Though I am not one to fit into this range of…read morepeople I also think it prudent to indulge in a weekly sirloin steak and if $22.90 a kilo strikes you as a great price to pay for this succulent cut then pop in in to the Windsor Meat Store to grab yourself a kilo worth. Steak isn't your bag and looking for something a bit more gourmet, try the chickens stuffed with apricot and macadamia, or beef fillet pockets wrapped around feta, basil and tomatoes. Though these are scrumptious buys the display fridges contain all your poultry and bovine needs and they also have self serving fridges with a range of lamb cuts and if you're like me and cheat with your sauces grab a sachet of gravy to complete your culinary masterpiece.

It's been a while since I have been up to this side of Mount Barker. I am totally kicking myself…read morethat I have missed out on this place for the last 6 months. Murray Valley Beef Producers is like a butcher supermarket. It's pretty big! You will find all sorts of meats and seafood here. You will also find a range of processed items, like sausages, schnitzels, spring rolls, and marinated meats. There is quite a selection of different cuts to choose from depending on the animal. What I was impressed with was the quality of the cuts. In particular the ribs. I was looking for beef ribs for a Brazilian style bbq I was planning for the weekend. This butcher stocked yearling ribs with a good amount of meat on them. Some butchers cut off the belly part just over the ribs; which annoys me as the ribs then not have much meat on them. Well, not here! They are very meaty and really good quality. Best part was they were really well priced as well! Only around $15 for 1.3kg. Schwing! I also bought a pack of pepper Texan style snags which were lovely. Very meaty, not too much fat and really juicy! So, I know that Mount Barker is a little out of the way for most. But, if you have freezer space, I would recommend checking it out and stocking up here. Especially if you like quality very cheap!

I have only tried a small part of their meaty selection, but that has enticed me to come back (I plan another meal tonight!) The marinated pork and beef are delish and when pan fried is deliciously tender and tasty.

Lots of the products I had not seen before and so am still curious to try. There was also a range of Indian products - curry pastes and packet mixes for curries. Some looked better than others. What I really liked was the big vat of dates near the front door - I took home a bag bursting with dates. Oh and the spicy pepper sauce - pure red pepper extract, a bit like Tabasco but made from a different variety of pepper.

Lenard's is a specialist chicken shop with oodles of pre prepared chicken offerings that you can simply put in the oven and then whip up some steamed vegies or salad: Instant healthy dinner; you gotta love that! I haven't had anything bad from here and the variety is unbelievable, who knew you could do so much with chicken? (probably many of you). Anyway, I have quite a few favourites: The chicken enchilada is filled with chicken, obviously, and beans with a mexican sauce. I also like the chicken spring rolls, the chicken Kievs and the Tandoori cutlets. The flavours are authentic and the chicken is always of a good standard quality. They also supply your basic chicken in all forms; whole, minced, breast strips and tenderloins etc,

I have really enjoyed cooking up a rack of lamb from barossa fine foods and their diced lamb makes for a fantastic stew or curry. In addition to the entirely accessible, Barossa stocks some gourmet numbers which are perhaps a bit more risque, such as black pudding/blood saussage, emu posciutto and biltong (south african style dried beef). Try the kangaroo salami, it is really good and because kangaroos don't fart methane, it is good for the planet too.
