Sea Fed Beef: A World-First in Low-Emissions Steak
We are proud to announce that we’re now serving the world’s first low-emissions steak. As part of our ongoing efforts to make great food better for the planet, we’ve partnered with Sea Forest to introduce Sea Fed Beef – a pioneering, low-emissions, grass-fed Black Angus beef that actively reduces methane emissions by up to 67%.
Sea Fed Beef is now available at our Byron Bay and Rosebery locations, marking a world-first in sustainable dining. By using Sea Forest’s innovative SeaFeed, a seaweed-based supplement, we’re taking a significant step toward reducing the environmental impact of livestock farming while delivering a delicious, high-quality steak to our diners.
“At Three Blue Ducks, we believe that amazing food can be good for the planet, which is why we’re so excited to serve the world’s first low-emissions steak. With Sea Fed Beef, we’re not just offering our diners a quality product, we’re also helping tackle the climate crisis by reducing the methane emissions from cattle. It’s a true win for everyone – from the farmers, to the environment, and to our customers who can enjoy their steak with a clearer conscience.” – Darren Robertson.
Sea Forest’s SeaFeed™ is a natural seaweed supplement developed from the evolving science of the native red seaweed, Asparagopsis. When added to cattle feed, it reduces methane emissions by up to 67%. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas—80 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide—so reducing it is vital in the fight against climate change. By incorporating Sea Fed Beef into our menus, we’re helping reduce the agricultural sector’s contribution to global warming, one meal at a time.
The Sea Fed Beef we serve is 100% Australian-reared, free-range Black Angus, raised on nutrient-rich pastures with no antibiotics or hormones. The cattle are fed a small amount of SeaFeed, which has a natural, scientifically-backed ability to reduce methane emissions—all while maintaining the same rich and tender flavour you expect from a premium steak.
This new offering gives our diners the chance to enjoy a premium steak with a significantly lower environmental footprint. It also supports local farmers by providing them with an opportunity to reduce their methane emissions and maintain their livelihoods without sacrificing the quality of their product.
“Sea Fed Beef is huge for the global food industry. We’re thrilled that Three Blue Ducks is leading the way in offering this incredible product, which we hope will soon be found on menus around the world. Not only does it deliver the quality and flavour that steak lovers crave, but it also represents a crucial step toward more sustainable, responsible farming practices. We’re proud to see our innovation having a positive impact, both on the environment and on the dining experience in Australia and hopefully globally.” – Sam Elsom, CEO, Sea Forest
We’re proud to be the first to bring this world-first low-emissions steak to our tables, reinforcing our commitment to offering exceptional, sustainable dining experiences. With this new addition, we’re continuing to lead the way in sustainable gastronomy, giving our customers the chance to enjoy quality beef while also making a positive impact on the planet.
