Congratulations to our NSW/ACT ABG members who supported our Lamb Autumn Roast promotion and competition. A special mention must be made to the boys from Tender Value Meats Warringah Mall, finishing in the top 5 for customer entries. Well done! The phones and the ABG Facebook page were running hot here at MLA with many of your customers reaching out to find their nearest ABG butcher and buy a lamb roast. This is a great indication of the awareness of Australian Butchers' Guild butchers by the community and their willingness to support independent retailers. Winter is creeping up on us and it’s time to break out those comforting slow cooked favourites as part of your offering. Think Beef Shin or Gravy Beef, Brisket, Chuck, Ribs and much more.
The ABG educational tour to Far North Queensland (FNQ) was held from the 4th to the 8th May. A contingent of VIC/TAS members joined fellow QLD members to experience red meat retailing in FNQ with visits to shops in Townsville, Tully, Babinda, Cairns, Port Douglas, Mossman and other areas. Attendees saw a variety of retail shops that ranged from the traditional to the downright quirky. In addition to visiting shops, the tour also included a visit to Horizon Meats Beef Jerky processing operations and a tour of the family run and MSA registered Bingal Bay Beef, one of the country’s only completely closed production chains. It was a fantastic week for all. Have a look at the ABG facebook page for pics and check out the latest Australian Butcher to learn more about the Bingil Bay operations.

Now that the days are cooling off, it’s time to dust off your Beefing Up and Racking Up Your Profits manuals and include homely value adding recipes in your cabinets as part of your meat offerings. The recipes are all tried and tested and designed to boost your profits. Keep an eye out for our next breakfast in June where some of these recipes will be demonstrated and if you haven’t got the books they will be available on the day. Invites out soon! Remember foodservice trends often pull through into the retail sector; a good example is a rib eye on the bone. 10 years ago these were a specialty cut found only in few retail shops but are now a best seller for a lot of retailers. Beef ribs are a very popular item in the foodservice sector and are on many menus in many ways. A definite winner when feeding a crowd! Check out our latest Australian Butcher journal for some inspiration.

That winter chill has come in quick and fast! Stuck for ideas? Those who attended our last workshop won’t be! I would like to say a huge thanks to Ragini Dey who shared her wonderful ideas and knowledge of spices and fragrances. The feedback was great and I’m looking forward to see some of the ideas implemented in store to give you that extra edge over your competitors. Regional SA & VIC retailers braved the cold at the last workshop down at The Barn Steakhouse in Mt Gambier. Chef and lecturer Ian Perry, shared his knowledge of spices and gave the taste buds of those who attended a flavour sensation! These workshops are a great way to network with fellow butchers and share ideas. Keep a look out for future events.

I would like to say a big THANK YOU to our WA ABG members who recently supported our Autumn Easy Lamb Roast campaign and consumer competition. WA made up an impressive 1101 of the total entries nationally! Without your dedication and passion, it would not be possible to continue to roll out these fantastic retail programs that support independent butchers. It is with great pleasure that I announce the retail shop that achieved the most entries across the nation, DBC Bunbury Forum. For your efforts we will be sending the team a big fat $2000 travel voucher for their trouble. Congratulations and well done. Find out more of how Retail Manager – Nathan Walmsley managed to increase his lamb sales by 145% during the campaign by reading the Butcher Profile on page 08.

MAY 2014
To coincide with our Easy Lamb Roast Autumn campaign, Australian Butchers' Guild (ABG) members took part in a national retail competition to encourage customers to purchase selected lamb roast cuts and help increase sales of Easy Roast Lamb cuts. Customers who bought an easy lamb roast could win a Flight Centre holiday voucher there was also an incentive for the butcher who attracted the most entries.
Congratulations to the team from DBC in Bunbury Forum WA for an outstanding performance. They have won the travel voucher for receiving the most entries in the Easy Lamb Roast promotion. DBC had 201 entries and recorded an impressive 145% sales increase in lamb during the month of April (up $16,000). Retail Manager Nathan Walmsley also reported DBC lamb volume doubled from 600kg to over 1200kgs for the month of May. Nathan, having recently attended the ABG Autumn Lamb Roast Launch at the Steak Out in Bunbury, was inspired by the lamb value added demonstration done by our Flavour Makers Naturals Tri-Nations team member Gary Hine and used this promotion to implemented several new value added Lamb products.
09
The products Nathan implemented as a result of the Bunbury workshop: · Pancetta Lamb Rump (mango chutney, feta cheese and pancetta) One of Gary Hine’s lamb creations, · Lamb Noisettes (marinated capsicum, haloumi cheese, sundried tomato and spinach) another one of Gary Hine's creations, · Mediterranean Lamb Steaks (Racking Up Your Profits Vol. 1), · Lamb Shoulder Roast – version of the banjo lamb roast out of Racking Up Your Profits Vol. 2 (removed Shank, Ribs and Neck bones). These products were then added to a lamb section in the meat cabinet which also included Easy Carve Lamb Legs Shank on & Shank off, mini Lamb bakes – Knuckle Roasts, Butterflied Lamb Legs, Racks, Cutlets, Loin Chops, diced and much more. The section was then given premium real estate in the middle of the cabinet so that it would stand out from the crowd. Nathan also used this opportunity to motivate his staff with a challenge. His directive was simple, staff members had to inform each customer just before completing their purchase of the lamb campaign and their chance to win a $10K travel voucher. Apprentice Jack Tavasci was the stand out performer in store with his average customer spends increasing from just on $20 to over $30. The ABG congratulates the team at DBC again and thank you for throwing your support behind a great campaign.

Our Natural Spanish Smoked Paprika Spice/Glaze gives you the opportunity add some OLE' to your product offering with a rich dark red appearance combined with a delicious flavour with warm, smoky note. Your se単ores and se単oritas could readily team some Spanish paprika coated lamb or beef cuts with a quick paella for a gourmet delight that would have even Gaudi quaffing Sangria in delight. Your customers will be saying por favor!
DIRECTIONS FOR USE This product has been developed for a dry application (Glaze) and as a wet application (Spice). 2. To use as a dry sprinkle, completely coat the product with Natural Spanish Smoked Paprika Spice/Glaze. 1.
To use as a wet marinade, add 100 grams of Natural Spanish Smoked Paprika Spice Glaze to 200ml of water. Mix thoroughly until a smooth consistency is achieved. Allow to stand and thicken for 15 mins for best results. This quantity is sufficient to marinate one kilogram of your chosen cut of beef or lamb. 4. Simply tumble, garnish and display. 3.

MASTER CLASS How to prepare Denver Steaks from the Chuck Undercut
1
1.
The Chuck Undercut is prepared from a Chuck Roll (Item No. 2275).
'Denver' steaks are cut from the Chuck Undercut. The Chuck Undercut is prepared from the Chuck Roll (Item No. 2275) and sits underneath the Chuck Eye Log (Item No. 2264). Further preparation is required if the Chuck Undercut is to be cooked as a steak. The Chuck Undercut has quite a coarse grain with long muscle fibres. To produce grilling steaks from the Chuck Undercut, choose meat that is highly marbled and aged.

BEEFING UP YOUR PROFITS Hedge Hogg
Beefing Up Your Profits Vol. 3
Beef and lamb are perfect first foods for babies and toddlers as they are a great source of iron and zinc, essential for healthy growth and brain development. Iron and zinc-rich foods such as beef and lamb should be introduced at around six months of age to prevent deficiency. Including beef and lamb in your baby’s diet is easy! Simply adapt the family meal to the suitable texture for your baby’s stage of development by pureeing, mashing with a fork or cutting the food into small pieces.
