Black Angus
The Black Angus breed came into existence by cross-breeding old Celtic breeds with species imported by the Northmen. It was first bred in Aberdeenshire and was accordingly called “Aberdeen”.
The Angus cows adapt easily to their environment pretty much everywhere. They give birth without any problems and this makes them very suitable for extensive cultivation.
For months they care for themselves on the Scottish pastures, on the endless green Irish grass fields, on those immensely vast American prairies or in the unspoilt bush of the Australian East Coast, this without any interference of man.
Proud, royal and pitch-black, they have very few demands of their environment. They are genuine grass-eaters. The quality of the grass in their biotope will define the taste and fat marbling in your steak.
SCOTTISH ANGUS
The rough climate in the Scottish Highlands results in a typical flora. Here the coarse pastures grow very resistent grasses and herbs. The Angus cows have to wander about every day in order to scratch together their daily nourishment. This results in a very well blooded muscle mass. Scottish Angus is crimson red, with a nice fat marbling that melts when fried and has a very powerful old-fashioned taste. This meat will be perfect when aged on the bone for several weeks.
IRISH ANGUS
Endless green plains with an abondance of lush grass, it's here that the Angus cow really feels at home. Only during the roughest winter days the cows are stabled and only then will they eat crude feeding. Here we have the real grass fed Angus beef. Perfect for the amateur of Free range Meat : beautifully marbled, a powerful taste, nature on your plate;
USDA PRIME
For a period of 15 months cows walk freely about on the immense plains of the American MidWest.
The stressless environment and the abondance of grass are the first keys to success. After this baptism in nature cows are stabled at the ranch. There they are fed a balanced diet of grains and corn and this under the severe control of the USDA (U.S. Department of Agriculture). This manner of raising adds up to a completely different result as to Ireland or Scotland, regarding to taste and marbling. We pick out only Prime quality meat that is highly marbled and has the appearance of a nice Wagyu. The USDA Prime Rib has a unique taste, is incredibly tender and marvellously juicy.
AUSTRALIAN BLACK ABERDEEEN
This story has great resemblance to the one of USDA Prime, but to us it carries a special meaning.
The youngest generation of our company participated in it himself! Jef was employed as “Cattle Hand” on Chudleigh Park Station at Hughenden, Queensland Australia and to him this remains a very unique and instructive life-experience.
Every day from “dawn till dusk”, Jef worked on the ranch that has 182.000 acres and is a days ride away from civilization .
Here he discovered firsthand what free range means.The cows walk about freely in“ the Bush”: a very rough area with fields of grass, bushes and swamps. In order to trace them and round them up, helicopters fly over the area and like genuine cowboys the cattle hands on the ground drive the cattle together with combined force.
Like in the US the animals are selected out of the vast group after a period of 15 months. They are brought to the main ranch where they are kept to a diet of 100% GMOfree grains; This grain fed meat is very tender, beautifully marbled with fat, very tasteful and healthy.

Ordered before 9 a.m., delivered before 8 p.m. the next day. If you did not choose a time block option, your order will be delivered as standard between 8 am and 8 pm. For this we enter into a contract with Dynalogic of DHL to deliver between 8 am and 6 pm. After all, we know that the driver is sometimes delayed during the day. The expected time of delivery that you receive from the courier service is therefore never an absolute certainty. How should you interpret the time blocks? Not as an absolute certainty. The morning delivery time block will certainly guarantee that you can serve the meat for dinner, but not that we can guarantee you an appointment at 1.15 pm away from home. In most cases this will work, but it is not a certainty, anything can happen along the way. Afternoon delivery guarantees that you do not need to be home until 1 pm. We deliver from Tuesday to Saturday, but you can always order.
You can follow the order via a track & trace code, which arrives in your mailbox one day before delivery. The Gustor package is sent under guarantee via Dynalogic or DHL. Don't be alarmed if you receive a message from our DYNALOGIC courier service a few days prior to your delivery. This does not mean that your order has already been shipped, but that we have already reserved a window on their routes for your package for the day in question. Courier services are sometimes overcrowded and in this way we ensure a good delivery. On the day preceding your delivery, you will receive an email from us informing you that your order will be cut, packed and shipped. IMPORTANT: For legal reasons, our courier is forbidden to leave perishable foodstuffs such as meat unattended. You haven't bought a book or a pack of washing powder.

Should you suddenly go away urgently, place a clear message at your door, addressed to Dynalogic (not to Gustor), stating which neighbor they are allowed to deliver the package to.

When stored under 7 ° C, the vacuum packaging guarantees a total freshness of 8 days after reception. For poultry this is four days with a storage under 4 ° C.
In the freezer you can keep the meat for up to six months.
All products are shipped fresh - and therefore not frozen - unless stated otherwise on the website. No product was previously frozen.
A special announcement about smell, color and taste. Gustor Meat Boutique products are top products, usually matured and always full of flavor. If you have no experience with such products, you will undoubtedly notice that our products usually have a specific smell. Also, the slightly browner, matured color is different from the meat that you find in the supermarket.
This is completely normal. For example, an odorless wine cannot possibly be a top wine, and the color evolves as the wine ripens longer.
Because we work with fresh products, it is possible that a product is no longer available. Keep an eye on the website or email us to see when something is available again.
Delicious (and) fresh meat guaranteed, thanks to a combination of cooling and insulation.
The meat is cut to size as desired. Ordered multiple items? These are first individually vacuum packed, so hygiene and safety remain guaranteed. The packaged meat then goes into an insulating EPS (polystyrene) box, which keeps the meat in excellent condition during shipping.
At Gustor Meat Boutique we attach great importance to the environment. The packaging was specially designed by us and is environmentally friendly. The enclosed cooling elements are perfectly reusable and have been certified by an independent inspection body: non-toxic and suitable for cooling foodstuffs - in full compliance with the rules of the FASFC. If you still want to discard the box, it is good to know that EPS is perfectly recyclable.
Our meat is never sent frozen, unless otherwise stated on the website.
In order to guarantee our customers an optimal taste experience with our exceptional quality meats, we always deliver fresh and chilled products.
If the meat is not delivered in optimal conditions, the customer is reimbursed. This is the Gustor guarantee.

All weights on the website of Gustor Meat Boutique are global weights that make a payment in advance possible. The actual weight of the meat can differ, because the order is in its total weighted.
Gustor Meat Boutique guarantees that the difference between the two will never be greater than 5%. If the delivered weight proves to be more than the originally given weight, the customer obviously does not have to pay.
Should the difference still be greater than 5%, Gustor Meat Boutique provides a refund in cash.
The difference between the two weights is calculated with a subtraction sum and then multiplied by the average price per kilo of the purchased goods.
La race n’est pas le seul paramètre essentiel dans la qualité d’une viande. Le ‘terroir’ - le milieu dans lequel l’animal a vécu - et la nourriture qu’il a reçue sont autant d'éléments cruciaux. Les Highlands écossais, les Alpes autrichiennes, les forêts des Landes sont autant d’environnements qui garantissent une plus-value dans la qualité de la viande. Nous sommes constamment à la recherche de ces viandes provenant de ces régions d’exception. Il est évident qu’une viande de vache Holstein qui a passé des années dans un élevage laitier aux Pays-Bas n’a rien en commun avec celle du même type d’animal qui s'est nourri dans les herbages des Alpes autrichiennes.
