About
As a whole carcass butcher, we work nose to tail, offering every part of the animal rather than focusing only on prime or fashionable cuts. Achieving a consistent rate of sale across the carcass, known as carcass balance, sits at the heart of our whole animal approach. That balance is closely tied to the rhythm of the seasons. By September, summer is beginning to give way to autumn and the way we cook shifts with it. Some of the best late summer produce is still abundant, whilst cooler days bring an appetite for slightly richer dishes, slower cooking and more time back in the kitchen. Demand for different cuts changes with the season too. By shopping our monthly specials, you help us maintain that balance. Every purchase supports our native breed farmers and helps ensure each animal is valued in full. This month’s selection brings together products particularly well suited to September, from lamb and late summer cooking to smoked pork, sausages and deeply savoury dishes for the first days of autumn.
