XL Beef is owned by Cass and Geoff Steinbeck and their son Nathan and is based at Dungowan near Tamworth in northern New South Wales. Our program is based on breeding Angus, Gelbvieh & Balancer cattle that meet production related selection criteria. The focus being on producing multi traited cattle excelling in both maternal and performance traits.
Angus, Gelbvieh and Balancer (Gelbvieh X Angus) cattle provide both us and our clients with the production traits we are seeking. The Gelbvieh give us our fertility and performance, the Angus, performance and carcass and the Balancer is the combination of all the great traits these two breeds offer.
All females are A.I bred, and extensive use of Embryo transfer and now IVF has allowed us to identify trait leading females and multiply the genetics which make up our Angus bulls & females in our sale. Our Gelbvieh & Balancer Bulls are for private sale.
