every time, and you know the rate per kilo before you reserve anything.
- 01
The cycle opens
We put the catalogue up for the month: every cut we have this cycle, each in four marble score grades from MB 4-5 to MB 9+, every one priced per kilo. Take a whole box at 5% off the kilo price, or as many single primals as you want. Each cut's page shows what its box and its primals weigh.
You choose your cuts and reserve them with a 50 per cent deposit. That deposit holds your box for the cycle at the rate on the page. We email you a confirmation carrying the cut, the grade and the rate you reserved at.
- 02
The cycle closes and we buy
Every box reserved that month goes to our supplier as one order. That is what puts these cuts at this price.
Your box is held at the rate you reserved at. From here the order is ours to move, and the next thing you need from us is an email.
- 03
Your box travels refrigerated to Emerald
The consolidated order comes down the line under refrigeration and into our cold room in Emerald. Freight timing moves from cycle to cycle, so we go by the box itself: the day yours reaches the cold room, you hear from us.
- 04
Your box arrives, and we send you the figures
A box reaches us sealed, with the weight the abattoir recorded printed on the outside. We do not open it, and that printed figure is the one we are charged on and the one we charge you on. A single primal is different. It comes out of its carton still sealed in its vacuum bag, and we weigh it ourselves on the scales in our cold room.
Either way you get an invoice by email and text, at or before collection. It shows the weight, the rate, the final price, your deposit taken off and the balance left to pay. Every figure sits on the one page, so the arithmetic is there to check before you come in.
- 05
You collect, and you pay the balance
Collect from our cold room in Emerald. Tell us a time that suits, and your box will be ready when you arrive.
Pay the balance on the invoice, by card or bank transfer, at the rate you reserved at, against the weight of what you're taking home. If you bought a single primal you can ask us to weigh it in front of you before you pay.
Everything leaves the cold room at temperature. Bring an esky if you have distance to cover.
What you pay, and when
Every cut is priced per kilo, so the weight of your box sets the price of your box.
Fifty per cent holds it for the cycle. You pay the balance on our invoice, at or before collection, at the same rate per kilo you reserved at. A box of rump caps estimated at 11 to 14 kg that comes in at 12.6 kg is charged for 12.6 kg.
Every cut has a weight range and it is on that cut's page. Come in above the top of it and we charge you for the top of the range, so that is the most you can ever pay for one. Come in under the bottom and you choose whether to take it or cancel it.
You pay for the box you actually get.
