Premium beef, lamb, pork, chicken, smoked bacon, award winning sausages, small goods, heat & eat ready meals. All beef and lamb in the Waipawa Butchery shops are finished on Patangata Station, 15 and 35kms away from the Waipawa and Havelock North shops respectively. We own the Station and we own the butcheries, so we can be in full control of the entire process to ensure consistent quality meat for our customers. Our animals nibble away 365 days of the year on the most delicious mix of nutrient rich green plants: clover, plantain, kale and a range of the land of the Long White Cloud’s natural grasses, that surround the hills of Patangata in Central Hawke’s Bay. The chicken and pork will always be sourced from the finest suppliers who share our farming philosophy. The chicken is all from Bostock Brothers Free Range Organic Chicken farms which is a Hawke’s Bay family owned chicken business. Bostock chickens are grown naturally, so as a result the meat is better formed, and is of a higher quality with a superior taste. Our pork is 100% New Zealand-sourced, mainly from Fresh Pork NZ - a family owned pork business based in Canterbury. As the country’s leading pork supplier, they operate under the PigCare™ accreditation system. This ensures the pigs have been grown in NZ under world-class welfare standards. They are free from added growth hormones, unnecessary antibiotics, and are compliant with New Zealand food safety standards. All our cattle, sheep and pigs are gender specific – they are female because female meat isn’t filled with hormones. It is more succulent, juicy, tender and flavoursome.
