We started competing in 2018, travelling around Australia to compete with the very best of the best. Having used many brands of beef, we were introduced to 2GR in early 2019 and have used 2GR Full Blood Wagyu Briskets at all competitions, winning the coveted 1st Place in Brisket at the 2019 Meatstock International Sydney, defeating the top 50 teams in Australia and 2nd Place in Brisket at the 2022 Meatstock International in Brazil.

The CEO of one of Australia’s largest cattle producers, John McKillop, has called for the government to rapidly build upon existing biosecurity measures and focus more to ensure Foot & Mouth Disease does not enter Australia. Gina Rinehart confirmed: “The threat of foot and mouth disease and other Cruel diseases, continue as a potentially devastating reality for our stock, that we must more actively protect our agricultural industry against. This protection must be real and certainly not less than what other countries are already providing.

Mines, gas projects, farms and other industries in Australia’s second-biggest resources market and third-biggest agriculture sector could be shut down by a bureaucrat’s decision, under secret legislation drafted by the Queensland Environment Department. Several high-level sources said the draft bill as circulated would give a bureaucrat, likely the Environment Department’s director-­general, the power to wind back retrospectively existing environmental approvals, licences, and permits to slash production ­capacity.An industry source said: “It’s frankly outrageous.

It is absolute nonsense to claim that beef farming accelerates hypothetical global warming. Carbon atoms are just being recycled. We are being conned with a scare campaign by unelected climate activists who want to control every aspect of our lives, including the source of our animal protein

Those of you with real jobs cannot fathom the daily deluge of meat-free and alcohol-free propaganda that is sent to a food writer. Without the alternative-protein crowd, and the zero-alcohol crowd, I wonder how the PR industry might be sustainable. (Pun fully intended.)

Perhaps the single best option for tackling these issues is to provide an unlimited work bonus which would allow pensioners to earn as much as they want from work and just pay income tax like everyone else. This is not to suggest a universal pension — eligibility would still be subject to an assets test and other income tests — but to give pensioners greater freedom to work if they choose to. It will give greater freedom and prosperity to pensioners who choose to work, it will increase revenue from the tax on additional income earned, and it will provide immediate relief to businesses across Australia struggling with worker shortages.
