ABOUT
THE DORRIGO BUTCHER
We started The Dorrigo Butcher in 2019 as a couple passionate about our local region and the food it produces. Our Butchery has been the local butcher's shop in Dorrigo for 70 years. We source the best produce grown in our region and are confident you will find it some of the best meat available.
ABOUT OUR BEEF
Our beef is sourced directly from farmers on the Dorrigo Plateau. It is all pasture raised on the lush paddocks surrounding Dorrigo. Mostly we source Angus and Angus X Charolais cattle, and less often breeds like Speckled Park.
As we are a whole beast butchery, we break down the entire carcass and utilised every piece, from the tongue to the tail. This means we can also custom cut any piece of meat you would like.
ABOUT OUR LAMB
The Dorrigo Plateau is not generally sheep country but we have one grower of exceptional quality lamb on the Plateau – Demlane Farm. We source our lamb from Demlane Farm as much of the year as possible (7-9months). Demlane Farm produce a meat breed called LambPro crossed with the heritage breed Hampshire Down. The result is highly marbled, tender lamb that is some of the best available. When it's outside of the Demlane lamb season we source from 100km west around Guyra NSW.
ABOUT OUR PORK
We source our pork directly from Mirrabooka Pork, 100km north of Dorrigo at Lawrence NSW. Mirrabooka Pork is certified free-range. We also use Mirrabooka Pork for our award-winning woodsmoked ham and bacon.
