Meet Rob:
Director & Mastermind Behind Our Casalinga Flavours
As the head of product development and recipe innovation, Rob brings his European heritage and decades of experience in the butchering industry to the table. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for the craft, Rob takes great pride in his work.
He is intimately acquainted with every ingredient that goes into each product and employs innovative techniques, including in-store smoke-oven, to develop unique flavors. The only problem? Getting him to take a break from perfecting his craft.
Meet Rose:

Rose is an invaluable partner in the business, balancing her role as a wife and mother of four with her responsibilities as an account manager and director. Her extensive background in accounting has allowed her to manage the company's finances since its inception in 1984.

The Perry Family:
A Key Part of the Casalinga Gourmet Meats Story
Starting as a self-employed small business, the Perry family has played a significant role in the development of Casalinga Gourmet Meats. If you haven't met or heard of them, you will soon enough. All four Perry children have worked in the retail store at one point and are frequently seen interacting with our customers. As of now, they are pursuing their individual careers in diverse fields and have become the extended advisory network for the company's future endeavors.
Our Producers
A Unique Philosophy: Superior Flavour and Quality
Our customers frequently rave about the flavour of our products, which is what sets us apart from competitors.
We take pride in overseeing the entire production process, from working with registered Tasmanian farmers who provide grass-fed, free-range produce, to developing relationships with local buyers and abbatoirs. As a result, we have complete control over the quality of our fresh produce.
Our product integrity is not a response to trends or competition, but rather a fundamental belief. We believe that it is essential to produce high-quality goods with exceptional flavour. To achieve this, we invest a significant amount of time in product development to ensure that every ingredient is accounted for. This enables us to offer gluten-free and preservative-free options that are tailored to your needs while allowing the natural flavours to shine.
We also offer an array of complementary flavours, including meat rubs from Tasmanian natives and locally sourced mustards, horseradish, and relishes, to bring your meal to life.
