    VIC - MELBOURNE - outer east

    Bills of Belgrave - 1667 Burwood Hwy Belgrave 3160
    free range meats and they smoke their own hams. great bacon, sausages. Check them out Saturdays when they run a sausage sizzle. They don't sell four quarter cuts however so no briskets.

    The Basin Meat Supply - 1319 Mountain Hwy, The Basin 3154 (my favourite)

  • If it helps, these guys also have a stall at the Clontarf farmers markets in Manning every Saturday morning - Clontarf Campus (Curtin University) Manning Road, Waterford. Had a chat to them and they said if you email or call them they are able to bring along any cuts you want. http://www.thebeefshop.com.au/ :thumbup:

    Good to know! I'm north of the river so Manning is a bit less of a trek for me, and gives me an excuse to head back to my old uni stomping ground :D

  • Tip Top butchers in Laverton Have all the cuts we like packer briskets for 13 bucks a kilo short ribs Nice big Hocks from the leg not the fourquarter
    And as much as I hate to plug them because they SUCK but costco has good meat if you want to pay $60 bucks for them to allow you the privilege of shopping there, and having to buy three of everything and then have some bold guy rifle through your property checking for mistakes at the register :cursing:
