You could try Brisbane Bulk Meats on Logan Road at Greenslopes. Just tell them what you want and they will even cryovac it into packs for you. So then just remove a pack from the freezer for the nights meal.

If you're on the southside my local at Fairfield. GE Mallon Bulk Meats will do the same thing - cheap prices for bulk orders with cryovac as well.

Hey Bugman,

How is he for price and quality? I live pretty close to fairfield and prefer to go to the "local" especially if they are good.

Shameless plug. If you are further north go to Buderim Butchery. Thats my brother & best meat on the Sunshine Coast.

Rowdy,

He has two forms of all meat - "cheap" and "quality"

Take rib fillet for example - has has whole rib fillets for $9 a kilo but you'll find it probably containing a nice piece of fat. Still alright for the general BBQ and bllody good for thin steakburgers.

However if you ask the boys they have the good rib fillet out the back which is about $15 and it will melt in your mouth. It's all I buy now when I want a good steak - I get it cut to about 1.5-2 inches and keep in rare as hell - bloody great.

Again it's like everything you get what you paid for but it's up to you to decide what you want.

Hey Jim

Saw one at the Camp Oven Festival a few years back that would have just about held a side of beef.
