What We Sell

About our beef

Our beef is organic, which means that it is free from residues and GM.

Our cattle are reared on clover rich pastures which mean that their meat is high in Omega 3 fatty acids.

Our beef is killed, butchered and sold locally which means that there are few food miles incurred.

Why hang?

"Hanging is far more than just a quaint tradition. And in the case of beef it is critical." Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall

Our beef is hung for three weeks, which means that the meat is tender and tasty. Whilst hanging the beef matures and it becomes more tender and gains flavour. It also dries out by up to 20%.

This is good for the consumer but bad for the seller. We have less to sell but it means that on cooking there is virtually no shrinkage so you have more to eat. You will particularly notice this with the mince

The benefits of fat

Fat is crucial to provide succulence and flavour. A generous external layer is important to protect the meat during hanging and keep in the flavour and juices during cooking. Marbling, the fine threads of fat that run between and within the muscles, bastes the meat as it cooks guaranteeing flavour and tenderness.

The external fat can of course be left on your plate when eating (or thrown to the dog) but do not expect good beef to be fat free!

Delivery vs. collection

We encourage self collection when passing, which reduces environmentally expensive polystyrene packaging and food miles.

Our meat is boxed in reused vegetable and fruit boxes and is individually wrapped and labeled which means it is easy to identify and reduces waste.

N.B. We will deliver locally.

Price list

Joint	£ / Kg	Pack Size Kg	Description
Mince	7.00	0.5	Coarsely minced beef keeps its texture better after cooking, ideal for slow-cooked mince dishes.
Braising Steak	9.00	0.5	Beautifully marbled meat, ideal for slow cooking in small amount of flavoured liquid. Sold in steak slices.
Stewing	7.00	0.5/0.6	Fantastically tender meat when slow cooked in stews. Sold pre-cubed.
Roasting	12	1.5	Roasting joints sold boned and rolled. Joint sizes vary from 1-3 kg.
Slow Roast	8	1	Quite fatty joint ideal for pot roasting with root vegetables and red wine!
Rump steak	20	0.5	The tastiest of the steaks, but the chewiest. Fantastic fried, grilled and barbequed.
Sirloin steak	24	0.5	Cheaper and tastier than fillet and almost as tender. With the marbled fat, again great fried, grilled and barbequed.
Fillet steak	40	0.5	In a 300kg beef carcass there is only 2 kg of fillet which explains why it is so expensive! Supremely tender but with less flavour than the other steaks. Never over cook it!
Rib on Bone	12	2 / 3 / 4 ribs	The ultimate roasting joint. The marbled fat keeps the meat lubricated; the bone keeps the moisture and the flavour.
