From premium cuts and dry aged beef to house-made pies, sausages, hams, bacon and ready-to-cook favourites, Rathmines Butchery brings six generations of butchery knowledge to every product in the cabinet.
Whether you are planning the weekly shop, firing up the BBQ, feeding a crowd or looking for something special, start with the range below.
For 30 years, Rathmines Butchery has served locals from the same shop in the heart of Rathmines.
Now led by Jason and Jenna Smith, the business continues a sixth-generation butchery tradition with the same family values, honest advice and quality products locals know and trust.
The refreshed brand marks the next chapter for the shop: a new look, the same local butcher.
Most of the best things in the shop are made right here at Rathmines Butchery.
Hot from the shop or ready to take home and cook, our pies are made on site with staple favourites including chunky beef, cheese and bacon, curried beef, pepper steak, and brisket and jalapeño. Seasonal and small-batch flavours are also available from time to time.
Our sausages are made with real ingredients, not just flavourings. When we say ginger and shallot, tomato and onion, or cracked pepper and Worcestershire, that is what goes into the recipe.
Our hams and bacon are cured and smoked the old-fashioned way, using our own recipes and processes. It takes time, but that is the point.
From jerky to marinated cuts, kebabs and family-friendly meal options, the cabinet is always changing with something new to try.
Good butchery starts with good produce. Rathmines Butchery works with trusted suppliers and selects products for quality, consistency and flavour.
The team still breaks down body beef in-house, including Angus and Angus-cross beef sourced through Alexander Downs, with majority of lambs also sourced through this supplier. Chicken comes from Lailonica Poultry, eggs from The Local Yolk, and selected Angus and brisket products are sourced from Riverina and Pinnacle where they meet the quality standard Jason is looking for.
From generous hot box catering to fully catered functions, Rathmines Butchery can help feed a crowd with quality meats, practical packages and the same care you expect from the shop.
Our catering options are ideal for weddings, birthdays, family gatherings, sporting events, community functions and workplace events. Choose from roasted meats, salads, potato bake, desserts and tailored catering options depending on the size and style of your event.
Loved by Rathmines locals for weekly shops, weekend barbecues, Christmas hams, catering and everyday family meals.
