Services
Dry Aged Beef
Our dry-aged beef matures for 28-42 days in controlled conditions, enhancing tenderness and depth of flavour. Sourced from local pedigree cattle, each cut is hand-selected by our master butcher. Available as steaks, joints, or bespoke cuts for special occasions.
Free Range Pork
Sourced from Blythburgh farms where pigs roam outdoors year-round, our pork retains natural marbling and rich flavor. We offer whole carcass utilization, including sausages, bacon, and specialist cuts like collar and jowl.
Grass Fed Lamb
100% grass-fed Suffolk lambs provide lean, nutrient-rich meat with distinct terroir. Available as whole legs, loins, or diced portions, our cuts reflect traditional butchery techniques passed through generations.
Ready Meals
Chef-prepared meals using premium cuts, including cottage pie, lasagne, and curry. All meals use natural ingredients without preservatives, with gluten-free and dairy-free options available upon request.
