Farmer’s Market

This online butchery specialises in grassfed Australian beef and has everything you need for a delicious steak dinner or barbecue. Owner Emma Pike recommends the ribeye as one of the best “no-fail” meats for barbecue that are easy to find in Singapore. The fat running through the meat makes it flavourful, tender and hard to overcook. But, if you’re watching your calories, the tenderloin comes recommended as a leaner cut that’s still tender.

Farmer’s Market sources its beef from farms on the southern coast of Australia and in New Zealand and chooses grass-fed beef as it’s leaner, tastier and higher in nutrients than intensively farmed beef. All the meat is 100 percent traceable from the farm gate to your plate and guaranteed free of hormones and antibiotics.

Home delivery is available island-wide five days per week, with free delivery on orders over $100.

The butchery also offers a selection of ready-to-cook items including classics like beef Wellington and premarinated kebabs. You can also shop a range of over 20 sausages. Next-day delivery is available at $10 for orders above $80 received before 2pm.

Huber’s Butchery

A favourite amongst local and expat families, Huber’s Butchery has established itself as a go-to specialty store for all things meat. If you’re a fan of lamb, try Margra lamb. This premium meat is from the pasture-raised Australian White breed of sheep. The result of years of careful breeding and research involving over 20,000 embryo transfers, this special breed has elevated levels of Omega-3 long-chain fatty acids and is exclusively available at the butchery. The meat boasts fine micro-marbling and thick subcutaneous fat, making its taste and texture superior to many of its counterparts on the market. Need more reason to try? Margra lamb ambassador and Australian celebrity chef Mark Best proclaims that it’s the best lamb he’s ever eaten!

Hubers butchery - meat shop

Also available at Huber’s Butchery are Brisbane Valley Protein quails from Australia – the largest table quails in the world. Derived from the Coturnix Quail variety, the super-sized quails are the result of careful selection over time by Hunter Valley farmer Charlie Scott, who painstakingly picked bigger quails and effectively developed his own breed after 30 years. Instead of the usual 180 to 200 grams, these birds weigh 300 to 400 grams each, making them easier to cook and more enjoyable to eat. Raised in large, naturally ventilated barns in Queensland, the birds are also hormone and antibiotic-free. Purchase them at Huber’s Butchery or try them at Morsels, winner of World Gourmet Summit Restaurant of the Year in 2017.

Open Taste

This online platform gives consumers in Singapore the opportunity to shop perishable products from around the globe at wholesale prices. Prices here are often 30 to 50 percent lower than in supermarkets and specialty online grocers; plus, they’ll deliver your items within 36 hours of ordering.

Open Taste - Meat Shops

For meats, a must-try is the Black Angus ground beef from Australia ($5.99 for 250g). Free of hormones and antibiotics, the free-range beef is a delicious and versatile addition to a wide range of dishes, including tomato-based pastas, easy stir-fries, and meatballs. There’s also a neat selection of premium grass-fed wagyu for days when you want to treat yourself (or your date!) with an indulgent home-cooked meal. Top tip: do your shopping by category – the meats are split into different groups like fresh poultry, frozen meat and sausages, which makes navigation a breeze.

Delivery details: Premium members (from $29.99 per year) get unlimited free delivery on all orders over $49, plus a two percent reward on all purchases and two free samples. For non-premium members, delivery is free on orders with bulk items over $150 and orders without bulk items over $49. Smaller orders cost between $4.95 to $6.95 to deliver; refer to the online store for more details.

The Fishwives

Alongside its range of seafood, The Fishwives has a butchery section that offers an excellent range of Australian grass-fed beef, New Zealand lamb and certified free-range pork from Gooralie and Borrowdale in Australia. For the latter, the pigs have full access to the outdoors, as well as fresh water and feed. This results in all-natural pork products that are flavourful, succulent and ethically produced.

The fishwives Singapore - Best place for buying meat

If you love lamb, check out Te Mana Lamb from New Zealand, sold exclusively at The Fishwives. The superior sheep specifically feed on the pastures of the New Zealand high country, and the meat is known to be higher in omega-3 and marbling than regular lamb.

Cape Grim beef, raised on nothing but rich pastures, is another meaty pick. For a decadent date night at home, Altair wagyu combines the marbling and sumptuous texture of traditional wagyu with the clean minerality of pasture-raised cattle. This unique breeding creates a luxurious melt-in-your-mouth flavour.

Order at least $100 to enjoy free delivery! Delivery is six days a week.

How to cook at Tomahawk Steak

After getting a prime cut of steak from some of the best butchers in Singapore, the next step is cooking it! Grilling a quality piece of meat is, for some people, an intimidating prospect. But making a great steak at home is easy! All you really need is some seasoning and a meat thermometer to hit the perfect doneness. Here’s a quick guide to cooking a tomahawk (a thick bone-in ribeye) from the grill gurus at Weber.

Instructions

  1. Heat an outdoor grill or preheat your oven to 190°C.
  2. Season the steaks generously with salt and pepper, using about one teaspoon per 450 grams of steak.
  3. Sear the steak for three to four minutes on each side.
  4. Transfer the steak to a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 52°C. This will take about 30 minutes, but use a meat thermometer for best results.
  5. Let the steak rest for five to ten minutes before serving

Tips

• How to tell when your steak is done: 50°C rare; 55°C medium rare; 60°C medium; 65°C medium well; 70°C well done.
• Don’t have a grill? No problem! Sear your steak on the stove before placing it in the oven. Use a large heavy skillet, preferably cast iron.
• If you want to keep your steak in the grill to finish cooking, you’ll need to cook over indirect heat. Keep the lid of the grill closed and adjust the flames to keep the temperature at 200°C.
