iButcher has put together a very special pack of premium quality Australian meats that will keep a family of hungry tums fed for weeks. This deal includes an assorted box with a fantastic selection of fresh beef, lamb, pork and chicken. All iButcher products are vacuum packed, enabling you to keep them unopened for up to four weeks in your refrigerator!

The meat in your box will be selected subject to market availability, but here's what you can expect to receive:
- 3 kg Grain Fed Rump Steak or 1.5 kg Scotch Fillet or 2kg Striploin
- 1.8 kg Premium Pork Neck (Scotch Fillet) or 2 kg of Pork Loin Chops
- 1.6 kg Whole Hormone & Chemical Free Chicken or 2kg Chicken Breasts
- 1-2 kg Premium Beef, Lamb or Pork Sausages
- 1-2 kg Premium Grade Beef Mince or Diced Blade.

The idea for iButcher came about because the founders wanted it to be possible for everybody to eat premium quality Australian meats (all meats are Australian) that are great tasting and AFFORDABLE.

Now, with the click of your mouse your meat box is delivered to your door.

You might think that buying your meat from an online store is not for you, but when you consider this option against poor quality supermarket meat and your super-expensive "gourmet" butcher and you'll see the benefits.

iButcher has an ongoing relationship with a huge number of primary producers and consider themselves to be a genuine part of the agriculture community. All meat is sold through their easy to use online store, which enables them to minimise overheads, and more importantly, offer you premium quality meats at great low prices. They also promise that with the strict quality standards they have in place, you won't get any rubbish.

With free home delivery within 20km of Sydney CBD, it couldn't be easier to stock your fridge with enough food to feed a small army…

    don't think referals are allowed

      I gave the normal link and said IF YOU WANT TO GIVE A REFERRAL. They don't have to.

      Other people have them up as well

    • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 00:59

      This has been discussed before…they're perfectly fine in the description, as has been done here! ;)

      • [Deactivated] on 31/08/2010 - 03:41

        absolutely correct, referrals are allowed, but only in text, not in default link

    Not sure where they're getting their "$200 RRP" from. I think their claim of this being "50% off" is misleading.

    1.6kg Scotch Fillet +
    1.8kg Premium Pork Neck (Scotch Fillet) +
    1.6kg Whole Chicken No. 16 +
    1kg Premium Beef Sausages +
    1kg Premium Beef Mince

    comes to $118.34 (including $9 delivery) on iButcher's website. $99 isn't a significant discount over their normal prices, particularly when you're forced to buy in bulk and can't choose what comes in the box.

    i was about to say…

    • 3 kg Grain Fed Rump Steak or 1.5 kg Scotch Fillet or 2kg Striploin
    • 1.8 kg Premium Pork Neck (Scotch Fillet) or 2 kg of Pork Loin Chops
    • 1.6 kg Whole Hormone & Chemical Free Chicken or 2kg Chicken Breasts
    • 1-2 kg Premium Beef, Lamb or Pork Sausages
    • 1-2 kg Premium Grade Beef Mince or Diced Blade.

    if they included the best 3kg of waygu or angus out there… it may be $150 worth… at best

      You're joking right??? A single kg of high grade wagyu will set you back a hundred at the very least!!!

    I would never buy meat without seeing it. Premium mince can mean many things for example.

    Red lean mince at one butcher
    Grey, old crap at another.

      Yeah, definitely. "Premium" can mean anything.

    Colleague of mine recently went to a local butcher advertising BOGOF on rump steak. Funnily enough, he rode the ceramic bus for the next few days…

    it's not premium if it isn't MSA PREMIUM.

    Is it free range? It better be free range, I don't want my meat not to be free range! I heard it's the new buzzword when it comes to meat now, too. Not sure if it's common practise to keep a cow in a cage though, like they do with chooks.

    • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 01:09

      Oddly enough, the meat (including wagyu) from "feedlots"; the cow equivalent of cages; is actually sought after on the lucrative export market!!! Yeah, the "FR" cattle stomping up & down hills are tough as old boots! :p

  • Cluster on 30/08/2010 - 23:00

    iButcher? I thought no one could trawl the depths of marketing deeper than Hyundai's iLoad and Kraft's iSnack.

    "The meat in your box will be selected subject to market availability"

    heh heh heh, "meat in your box"

  • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 01:24

    If I lived in Sydney I'd give this a go, if they're any good it's a decent deal! ;)

    I dunno where some of you guys are shopping, but at any decent butcher (not supermarkets or other dodgy water pumpers) you won't leave with much after parting with a hundred bucks! That's about 3kg of my favourite New York Sirloins at my local guy, pricey but damn good steaks, melt in your mouth!!! :)

      You'd be able to walk out with the same box of meat at Vic's Meat in Sydney (one of the best meat wholesalers in Australia) for $100 during one of their fortnightly market days (where they offer a free No. 16 free-range chook for purchases over $50); there's nothing special about the pricing of this offer. For $100, you'd also be able to pick up 4kg of grain fed, 100 day aged striploin (New York sirloin) from Vic's. See their price list at: http://www.vicsmeat.com.au/

      What's more, with this offer you can't actually select what particular cuts you want; it's random and you have no idea what you're getting until you open the box.

      The main reason for my negative, though, is that they misleadingly advertised this as being "50% off" when it's clearly not; one only has to price out the same box of meat at their own website to see that the discount is less than 20%. That's a pretty poor discount for a bulk purchase, and when you've got no choice in what you get for your money.

      • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 02:31

        Ah, my bad, I didn't read this bit properly "will be selected subject to market availability, but here’s what you can expect to receive"; you are absolutely correct, random meat is not cool…I mistakenly thought you had choices of those options! :o

        Hmm, time to revoke that +ve, not gonna go so far as a neg though; I've become accustomed to a degree of value-adding or salesmanship I suppose! Cheers dude! :)

        • [Deactivated] on 31/08/2010 - 03:37

          Unfortunately you can't reverse your vote - revoke is fine but cant change from negative to positive or the other way

  • mrkorrupt on 31/08/2010 - 03:30

    1.5 kg Scotch Fillet= $23 kilo @ Aldi Bankstown = $35
    2 kg of Pork Loin Chops = $10.99 Kilo from Aldi Bankstown = $22
    2kg Chicken Breasts = $6.99kg joe's Meat Centro Bankstown = $14
    1-2 kg Premium Beef, Lamb or Pork Sausages - $6kg Bush's Meat Centro Bankstown = $12
    2 kg Premium Grade Beef Mince - $6.99kg Farm Fresh Meat / Bush's Meat Centro Bankstown = $14

    $35 + $22 + $14 + $22 + $14 = $107 :-)

    No Free Delivery,

    You get to pick the specific cuts you want and specific size of breast and steak and see what you get before you get it and going outside and smelling the fresh air instead of sitting behind the screen and doing your shopping is PRICELESS

    • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 03:38

      Lol, Fresh air in Bankstown, who are you trying to kid? :p

    • [Deactivated] on 31/08/2010 - 03:38

      You forget, you can also buy these daily (or as required), rather than having to freeze some of the meat, and freezing it does affect the flavour

      • StewBalls on 31/08/2010 - 03:50

        Depends who you ask; some will say it affects flavour, some say only texture, some say both! I'm in the texture camp myself! ;)

        I'm happy to freeze supermarket meat, can't really ruin that much more anyway; but those nice juicy Sirloins I mentioned earlier get consumed without ever seeing a single ice crystal! :D

        • polkadots610 on 31/08/2010 - 11:37

          And I may need to get a bigger freezer to accomodate all these meat!

  • Save Medicare on 31/08/2010 - 06:21

    To be fair they're probably aged/cryovacced for acidity, which would cost more in the supermarket.

  • Cheeper on 31/08/2010 - 11:24

    A bargain…??? Not quite there for me.
