Ordering
What does the price work out to per kilogram?
R2016 for 10 kg during our introductory offer, R201.60 a kilogram for the best eating parts of the animal, trimmed, dry-aged 7 days and packed cut by cut. The offer runs for the first 300 cases; from case 301 the case is R2520. Delivery is calculated at checkout.
Can I choose my own cuts?
No. A case is 10 kg of the best eating parts of one lamb, packed cut by cut: whole leg, rib, shoulder, two shanks, six loin chops, six rib chops, half neck and breakfast sausage.
How soon after I order does it ship?
Your case is already aged and packed, so there is no wait. Order before 10am and it is delivered the next working day.
Delivery
Which days do you deliver, and where?
Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town. Order before 10am on a weekday and it is delivered the next working day. We deliver Monday to Friday, so an order placed on a Friday or over the weekend arrives on Monday. Delivery is calculated at checkout.
Do you deliver outside Johannesburg, Pretoria and Cape Town?
On request. Message us with your town and we will tell you whether we can get a frozen case to you.
The meat
What does dry ageing do?
The carcass hangs on the bone for 7 days. It loses moisture, which is what concentrates the flavour.
Does freezing change the taste?
No. We blast freeze to -20C straight after dry ageing. Fast freezing forms small ice crystals, so the meat thaws without losing its juice, and trained tasters cannot tell dry-aged, blast-frozen lamb from fresh.
Is the meat halaal?
No. The meat is not halaal.
How much freezer space do I need?
About one freezer drawer per 6 kg. The lamb case is 10 kg, so two drawers. Every cut is packed on its own, so you can spread it across a fridge freezer.
