The 6HEAD heritage stretches all the way back to Australia’s colonial roots and the First Fleet. Back then, steak was one of the rarest of pleasures, and, for a time, it was almost unattainable.
As the story goes, the First Fleet brought with them only six head of Black Cape cattle, two bulls and four cows, picked up from the Cape of Good Hope in South Africa on the way from England to Australia. On arrival, a convict was given strict instructions to not let the cattle out of his sight. While the convict ate his lunch, however, he left the cattle alone, returning to find the “six head” had vanished. After numerous searches to no avail, all hope was lost of ever finding them.
Eight years later, rumours emerged that over 100 head of cattle had been spotted 80 miles inland from Sydney, thought to be direct descendants of the six Black Cape cattle that had fled. They not only survived but flourished without human intervention, giving great hope to the newly appointed Governor Hunter. So intrigued was the Governor that he formed a scouting party and ventured out into the bush to see for himself. On finding the large herd grazing in an area, he named it ‘The Pastures’.
It is said that very evening the Governor and his party found a stray from the herd and decided it was a perfect day for steak.
Beyond the colony, word soon spread that Australia had what it took to be the great cattle country.
It’s this rich heritage that drives our team at 6HEAD to serve the finest steaks in Sydney with beef sourced from reputable local meat purveyors.
