Tallow SA / McDairy

Tallow SA / McDairy brings together two separate South African brands run by the same business. Tallow SA was founded by Cathie “Cat” Beukes after experimenting with grass-fed beef fat at home, while McDairy focuses on a simple, homegrown dairy staple.

Our current selection includes pure, food-grade beef tallow from Tallow SA and creamy dairy butter from McDairy. The tallow is suited to cooking, baking and selected skincare or soap-making projects, while the butter is a familiar option for spreading, cooking and baking.

Although the products retain their own brand identities, they share a practical approach to straightforward ingredients and everyday household use.

Why We Love Tallow SA / McDairy

These two small ranges work naturally together. Tallow SA offers a traditional rendered fat with both kitchen and formulation uses, while McDairy provides the familiar versatility of dairy butter.

We value the honest, uncomplicated product focus. With one carefully chosen product from each brand, the combined page keeps the selection easy to understand while still respecting the separate identities behind it.
