I discovered this butchers on facebook of all places! I was intrigued by the prices that people were talking and decided that I should try it myself.
North lakes can be a bit of a maze to most (myself included) but Meatland is luckily not far from one of the Motorway exits. It is within eye shot of costco and bunnings. Parking is off road in a carpark at the front of the store.
The shop area is much smaller than other wholesale butchers but stocks a large variety. I was impressed with the quality and the prices were fantastic, much more reasonable than the supermarkets. Today i picked up chicken breasts for 8.99/kg, and have previously been buying them in a supermarket for 14.99/kg. There was also a large variety of sausages to pick from and they stocked boerwors for those South African expats living in Brisbane. They had a mix of grain fed beef and also grass fed beef for those paleo people like myself.
One tip when visiting this store is to bring your own jumper or jacket, and if you forget you can grab a quick $2 coffee or hot chocolate from the till area. Staff are friendly and enthusiastic about discussing cooking methods and recipes. read more
