Pure South Handpicked Venison is a proven gold medal winner, recognised for exceptional tenderness, flavour, and quality at the 2024 Outstanding NZ Food Producer Awards.
Across our range, excellence is the standard. Our Venison Five Rib Rack and our French Lamb Rack each claimed gold at the Outstanding NZ Food Producer Awards. Our 55-Day Aged Beef Ribeye was crowned the Best Grass-Fed Steak in the World in 2023.
This is red meat craftsmanship at its finest—proven, awarded, and exceptional.
We believe exceptional flavour takes time. We undertake a precise, controlled ageing process. Ageing for 21+ days allows the enzymes to enhance tenderness, depth, and richness—a distinction that sets us apart from standard frozen venison.
Aged to perfection with freshness locked in, Handpicked is truly exceptional meat. The proof is in the eating.
Imagine the “earthy smell” coming from grassy paddocks, the vegetable garden or foraging for mushrooms. A savoury presence captured in roasted meat together with natural saltiness.
Flavours are earthy, sweet and savoury all at once, with traces of natural umami and the essence of roasted meat.
Together with our farmer shareholders and global partners, we are building a future where exceptional meat is produced with care for the environment, animals, and communities.
