The major supermarkets are slashing the price of meat, making the weekly shop more affordable during tough times.
Two cuts in particular are down at Coles and Woolworths, while one wholesaler that supplies Australia's top restaurants has dropped prices by 50 per cent.
However, once this excess stock is gone prices across the country are expected to stabilise.
Consumers may even see a price rise, with experts predicting a 16 per cent drop in production due to the drought.
"We've just come out of panic buying - demand is now starting to stabilise in supermarkets so we're going to return to competition between Coles and Woolworths," retail expert Dr Gary Mortimer told 9News.
Coles spokesperson Martine Alpins said the supermarket giant was selling more fresh produce at the moment, and so was lowering the price of meat and fish.
"What we're trying to do is make sure our customer's basket can go further," Woolworths' Paul Harker said.
Haverick Meats is a major supplier to some of Australia's top restaurants, and since the lockdowns, its stock has banked up.
"It's pretty much all 50 per cent off, and all this meat used to go to our best restaurants," CEO Peter Andrews said.
For now, consumers are ahead, but that is likely to change once the excess stock is gone.
"Super high-end meat is quite affordable now because we're trying to move the stock," Mr Andrews said.
