Champion Victorian Meat Producer for 2025

We're beyond thrilled to announce that Tasman Butchers has been crowned the Champion Victorian Meat Producer of 2025! 

This prestigious award is part of Melbourne Royal's independent program, judged by industry experts using strict criteria. Products are assessed on flavour, texture, aroma, appearance, and overall balance. The coveted trophy is awarded to the producer with the highest average score from their top two scoring entries—and for us, that was our two gold medal-winning sausage varieties: Westmidlands Pepper & Worcestershire Beef Sausages and South-East Asian Red Thai Chilli Beef Sausages!

Here's what Melbourne Royal had to say about us:

"Tasman Butchers have built a reputation for excellence in Victorian smallgoods, combining traditional butchery skills with carefully sourced local ingredients. Their Westmidlands Pepper & Worcestershire Beef Sausages exemplify their dedication to flavour, quality, and artisanal craftsmanship, earning them recognition as a champion Victorian meat producer."
