Pure, traditionally rendered beef tallow from 100% grass-fed and grass-finished cattle. Rich in vitamins A, D, E, K, B12 and B3 — the ancestral cooking fat our great-grandparents trusted. Ideal for roasting vegetables, frying, slow-cooking, and adding depth of flavour to traditional dishes.

Benefits of Tallow (Beef Fat)

Nutrient Dense

Contains approximately 50% saturated fats, 44% monounsaturated fats, and 4% polyunsaturated fats — a perfect source of energy to support immune function, bone health, vision, antioxidant protection, and skin vitality.

Enhances Nutrient Absorption

Rich in vitamins A, D, E, and K which require dietary fats for optimal absorption. Vitamin A supports vision and immune function, vitamin D aids calcium absorption and bone health, vitamin E acts as an antioxidant protecting cells from damage, and vitamin K is essential for blood clotting and bone health.

Rich in Fat-Soluble Vitamins

Grass-fed and grass-finished tallow is a powerful source of vitamins A, D, E, K, B12, B3, and omega-3s. Vitamin B12 is essential for energy production and nervous system health; omega-3s support cardiovascular and mental health.

Supports Metabolism & Weight Management

Contains stearic acid and CLA (conjugated linoleic acid), which has been shown to improve metabolic function and increase fat burning. Stearic acid helps manage cholesterol levels.

Skin Health

Grass-fed and grass-finished tallow deeply nourishes, moisturises, and supports skin health due to its similarity to human sebum and rich content of fat-soluble vitamins.

Supports Heart Health

Stearic acid found in beef tallow has been shown to have a neutral effect on blood cholesterol levels, potentially reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Nutrient-Rich Cooking Fat

Excellent for baking and sautéing with a high smoke point of 215–249°C, meaning fewer free radicals or trans fats formed during cooking.

Anti-Inflammatory Properties

Its CLA content has been linked to several health benefits including anti-cancer properties.

“Tallow (for cooking) — wow, just delicious! So versatile in the kitchen, my absolute favourite is frying up some chips for my kids. No strong beefy taste and cooks to perfection with an amazing flavour! 5 stars!”
