All-Natural Grass-Fed Beef Meatballs from New Zealand (300g)
300g (10.6oz), or 15 pieces per pack, of all-natural additive-free meatballs made from free-range grass-fed New Zealand Angus beef. These succulent meatballs have a satisfying, juicy flavor that comes from nothing but natural ingredients. Carefully selected and minimal veggies and seasonings give them a delicious flavor while still keeping their distinctive beefy taste. The slight celery and onion flavor adds a refreshing element that complements the beefy flavor nicely. All-natural meatballs tend to come in slightly different shapes and may not be perfectly round, but rest assured that this does not affect the quality or safety. This beef comes from free-range grass-fed cattle that have never been treated with growth hormones or antibiotics and never given genetically modified (GMO) feed. Not only that, but the beef is also free of colorings, preservatives, sugar and any other additives.
These convenient meatballs come in vacuum-sealed packaging and can be taken straight from the freezer and simmered without removing the packaging (sous vide), making preparing food for yourself, your family or your kids easy and time-saving. Effortlessly round-up classic dishes like spaghetti pasta or meatball subs with these nutrient-packed and clean meatballs.

How to prepare:
| Method A | Slowly simmer (98°C, 208°F) in the frozen unopened package for 15 minutes or until fully cooked. The frozen meatballs will lower the water temperature, so it is best to ensure the water reaches 98°C before starting the timer. *Note the product label may become unreadable. |
| Method B | Defrost the package, remove from the package and place into simmering water (98°C, 208°F) for 10 minutes or until fully cooked. |
| Method C | Defrost the package, remove from the package and slowly cook meatballs in a frypan with olive oil for 8-10 minutes or until fully cooked. |

Founded in 2012, Green Meadows Beef has been operating for the past 120 years. Three generations of the Carey family have been taking care of the cattle raised on their 420 acre (170ha) farm that is located in South Opunake, New Zealand. The farm is located between Mount Taranaki and the Tasman Sea, giving the grass the cattle graze on a lightly salted flavor. While grazing on volcanic rich soil, the cows are able to drink potable fresh mountain water that comes from the local community water scheme.
