Crafting the finest grass-fed Angus Beef in NZ... Every step of the way
We have full control over the curation of our product.
Our boutique Beef herd is bred specially for premium eating quality and we take special care at every step of the process, with no compromises along the way.
We only produce beef which has been bred and grown on our two properties. We select the breeding of our animals to produce optimum eating quality in our beef. We aim for high intramuscular fat (marbling), and ultimately a tender product full of flavour.
Our 100% grass fed Angus cattle are grown on our two properties for 24-32 months. They spend their life in a low-stress environment where they are free to roam with their same mates for the duration of their life.
Matangi Angus Beef is hung on the bone for three weeks allowing flavour and tenderness to develop. Our in-house butchery team then carefully prepares the cuts to our clients' specifications, creating a dining experience like no other!

What our loyal clients have to say...
Pre-order your favourite cuts today
Matangi Beef is not available all year round because nature does not work that way. Our calves are born in August and February and we believe they should have sufficient time to fully develop and reach their optimal condition and weight.
We grow our cattle until they are 24 to 32 months old. Only then are they well marbled and the taste is perfect. That is the reason the annual Matangi Release Program always starts in the first week of October - we call it Matangi Week. We then supply customers every week until July.
You can find all our delivery dates listed in our online shop. We encourage you to select your cuts and order as soon as possible to secure your supply.
From the backdrop of the Tuki Tuki River
Matangi is a place of mystic beauty – craggy mountain ranges, gentle rolling hills, fertile river flats, fresh spring water, native bush and 2.5 kilometres of river frontage. Our land is a paradise for our animals and for us. Matangi is the Maori word for breeze – just what we need during long hot Hawke’s Bay summers.
