About High Steaks Homekill

A home kill butchery at 279 Rickit Road in Te Awamutu that processes beef, pork, sheep and wild game for customers across the Waikato. The butchers prepare the cuts a customer chooses, and the website says the team has worked in abattoirs, supermarkets, wholesale and small goods, and aims for supermarket quality at home kill. Beef is hung for at least seven days, and longer on request.

Roasts are vacuum packed as standard. Steaks and chops can be vacuum packed for an extra fee, with at least two steaks to a pack, and offal can be removed for a fee. The website says vacuum packing keeps meat from freezer burn and lasts about 20 days in the fridge once thawed. A gluten-free range includes sausages, saveloys, patties, salami, marinades and stuffing. The website says wait times are generally two to eight weeks.
