Background Over ten years ago, a small carcass competition was running in Northland, aimed at finding the best local beef. With great foresight, former Beef + Lamb New Zealand Ltd (nee Meat New Zealand) directors, John McCarthy and Tim Brittain who visited Rockhampton and witnessed a pasture to plate concept, approached Beef + Lamb New Zealand Inc (nee New Zealand Beef and Lamb Marketing Bureau) for ideas on how to add consumer appeal to this event. It was evident taste and tenderness were very important attributes to the consumer, and following industry consultation, it was decided just one cut the sirloin, be assessed for the new competition. The name Steak of Origin was coined as a play on the ever-popular Aussie State of Origin rugby league tournament and ironically enough, the Australians have since asked to use the competition s template within their own industry. Back here in New Zealand, the inaugural ground-breaking Steak of Origin took place twelve years ago with Sir Colin Meads, chef Greg Heffernan and foodie Allyson Gofton having the privilege of being the first judges. Over the past twelve years, beef producers have been working hard to achieve the competition criteria to produce top quality beef. Many factors come into play when it comes to producing quality beef, and the Steak of Origin competition has encouraged many farmers, breeders and processors alike to work extra hard to achieve the quality and consistency required to be a contender in this competition. The 14 challenge was supported by Zoetis, and 16 meat plants around the country took part in processing the entries: AFFCO Moerewa; AgResearch Ruakura; Ashburton Meat Processors; Auckland Meat Processors/Wilson Hellaby; Alliance Mataura; Alliance Pukeuri; Alliance Levin; CMP Kokiri; Harris Meats, Land Meat NZ Ltd; Silver Fern Farms Belfast; Silver Fern Farms Dargaville; Silver Fern Farms Finegand; Silver Fern Farms Pacific; Taranaki Abattoir and Taylor Preston/Ken Wilson Meats. A People s Choice element was reintroduced but as an award in its own right. The People s Choice gave members of the public an opportunity to taste and rank the finalists steaks to determine the 14 winner. 14 also saw the reintroduction of the Manawatu Beef Dish which ran in participating Manawatu Restaurants during a two week assessment period, with the winning restaurant also announced during the prizegiving. 3
Entries Received In 14, there were a total of 34 entries over five categories. Class 1: Best of Breed: European 27 Class 2: Best of Breed: British 129 Class 3: Best of Breed: Crossbreed & Other 68 Class 4: Best of Brand: Retail 46 Class 5: Best of Brand: Wholesaler & Foodservice 7 14 Competition Process Entry forms were distributed in December 13 to past entrants, and to the database of Performance Beef Breeders. A press release calling for entries was also distributed to nationwide print media. Entry cut-off was Friday 21 February 14, with processing taking place from 17 February to 21 March 14. Beef + Lamb New Zealand Inc received all the entries and confirmed with both the entrant and participating plant. Each entrant was sent a label to place on their Animal Status Declaration (ASD) form, which accompanied the animal(s) during processing. This label allowed the processor to identify the animals as they arrived at the plant. Beef + Lamb New Zealand Inc provided the processing plants with regular updated spreadsheets of entries to expect at their plant and when. The processing plants were also provided with labels, detailing the animal, to place on the vacuum-packed whole sirloin(s) removed from each competition animal. The processing plants then sent all competition sirloins to Carne Technologies in Cambridge for the initial analysis. After three weeks of ageing, each sirloin was tested for six parameters: Tenderness (kilograms shearforce - kgf) % Cooking Loss ph Colour (a* value) Marbling Succulence (water-binding capacity - wbc) 4
Semi-Final The top % of entries in each class were named as semi-finalists, as determined by Carne Technologies tenderness results. Each of the semi-finalists received a certificate. Each semi-finalist sirloin was coded anonymously and tasted by a panel of 12 judges at the Hospitality School at Auckland University of Technology (AUT). This year the semi-final judges were: Renny Aprea, Chef Tutor, Auckland University of Technology Julie Biuso, Chef/Foodwriter Ginny Grant, Deputy Food Editor, Cuisine Magazine Dell Griffin, Chef Tutor, Manakau Institute of Technology Martin Harrap, Apprentice Trainer & Coordinator, SkyCity Auckland Lauraine Jacobs, Chef/Foodwriter John Kelleher, Chef Tutor, Auckland University of Technology Mikey Newlands, Beef + Lamb Ambassador Chef and Head Chef, Bracu Restaurant Nick Russell, Sub-Editor & Foodwriter, Taste Magazine Rod Slater, CEO, Beef + Lamb New Zealand Inc. Kerry Tyack, Foodwriter & food critic Chelsea Winter, Masterchef 12 winner & foodwriter Each of the sirloin steaks were rated using the following criteria: Aroma, Taste/Flavour, Tenderness, Juiciness and Texture. The result from the semi-final identified the finalists - the top four in each of the five classes. See page 8 for a list of finalists.

