All of our beef is from our parent company Stanbroke Beef. This is important as the quality of the beef and ultimately your eating experience is determined by the care that has been shown to the animal during each stage of the production process. Any undue stress the animal experiences at any stage of its life is detrimental to the beef it will produce.

As Stanbroke owns and operates each stage of the production process, strict best practices are followed to ensure the animals always receive the highest of care and that’s why at Peter Augustus we can guarantee the quality of our product each and every time.

We offer a wide range of premium beef including grass-fed, grain-fed, Angus, Black Onyx, Wagyu, and Pure Wagyu, with options to suit everything from everyday meals to special occasions. From leaner, classic beef cuts to highly marbled Wagyu, there’s something for every preference and cooking style.

Our SB marble score measures the level of intramuscular fat (the fine white flecks within the meat), which directly influences tenderness, juiciness, and flavour. The higher the score, the richer and more buttery the eating experience.

• SB 0–2: Leaner cuts with a traditional beef flavour and firmer texture
  
• SB 3–5: Balanced marbling, offering a great mix of flavour and tenderness
  
• SB 6–10: Highly marbled, delivering an indulgent, melt-in-your-mouth experience

Peter Augustus is a craft butcher store by Stanbroke, one of Australia’s most well-known and respected cattle and beef producers. Peter Augustus was established because we believe everybody should be able to access the very best produce regardless of their budget.

Each order is packed in a thermal carton lined with VISYCELL® sustainable insulation, a food-grade, biodegradable material designed to maintain a consistent chilled temperature throughout transit.

You’ll receive a text message prior to delivery with tracking details and an estimated arrival time. Deliveries are typically made between 8:00am and 6:30pm.

While we’re unable to guarantee a specific delivery window, you will be kept updated with a tracking link sent the day before and/or on the day of delivery.

While we may allow requests like “deliver in the afternoon,” we cannot guarantee this due to the schedule of our courier partners.

Couriers will not enter locked or gated properties unless you provide specific instructions in the order notes. If there’s a dog or restricted access, your order will be left in a safe, accessible spot.

Not necessarily. Your order is packed in tested, food-safe insulated packaging with ice packs to maintain temperature for a period after delivery. Couriers will typically leave it in a shaded area and notify you once delivered.

If you won’t be home, consider using a work address or providing safe drop instructions. We recommend avoiding extended periods unattended, as this may affect food safety.

Yes! Our boxes are made with VISYCELL recyclable materials. We encourage customers to recycle them after use.

Yes, our butchers are happy to accommodate custom cutting requests where possible and safe to do so. For example, you may like a rump cap portioned into steaks. Simply specify your preferred thickness or weight per piece, such as approximately 2.5cm or 300g portions.

You can add these instructions in the “View Cart” section before checkout using the notes box or send them through to us via email.

When bulk cuts are portioned into steaks, a small amount of weight loss is completely normal. This can occur due to:

• Natural moisture loss within the meat
  
• Trimming of fat, sinew or gristle for a cleaner finish
  
• End cuts and portioning during slicing
  

Our butchers always aim to maximise your yield while preparing a premium, ready-to-cook product.

If retaining full weight is important, you can request your cut whole or ask for all trim to be included with your order.

Vacuum sealing removes air from the packaging, slowing oxidation and bacterial growth to extend freshness and shelf life. When stored correctly at 0–4°C, you can expect the following guide:

• Beef primals & whole cuts: up to 28 days
  
• Beef (steaks): up to 21 days
  
• Beef (bone-in): up to 14 days
  
• Lamb: up to 28 days
  
• Pork: up to 10 days
  
• Ham: up to 30 days
  
• Sausages: up to 9 days
  
• Chicken (frozen): up to 12 months
  
• Salmon (frozen): up to 12 months
  
• Smoked salmon: up to 30 days
  

For longer storage, keep products frozen at -18°C, where vacuum sealed meat can last 1 to 3 years depending on the cut and consistency of temperature.

Once opened, the shelf life reverts to that of standard fresh products, so we recommend consuming promptly.

For longer delivery routes, some items may arrive partially or fully frozen to ensure they remain within safe temperatures during transit.

Our beef is vacuum sealed to lock in freshness and extend shelf life by removing oxygen. This can cause the meat to appear darker or slightly purplish due to natural myoglobin, which is completely normal.

Once opened, simply let your steak rest out of the packaging for 10 to 20 minutes. As it’s exposed to air, it will “bloom” back to its natural rich red colour. Rest assured, your beef is fresh and perfectly safe to enjoy.
