Breaking Down a Side of Beef with Troy Wheeler

Master butcher Troy Wheeler from Meatsmith in Melbourne takes us through the process of breaking down an entire side of beef - from its major primals he breaks each down into its various cuts demonstrating the versatility of Australian beef.

From this side of the world, I hardly find enough butchery videos based on AU/NZ or UK version. Glad I came across this.❤

Very interesting watching the skill and dexterity of the butcher. I had not realised that there were so many cuts of beef on a side.

Looks like a great job. I particularly liked how the video showed where the cuts are coming from, as it can be confusing with beef. While Pork and Lamb can be fairly easy to pick up, Beef seems so much more complicated and intricate to understand.

Ended up here by accident. Didn't regret it. its mesmerizing to watch a true pro at work.

Wonderful presentation!!! Wonderful knife skills!!!

Some of the cuts he did we don't have here in the States. I just find it so relaxing watching Master butcher's break down primal cuts of meat. All of that meat would last me and my family about 3 years lol. Thanks for sharing :-)

This is what a skilled meat cutter does. Every piece is accounted for.

I am planning on buying a side of beef (maybe the whole thing.. not sure) but this just gave me a way clearer idea of how much meat I should prepare for. Thank you for a very educational video and also great job for the butcher!! It made me nervous seeing him cut without a cut glove but he’s obviously a pro and didn’t need it. Thank you for this!

Great to see an artist at work! Unfortunately, it is becoming a lost art. Interesting the different names used for the same cuts in different parts of the world. Thanks for sharing this video!!!

Finally names over the cuts and position on the animal.❤

Very interesting to see the differences between the Australian and American breakdown methods, and the different terminology.

Well done Sir.
I have the grill ready right over here and the coals are nice and hot.

[davidsolomon]

No doubt, he is a talented butcher, but his cuts seem very strange, compared to the American traditions of breaking down the carcass!!!