People s Choice The 14 Beef + Lamb New Zealand Steak of Origin People s Choice took place at Manfeild Park, Feilding as part of the AgInnovation programme on Sunday 12 May. The finalists sirloins were grouped in lots of five and presented to attendees. Each participating member of the public was asked to taste and rate each of the five sirloins in order of preference, number one being their favourite and number five being their least favourite. After all finalists steaks were tasted and ranked the steak with the lowest score was named the 14 People s Choice winner. The 14 People s Choice award was a stand-alone award and did not contribute to the overall final score. Sponsorship The 14 Beef + Lamb New Zealand Steak of Origin was proudly sponsored by Zoetis. The canape hour was kindly supported by Silver Fern Farms. The beef enjoyed by dinner guests was kindly supplied by Countdown, with the entrée and main course featuring Countdown Beef and Te Mania % Certified Angus Beef. TE MANIA CERTIFIED NEW ZEALAND ANGUS Event Publicity The 14 challenge has generated and continues to generate a significant number of clippings in print and online media. There were also a number of radio interviews including an interview with Chelsea Winter on the Danny Watson show on NewsTalk ZB and Julie Biuso on National Radio following the semi-final and Jamie Mackay from The Farming Show interviewing the 14 Grand Champion Colin Brown following the final.

Analysis by Carne Technologies Carne Technologies provided comprehensive results and recommendations from which the finalists were chosen. The following explanation of each test undertaken on the competition entrants was provided: Tenderness - kilograms shearforce (kgf) Tenderness is based on the New Zealand Beef and Lamb Quality Mark Standards. It is measured with a tenderometer, a mechanical tooth that determines the amount of force required to bite through a sample of cooked meat. It has been demonstrated that very tender meat, as judged by consumers, is between 3. and 5kgF. Below 3 kgf, meat begins to lose its structure and its textural characteristics, while meat with tenderness measurements 7 kgf and above requires progressively more chewing. Therefore data from the tenderometer is categorised as follows: Less than 5kgF = very tender 6-7kgF = tender 8 -kgf = acceptable 11kgF and higher = unacceptably tough The standard deviation (kgf SD) indicates the tenderness variation within a sample. The higher this figure, the more inconsistent the tenderness. The typical standard deviation of tender meat is less than 1.kgF ideally around.5kgf or less. kgf SD was used to select semi-finalist where the kgf was tied within a class. ph Meat should have a ph below 5.8 as this avoids the ultimate ph-associated toughness condition. High ph (over 6.) is typically associated with dark coloured meat and reduced shelf life due to microbial spoilage. The ultimate ph should be in the range of 5.4-5.7. Entries with a ph higher than 5.8 (Beef + Lamb New Zealand Quality Mark Standard) were disqualified from going to the semi-final. Four other parameters were measured in 14. These tests did not affect the placing of finalists. The explanation of these tests are below: Marbling Marbling is based on the AUS-MEAT grading system. Marbling is the fat that is deposited between the muscle fibres. Marbling is clearly visible and easily evaluated subjectively using the AUS-MEAT marbling score index: Higher the number = more marbling Scale of to 9 with = none and 9 = extremely marbled Succulence - water-binding capacity This is measured by water-binding capacity (WBC). WBC is a measure of the amount of fluid which is loose and not bound by the meat structure. If water remains bound within the meat there is less drip and cooking loss and the meat will be juicy and succulent. WBC scores ranged from 1.7 to 4.1 cm 2. A low WBC value indicates that only a small amount of fluid was lost from the meat during the test and therefore the sample would be juicy when eaten. A higher WBC value indicates a large amount of fluid was lost and it is likely that the meat would be drier when eaten. Colour Meat colour is an important attribute of meat quality and consumers generally look for meat with a bright red colour. The meat colour is measured using a Minolta Colourmeter after the steak samples have bloomed at chill temperatures for a minimum of 4 hours. The level of redness is indicated from the colourmeter a* values; values of a* and above represents a bright cherry-red colour while values of 16 and below are associated with samples that are dull and beginning to appear stale. % Cooking Loss Cooking loss describes the fluid expressed from a meat sample during the cooking process. The normal expected range is 25-35%. Levels above this are usually associated with meat that is dry when eaten.
Results from Carne Technologies Key: CLASS 1 = Best of Breed: European CLASS 2 = Best of Breed: British CLASS 3 = Best of Breed: Crossbreed & Other CLASS 4 = Best of Brand: Retail CLASS 5 = Best of Brand: Wholesale and Foodservice kgf = Kilograms shearforce, a measure of tenderness using a tenderometer. The lower the value, the more tender the meat. Acceptability as determined by consumers for tenderness falls in the following groupings: kgf value level of acceptability less than 5 very tender 6 to 7 tender 8 to acceptable 11 and higher unacceptable Marbling We scored each steak using a 9-point scale: 1 = no marbling, 9 = extremely marbled. Semi-Finalists = yellow (as determined by Carne Technologies tenderness results) Finalists = green (as chosen by a panel of semi-final judges) Disqualified = black (due to high ph) SFF: Silver Fern Farms AMP: Auckland Meat Processors 11

