Three Blue Ducks Offers the World’s First Low-Emissions Steak with Sea Fed Beef
Byron Bay and Rosebery locations first to introduce Sea Fed Beef, reducing methane emissions by up to 67%.
Three Blue Ducks, the Australian restaurant group celebrated for its commitment to sustainability and high-quality food, is proud to announce that it is now serving the world’s first low-emissions steak. As part of their ongoing efforts to make great food better for the planet, Three Blue Ducks has partnered with Sea Forest to introduce Sea Fed Beef – a pioneering, low-emissions, grass-fed Black Angus beef that actively reduces methane emissions by up to 67%.
Sea Fed Beef is now available at Three Blue Ducks’ Byron Bay and Rosebery locations, marking a world-first in sustainable dining. By utilising Sea Forest’s innovative SeaFeed, a seaweed-based supplement, the restaurant group is taking a significant step toward mitigating the environmental impact of livestock farming while delivering a delicious, high-quality steak to diners.
“At Three Blue Ducks, we believe that amazing food can be good for the planet, which is why we’re so excited to serve the world’s first low-emissions steak,” said Darren Robertson, co-founder of Three Blue Ducks. “With Sea Fed Beef, we’re not just offering our diners a quality product, we’re also helping tackle the climate crisis by reducing the methane emissions from cattle. It’s a true win for everyone – from the farmers, to the environment, and to our customers who can enjoy their steak with a clearer conscience.”
Sea Forest’s SeaFeed™ is a natural seaweed supplement formulated from the evolving science of the native red seaweed, Asparagopsis that when added to cattle feed, reduces methane emissions by up to 67%. Methane, a potent greenhouse gas, is 84 times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, which makes its reduction vital in the fight against climate change. By incorporating Sea Fed Beef into their menus, Three Blue Ducks is helping reduce the agricultural sector’s contribution to global warming, one meal at a time.
The Sea Fed Beef served at Three Blue Ducks is 100% Australian-reared, free-range Black Angus, raised on nutrient-rich pastures with no antibiotics or hormones. Cattle are fed a small amount of SeaFeed, which has a natural, scientifically-backed ability to reduce methane emissions, all while maintaining the same rich and tender flavour diners expect from a premium steak.
This new offering gives diners the chance to enjoy a premium steak with a significantly lower environmental footprint. It also supports local farmers by providing them with an opportunity to reduce their methane emissions and maintain their livelihoods without sacrificing the quality of their product.
"Sea Fed Beef is huge for the global food industry,” said Sam Elsom, CEO of Sea Forest. “We’re thrilled that Three Blue Ducks is leading the way in offering this incredible product, which we hope will soon be found on menus around the world. Not only does it deliver the quality and flavour that steak lovers crave, but it also represents a crucial step toward more sustainable, responsible farming practices. We’re proud to see our innovation having a positive impact, both on the environment and on the dining experience in Australia and hopefully globally."
Three Blue Ducks is proud to be the first to bring this world-first low-emissions steak to their tables, reinforcing their commitment to offering exceptional, sustainable dining experiences. With this new addition, they continue to lead the way in sustainable gastronomy, offering their customers the chance to enjoy quality beef while also making a positive impact on the planet.
About Three Blue Ducks
Three Blue Ducks was founded by three mates travelling the world and cultivating ideas around a more sustainable approach to living.

Although each location differs greatly in aesthetic, the approach to sustainability, ethically sourced produce and waste reduction strategies remains very much the same across the board, positioning the Three Blue Ducks team as thought leaders in conscious consumption. An approach which is shared by their customers along with a love of good food.
