Excellent quality meats. Even though it comes frozen, once thawed you can see it is very fresh (compared to what’s sold at supermarkets). It’s worth paying that little bit of extra for the great quality — the meat literally tastes better! Delivery service is very convenient. I appreciate that I’m not locked in with my original choices, as there… Read more · 1
is flexible options to change contents before each delivery - great way to try different cuts and sample multiple products. Also great service for doing meal prep, as I can plan out my menu for the next few weeks based on the choices I make for each delivery. Takes out the stress of going to the shops to buy protein! I would highly recommend.

I love the wild salmon and white snapper fillets from Butcher Crowd. It’s my main purchase because I’m not a red meat eater. And both types of fish taste amazing. I have bought chicken and it’s also great. Delivery is so easy and so well packed with insulation and ice that if I cannot pick up from my delivery destination for a few hours my produce… Read more · 1

Have ordered from Butcher Crowd for 2 years. Very happy with the quality and price, compared to other similar services. Just received my latest box and they continue to add new items. I wanted to try out the ox cheek as a slow cooker dish..can't wait to try. The Barramundi and Salmon are my favourite. You can tell the difference in colour of the… Read more · 1
salmon compared to farm raised salmon, I'll never go back. And the salmon patties x2 are 100% meat with no additives and I add my own ingredients (gf breadcrumbs, ginger, garlic, eggs and shallots) and get 4 patties out of the 2 - very tasty! Also, it's important to me to support producers that use sustainable, no chemicals or hormones in their practices. For instance, last year, the Barramundi were not available due to a supply-demand issue, and that's ok. The fish are wild caught, so if there aren't any available, taking care not to overfish stocks, consumers must take that into consideration. Thank you to the farmers and fisherman who go the extra mile and not take short cuts, to provide healthy ingredients for our health. Cheers.
Genuinely impressed with the quality of this product (meat). I initially decided to try it out solely because they were advertising a free knife with the first order. I thought it was a win since I've always wanted my own kitchen knife as I've started expanding my culinary skills. I eat a lot of meat; generally beef steaks, lamb chops and lamb… Read more · 1
roasts. I don't know if it's just me, but I've always had a hard time finding good quality butchers. Yeah sure, the local one would sell meat but I'm talking about marbled beef. I know of a place in Alexandria but I'm not keen to drive close to an hour for a meat haul all the time. Anyway, I came across Butcher Crowd; I've come across them before but I would get dissuaded once I reached the checkout because of how much it would show up on screen, $170 for 8 steaks. At the time, I thought it was too much but in hindsight I realise that it was because I never bought that many steaks in one go before, so in the past when I saw that amount, I just exited the window on my computer. Until, as I mentioned before, I came across them again but this time they were advertising a free knife and that really caught my eye. I did the calculations and realised that 8 steaks for $170 works out to be just over $21/steak. I usually go to woolies and get steaks for $18 but I decided what the heck, and proceeded with the purchase. I received the package and since they were deep freezer, I was able to keep it in my freezer for a while, so I took my time going through them all. At first, I wasn't all that impressed and just thought it was like steaks I could just get anywhere. It took me over 2 months to go through them all just because I was trying to condition my palate to a wider range of foods at that time. Anyway, it got to a time when I had to get more steaks, this time back to woolies like I usually do and I swear, i thought those steaks were off or something because the quality was lacking. It wasn't off but something was definitely amiss but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. I bought and ate another local steak a few days later. Nope. Still the same feeling. It wasn't until the second steak that I realised that I got so used to the Butcher Crowd meats that I was astonished as to how GOOD the product actually is that I found myself making another purchase and signing up to a subscription. Since then, I haven't turned away. I HIGHLY recommend these guys, even to just trial it out one time. You won't be disappointed.
TLDR; meat good.
I think Butcher Crowd is a great initiative. I would take ages in the meat aisle at the grocery store, reading and deciphering all of the labels and comparing prices to get the best quality meat for the best price. This takes the guesswork out of all of that and guarantees I’m getting locally sourced, good quality meat. I love the ability to get… Read more · 1
clean sausages and bacon too! That is a major plus. The meat is always very tasty and we’ve served it to people who have noticed the difference in the taste of the meat.
However, the reason for the 4 stars is because although it feels like a good deal, when I calculate the actual price I end up paying per item, it is quite a bit more than what I’d expect to pay at the grocery store or butcher. The other thing too is the portions of most of the meat are quite small. It works fine for our household of two, but I can imagine this being very tricky to get the value out of it for larger households. Suddenly you’re having to use multiple packets of meat for one dinner… this also gets annoying for cuts like brisket or roasts meats that are traditionally large cuts, but with Butcher Crowd they are relatively small cuts. I think it would be a lot more beneficial if there was more control over the portion size of each meat you are getting when you order it and then the order is priced accordingly. More like going to an actual butcher…
I would also love to see things like pasture raised eggs available for delivery and more nose to tail offers (like mince mixed with organs) or more affordable options to purchase the less desirable cuts of animals and bones for broth.

Excellent quality - with all the concerns about farmed fish, this company provides a safe, fresh and high quality option. Incredible service and the highest of quality products. I absolutely recommend them to everyone Show reply
My family and I love our Butcher Crowd meat and seafood. The beautiful flavours and tenderness make our meals so enjoyable plus it's so good to have peace of mind that we’re not eating any nasties. Worth the extra $$ to bless yourself and your loved ones. Show reply
We have been using butcher crowd for more than a year now and they never disappoint. Very rarely do I keep a subscription this long but the quality is so good and delivery is reliable and consistent and very easy to change or reschedule if needed. Also I love that you can pick and choose what meat you want each month so it’s not always the same thing. Thanks BC! Show reply
I’m very impressed with the quality and taste of the meat. It is dearer than the supermarket but the size of the meat stays the same when cooked and doesn’t shrink like other meats from the shops. I would’ve given 5 stars except I would like a bit more selection eg: leg of lamb etc. I just recently referred a friend and was a bit jealous when she received a chef knife as a welcome gift but seriously the meat and quality is great and so tasty Show reply
The produce is all excellent quality. The steak and lamb are super tender and it’s very convenient to have it turn up on your doorstep. Most importantly I get to support ethical farming! Show reply
