Green Meadows Beef Challenges Kiwis to Stuff the Turkey This Christmas with Launch of Festive Blitzen’s Beef Box
Green Meadows Beef, producers of 100% grass-fed, free-range Angus beef from South Taranaki are calling on New Zealanders
to ditch roast turkey and other traditional meals this Christmas in favour of something more exciting. To celebrate
this, the family owned brand is launching a special 7kg festive beef box in the run up to Christmas. The $139 Blitzen's
Box will contain a range of aged Green Meadows Beef cuts so New Zealanders can be ready for their Christmas roasts and
barbecues over the holiday season.
“Most people associate Christmas with roast turkey or a glazed ham but beef is definitely becoming more popular,” says
Green Meadows Beef director, Nick Carey. “In the UK, festive surveys have shown that turkey is actually falling out of
favour and roast beef has now climbed to the second most popular Christmas dinner. It’s great to see people considering
more options and we’re hoping Kiwis will follow suit.”
“Premium grass-fed Angus beef is incredibly versatile, which makes it an especially good choice for a New Zealand
Christmas,” adds Nick. “If you want a traditional dinner, you can roast a larger cut, perhaps with fresh garlic and
rosemary for flavour. However, if you’re after something more casual, throwing some steaks on the barbecue is just as
likely to impress food-loving guests. Regardless of the cuts you choose, we’re sure our beef will make you look like a
star in the kitchen to your friends and family.”
The Green Meadows Beef Blitzen's Box will contain:
500g Eye Fillet Steak
500g Scotch Fillet Steak
1kg Sirloin Roast
500g Rump Steak
1.5kg Schnitzel
1kg Hamburger Patties
1kg Premium Beef Mince
1kg MSG, Soy and Gluten-Free Beef Sausages
As a Christmas bonus, Green Meadows Beef will also be including a 500g pack of Stir-fry Beef and a Satay Beef Stir-fry
recipe, courtesy of New Zealand recipe app, Fast, Fresh & Tasty.
The Blitzen’s Box is now available through www.greenmeadowsbeef.co.nz for sales until 21 December 2013.
