Cut to order,
not to a schedule.

Three generations behind the block. Aged beef, wors made here every morning, and a braai pack that actually feeds the number of people you said.

We'll tell you what it's best for, what it costs per kilo, and the one thing people usually get wrong with it.
Front shoulder

Chuck

Hard-working muscle with good marbling. Tough if you rush it, magnificent if you don't. This is your potjie and stew meat, and the best mince in the shop comes off here.

Best forPotjie · Stew · Mince
PriceR119 / kg
CookingSlow, 3+ hours
Don'tDon't braai it as steak. No amount of marinade fixes chuck on high heat.
Fore rib

Rib & Prime Rib

The cut people photograph. Heavy marbling that bastes itself as it cooks, which is why a standing rib roast forgives a bit of guesswork.

Best forRoasting · Ribeye
PriceR229 / kg
CookingHot sear, then rest
DoRest it as long as you cooked it. Cutting early loses everything onto the board.
Middle back

Sirloin

The braai standard for a reason — tender enough to grill fast, with a fat cap that crisps beautifully. Ask us to leave the fat on.

Best forBraai · Pan steak
PriceR199 / kg
CookingHigh heat, 3–4 min a side
Don'tDon't salt it an hour before. Salt as it hits the grid, or the night before — nothing in between.
Hindquarter

Rump

More flavour than fillet, more chew than sirloin. The cut most South Africans actually prefer once they stop paying for the name.

Best forBraai · Steak · Kebabs
PriceR179 / kg
CookingMedium-rare, slice across grain
DoCut across the grain when serving. Same steak, completely different tenderness.
Rear leg

Silverside & Topside

Lean and dense. Roasts well if you keep it pink, but this is really biltong country — it's what we hang in the dryer every week.

Best forBiltong · Roast · Schnitzel
PriceR139 / kg
CookingMedium-rare or slow
DoAsk us to slice it for biltong with the grain — it makes the difference between chewy and right.
Lower chest

Brisket

Cheap, tough, and worth every hour. Low and slow breaks the connective tissue down into something you'll think about for days.

Best forSmoking · Slow roast
PriceR109 / kg
Cooking6–10 hours, low
Don'tDon't trim all the fat off before cooking. It's the only thing keeping it moist.
Lower leg

Shin

The most underrated thing in the shop. Full of collagen that melts into gravy you can stand a spoon in. Buy it on the bone.

Best forOsso buco · Soup · Stew
PriceR89 / kg
CookingSlow, 4+ hours
DoKeep the marrow bone in. That's where the whole flavour of the dish comes from.
Weekend maths, solved

How much meat do I actually need?

Over the counter

What we're known for.

Dry-aged beef

Hung 21 days in our own room. Deeper flavour, better texture, and the reason people drive out here.

Homemade boerewors

Made here every morning to a recipe that hasn't changed since 1978. Coarse-ground, properly spiced.

Biltong & droëwors

Silverside, cut with the grain, dried slow. Wet, medium or dry — say the word.

Braai packs

Portioned for the number of people you're actually feeding, not a guess off a shelf.

Bulk & freezer orders

Quarter or half carcass, cut and wrapped to your spec. Cheaper per kilo and it lasts months.

Cut to order

Thickness, trim, deboning — tell us how you want it. No charge, it's the job.

The rules of thumb

How much per person?

About 400g of raw meat per adult for a normal braai, 500–600g if it's a hungry crowd or the sides are thin. Children roughly half. We work our packs on 400g and nobody has ever phoned to say there wasn't enough.

Friday morning for a weekend braai is comfortable. For 20 people or more, give us a day's notice so we can cut it properly rather than in a hurry.

Yes, at no extra charge if you order ahead. We do a basic braai marinade, a lemon-herb for chicken, and a chilli one that people either love or regret.

We supply the meat, cut and portioned, for functions of any size. We don't cook it or serve it — but we'll tell you exactly how much you need and have it ready on the day.

We're not a certified halaal or kosher butchery, and we'd rather say so plainly than let anyone assume otherwise.

Our story

Three generations, one block.

Kruger & Sons opened on this corner in 1978. The block is the same one, worn into a slight dip in the middle from forty-odd years of use, and the wors recipe hasn't been touched since the first batch.

What has changed is the ageing room. We hang our beef for 21 days now, which costs us weight and gains you flavour — the trade every serious butchery eventually decides to make.

Everything is cut to order. If you want your steaks thicker, your brisket left fatty, or your leg of lamb butterflied, just say so at the counter. That's not a service, it's the job.

Come see us.

Open seven days. Someone's always behind the block.
