Description

In this episode of Paddock Talk, Bianca and Dave head to the stunning Dorrigo Plateau in NSW to meet Steve and Michelle, the husband-and-wife team behind Eungella Shorthorns. As fourth-generation farmers, they’ve built a family-run stud producing some of the most marbled, flavoursome beef in the country – a legacy carried on with their three kids and a whole lot of heart.


You’ll hear how world-class genetics and a deep respect for the land result in steaks that truly live up to the name “a cut above.” Steve and Michelle share the realities of farming life, from weather challenges to raising a family on the land, and open up about the frustrations of seeing their premium beef sell for hundreds of dollars while farmers are often left struggling.


Together, they explore what ethical farming really looks like, why partnering with Our Cow has given them stability and pride in their work, and how reconnecting farmers with families is reshaping the future of Aussie food. Plus, don’t miss the recipe segment inspired by Hayden Quinn’s cook-up on the farm – a rib fillet dish that celebrates the Eungella Shorthorn at its best.
