About Us

OUR STORY

We started The Dorrigo Butcher in 2019 as a couple passionate about our local region and the food it produces. Our shop has been the local butcher’s shop in Dorrigo for 70 years, and we are proud to grow the reputation of the exceptional quality produce from the Dorrigo Plateau. We have expanded our range with our Smokehouse, and have won multiple awards for our Beef Jerky, sausages, free-range ham and bacon. We source the best beef, lamb and pork grown in our region and we are confident you will find it some of the best meat available.

Our Awards

We are very proud to have been acknowledged with a variety of awards, both for our products and our business. We have been running The Dorrigo Butcher for over 4 years now & this gives us encouragement that we are on the right path with the business decisions we have made. It is also fantastic that we can represent the Dorrigo Plateau around the region and further afield.