Southland Times, Southland 14 May 14, by Diane Bishop General News, page - 456. cm² Provincial - circulation 25,121 (MTWTFS-) ID256496 PAGE Lipsmacking double win hits the spot for Ballyhooley beef Diane Bishop It s hard to beat a good Murray Grey steak. And the public agreed when Winton farmer Barry Macdonald s Murray Grey steak was voted the tastiest at the 14 Beef + Lamb New Zealand Steak of Origin competition in Feilding this week. Macdonald, who markets his beef under the Ballyhooley Beef brand, competed against other finalists to win the inaugural People s Choice Award. It was quite humbling really, Macdonald said. It s great to get that public recognition. Beef + Lamb New Zealand marketing manager Ashley Gray said the competition involved cooking all the finalist steaks before the public rated them in order of preference. Ballyhooley beef was a clear winner, she said. Macdonald also won the Best of Brand: Retail section for the second consecutive year in the Steak of Origin competition and was also placed second in the same class. It was a great follow up to last year, and to be placed first and second was awesome, he said. Macdonald, who established his Torrisdale Murray Grey stud at Winton in the late 197s, produces a wide range of beef products under his Ballyhooley Beef brand which he established nearly three years ago. The product comes from his purebred Murray Grey heifers which are killed at 18 to months of age. Macdonald sells his beef in several Central Otago restaurants and he can be found at his stall at the Southern Farmers Market in Invercargill every Sunday. If you want a steak or a sausage sandwich, come along, he said. Ballyhooley beef was a clear winner. Ashley Gray 5

The supreme farmer winner of the best sirloins was Colin Brown with his angus entry. AngusPure was the supreme brand. The steaks were all tried for aroma, juiciness, tenderness, texture and taste. Chief judge Graham Hawkes said they were on a level playing field. There was no flavour in the oil, no condiments, they were cooked and rested for the same amount of time. Each was cooked for three minutes on each side in the same pan on the same heat before being rested for seven minutes. It was a blind tasting for everyone each steak had only a number so the judges and people watching the contest had no idea which steak they were trying. Hawkes said the judges could tell at the first bite whether a steak was going to make it. There were a couple of rock stars in there. Some really stood out. Paralympian and Olympics medallists Sophie Pascoe and Sarah Walker judged along with Palmerston North Nero chef Scott Kennedy and Hawkes. Organisers said they had 34 entries in this year s the 12th Steak of Origin contest. The entries were all tested at Carne Technologies in Cambridge before the finalists were chosen. Pohangina farmer and bull breeder Forbes Cameron came fourth. 51

General News, page 3-67. cm² Metro - circulation 32,162 (MTWTFS-) ID25641128 PAGE Best beef in land Colin can steak his reputation on it Gerald Piddock Cambridge farmer Colin Brown can rest assured that the steak he produces is the best in the country. He beat 19 finalists to be named grand champion at the 14 Beef + Lamb New Zealand Steak of Origin competition. Brown said he was absolutely thrilled to win such a tough contest. It s extraordinary coming from a small 75-acre farm at Lake Karapiro. It shows that we are in the top per cent of New Zealand s elite beef. But then to get to the finals and ultimately be grand champion is beyond words. The competition s aim is to find the country s most tender and tastiest sirloin steak. Brown beat 19 other finalists from around the country at the grand final in Feilding on Monday night. He took home the Steak of Origin trophy and $65 in prize money. Brown s company, Lake Farm Beef, has now made the final of the competition in four of the past six years, and the semi-finals five out of the past six years. To do it so consistently is thrilling and we just think it gives consumers confidence in buying our beef, he said. Lake Farm Beef is an artisanal beef producer, breeding and raising head of cattle on the shores of Lake Karapiro. Brown sells his beef directly to consumers online. We are different from most cattle farmers because we breed specifically for meat quality. Our beef is ethically raised it s very important to us and we think it s important to our customers too. Brown said his farm is more than a farm-to-plate operation. We think of it as being from conception to consumption. For the quality of our beef to be recognised in this way is very humbling. The animal he entered in the competition was an 18-month-old purebred angus steer named Haki that was sired by Tuwharetoa Regent, the highest marbling angus bull in the world. Brown picked four cattle out of his herd of for the competition and three of these cattle made the semifinals in different categories. As well as angus, Brown also farms Italian-bred piedmontese cattle for their tenderness gene. We re specifically trying to grow for eating quality, which is what most farmers are not doing. His animals also had to produce a lovely carcass and a large eye muscle area and they had to be docile. He sources most of his angus genetics from overseas. We love New Zealand angus but it doesn t have some of the eating quality attributes that we are looking for, specifically marbling, which is very important to us. Piedmontese is a minority breed in New Zealand that was not appreciated how good this cattle could be when crossed with other beef cattle, Brown said. Piedmontese has less cholesterol than fish, believe it or not. And how does the country s best steak producer like his steak? Medium rare. I don t profess to be a great chef but I cook it well on one side and lightly on the other. The big key is to let it rest. 53
