Bully Beef and the Australian Beef Trade History
The term bully beef traces to soldiers and the soup and bouilli meat used abroad. Early methods began with the Dangar brothers near Newcastle in 1850, packing 4 and 1 lb tins for Admiralty orders. High cattle prices after 1851 spurred the industry, which has since packed millions of prime Australian beef for world markets.
