It’s official – Noosa has the best sausages in the state.
A boutique butcher shop at Sunrise Beach, Butchers of Noosa, that has been open only a year, was this month awarded Queensland’s Best Australian Pork Sausage at the Australian Meat Industry Awards, and will take their sausages to Tasmania in February to compete for the national title.
Luke Marshall began his butcher’s apprenticeship in 2000, and, in a quirky twist of fate, has returned to the same location to run his own butcher shop along with three other local butchers and his wife Kayla, who assists in the store.
Kayla said after completing his apprenticeship Luke worked in and managed other butcher shops around Noosa before deciding it was time to have his own place.
His timing coincided with the lease becoming available at Sunrise Beach Shopping Centre and with a stylish new look, Butchers of Noosa was born.
Without giving away the secrets to their award-winning pork sausage, Kayla said its high standard came from using a simple, but tasty recipe and its ingredients of good quality meat sourced from Bangalow pork.
She said the shop had a range of specialty sausages as well as sausage rolls and pies, all made in-store.
Butchers of Noosa, at 2 Grasstree Court, Sunrise Beach, celebrated its first birthday on Wednesday.
