Why Choose Biodynamic & Organic Steaks?
If you’ve ever wondered why some steaks taste better than others, it usually comes down to how the cattle were raised. At Rendina’s Butchery, our steaks are sourced from grass-fed, free-range Victorian farms and are biodynamic certified.
This means:
-
Better flavour and tenderness: Grass-fed cattle produce meat that’s naturally rich and juicy.
-
Ethical and sustainable practices: Animals are free to roam pastures, with high welfare standards.
-
No chemicals or additives: Our beef is free from hormones, antibiotics, and artificial preservatives.
Choosing biodynamic beef isn’t just a culinary decision; it’s a choice that supports local farmers and ethical farming practices.

How to Cook the Perfect Grass-Fed Steak
Question: How should I cook my organic or biodynamic steak?
Answer: Grass-fed steaks are leaner and more delicate than grain-fed alternatives, so cooking medium-rare is often recommended to retain natural juices. Here are some tips:
-
Pan-sear: Use a hot pan, a touch of oil, and sear each side for 2–3 minutes.
-
Grill: Preheat the grill, and cook to medium-rare while turning occasionally.
-
Rest your steak: Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before serving to enhance flavour.
Remember, the right cut and the right technique are the secrets to a perfect steak every time.
