If you love fast, healthy, and delicious meals, a beef stir fry is one of the best dishes you can whip up. The secret? It starts with quality meat — and that’s exactly what we deliver at A Place 2 Meat, your trusted online butcher in Brisbane.

Whether you’re feeding the family, meal prepping, or impressing guests, stir fry is a go-to favorite. But to take it from average to amazing, you need the right cut of beef and a few simple tips. Let’s break it down.

Best Cuts of Beef for Stir Fry

For tender, flavor-packed beef stir fry, choose one of these premium cuts from our butcher’s shop:

• Flank steak – lean and full of flavor

• Rump steak – great for bulk packs and family cooking

• Chuck steak (thinly sliced) – budget-friendly and tender when cooked quickly

• Top round roast (sliced thin) – an underrated option for stir fry dishes

All of our beef at A Place 2 Meat is fresh, hand-cut, free-range, hormone-free, and halal-certified — so you know you’re getting the best.

Quick Recipe: Easy Beef Stir Fry

Ingredients:

• 500g stir fry beef (sliced thin from any of the cuts above)

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• 1 tbsp oyster sauce

• 1 tsp sesame oil

• 1 garlic clove, minced

• 1 tsp corn flour (for tender meat)

• 2 cups mixed veggies (capsicum, broccoli, carrot, onion)

• 2 tbsp cooking oil

• Optional: fresh chili, ginger, spring onions, sesame seeds

Method:

1. Marinate the beef – In a bowl, mix beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, garlic, and corn flour. Let sit for 15 minutes.

2. Prep your veggies – Keep them colorful and crunchy.

3. Heat the pan – Use a wok or large pan over high heat. Add oil.

4. Cook the beef – Stir fry quickly in hot oil until just browned (about 1–2 minutes). Remove and set aside.

5. Cook the veggies – Toss in your chopped veggies, cook for 2–3 minutes.

6. Combine – Return the beef to the pan, toss together for another minute. Done!
