20.01.2022 Great Southern Pinnacle is a beef brand of Great Southern that is very popular amongst butcher shops and restaurants. Pinnacle was developed when we saw the high quality of marbling scores coming through on our grass fed, Farm Assurance cattle. With a marbling score of 2+ it is not uncommon to see this product on menus across Australia and globally as well. Pinnacle plays a very important role in our family of brands as it consistently eats with a marbling score of 2+ to 3+ with Little Joe sitting just above as our most luxurious brand boasting unbelievable marbling of 4+.

18.01.2022 Our cattle spend their days grazing on pastures overlooking some of the most untouched and beautiful coast lines in the world. Our program has strict requirements around animal welfare and handling practices. Stress-free cattle lead to a better eating quality for you.

18.01.2022 Naturally these tomahawks are the hero of any dinner party. Using the reverse sear method pop in the oven first so the heat can penetrate a thick cut. Bake low and slow to your doneness preference, and then finish off the job on the barbeque. For perfect results we recommend a trusty meat thermometer. Served as a centre table dish this cut will happily feed 2-4 people.

17.01.2022 Sustainability in our business is vital. For us it starts at square one, on farm. We are committed to using our global scale for good.

16.01.2022 Great Southern starts on farm, providing our livestock with the best feed going around, grass.

13.01.2022 Check out this glowing review of Pure South Food Co. who are providing Melbourne with Tasmania's top produce - including King Island Beef - delivered direct to their door.

10.01.2022 We took some of Australia's leading chefs and wholesalers to King Island, Tasmania, to meet the farmers and see how King Island Beef is raised. Our guests from across Australia were amazed by King Island's remoteness and clean air. The producers took pride in telling their part of the story about how the beef is raised. After the farm visits, lunch was a great opportunity to meet and greet the King Island producers. We also announced our industry-first and blockchain-backed... traceability system (visit www.findmybeef.com for more information). Guests then geared up to tour the processing plant and learn about the next stage in the journey, where hygiene and people safety are paramount to King Island Beef. Meat and fat colour are among many traits measured to ensure the beef fits the strict brand specifications. Meat Standards Australia (MSA) is a critical grading criteria that all beef must meet. After a full day learning how King Island Beef is raised and processed, everyone came together at Pure South Dining in Melbourne to taste the final result.

08.01.2022 It’s been coined lately that our Little Joe beef brand is the Rolls Royce of beef. We couldn’t agree more. This beef sports 4+ marbling along with being 100% grass fed, GMO free and antibiotic free. Little Joe is exclusively found on menus at top tier restaurants and niche butchers that handle only the best beef on the market.

06.01.2022 What’s on your winter weekend menu? You’ll usually see the tenderloin served as Eye Fillet Steaks, but we love this cut for roasting too. For the best result, remove your trimmed fillet from the fridge 45 minutes before cooking - this ensures you get an even cook. Season with salt and pepper and oil the meat instead of the pan - this adds to the texture. ... Sear the meat all over in your pan to get a tasty crust and then cook in the oven on a low heat. Make sure you have a meat thermometer handy to get it cooked to your preferred doneness. We prefer it on the rare to medium rare side at Great Southern. And most importantly, don’t forget to rest the meat - but don’t wrap it tightly in foil because this will cause the meat to sweat and lose the delicious moisture.

06.01.2022 Try something a little different this Labor Day weekend, give our grass fed Australian Lamb a go. Our lamb has a mild, sweet flavor and typically has less marbling than beef, so you can enjoy a leaner meat. Our Lamb Racks are the perfect size to be roasted whole or cut into individual Lamb Rib chops and grilled. For quick and easy Lamb Rib chops, marinade the chops in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, rosemary, salt & pepper for 30 minutes. Grill over a medium to high heat for 2-3 minutes on either side for medium rare. Rest for 5 minutes and then enjoy with your favorite salad.

05.01.2022 Time for a producer spotlight! Mark and Anita Poulsen are an example of how our producers are a breed of their own. Originally hailing from South East Queensland, the Poulsen's are no stranger to dry country. Their passion for producing grass-fed cattle led them to relocate to King Island, where the country is lucious and green all year round. Anita sums up why it was all worth it stating, Sometimes, I like to take a moment to sit up on top of a coastal hill and just look a...round at the storybook scenery. The Poulsen's are just one of many producer families that prioritise their love for grass-fed beef, and see a bright future working as a part of the Great Southern Family.

03.01.2022 All of our producers and livestock buyers have a farm gate relationship, working together to ensure the best quality livestock are chosen for all Great Southern brands. We do not source from the sale yard.
