About Beard Brothers Nz

Handcrafting small goods with natural casings, heritage recipes, and free-farmed New Zealand meats, this Greenmeadows butchery specialises in traditional sausages, patties, and saveloys. The range features varieties such as boerewors, beef sausages, and pork and cress, alongside options like beef and blue cheese, beef and spice, and old-school sausage rolls. Using natural casings allows the bangers to hold their shape and develop a proper snap over heat, while keeping out fillers and added MSG.

Customer feedback on the range is decidedly mixed. Fans praise the pork and cress sausages and single out the bangers for being juicy and flavourful, while others note that certain batches—particularly the spiced beef and the beef and blue cheese—can be overly fatty, occasionally leaking loose filling during cooking. Price is also a recurring point of caution, with buyers noting they sit at a premium compared with everyday supermarket brands. Based at 6 Gloucester Street in Greenmeadows, Napier, their products are distributed locally and into supermarkets across the country.
