Written by the company

GREAT FARMERS
We're proud to source our meat from local farms, cattle markets and abattoirs near to us in North East England. Hard working independent farmers, who know and respect their animals and every inch of their farm. By trading this way we cut out middlemen and pay a better price for quality, that is fairer on the farmer and the customer.
GREAT BUTCHERS
All our meat is hand-cut to order by the GBMC butchery team at our meaty HQ. Our Master Butcher is a stickler for quality, buying choice meat and maturing it until it's just right in our ageing room. Whether it's cutting, dicing or slicing, we make sure it's as tasty as can be, and that's why our meat is cut to order the day before it arrives with you.
GREAT MEAT
We use food grade temperature controlled packaging to ensure your meat arrives nice and chilled, within 24 hours of leaving our fridge. Consistently tested by our technical team, we are confident it is the safest way possible to send meat to you. Now with one-hour delivery slots.

Beef Brisket & Short Ribs

Brisket well cut and prepared. Tasted great slow cooked with Guinness and black treacle sauce. Short ribs perfect length as all 8 fit exactly into the slow cooker. Doing these braised with espresso and whisky 😋
I still just wish the packaging (insulation) was recyclable/ more sustainable 🤨

I love the food it’s just a massive shame that the delivery notes don’t get past on the drivers! As they keep leaving it in direct sunlight on my doorstep which gets very hot in the summer so I will not be able to order from this company when the weather starts warming up as it hits between 30 and 40° on my doorstep

Very poor packaging

Very poor packaging - especially for items that might be squishy, like burgers, etc. Ours came with the who lot slide down to one end of the large container they were in (10 burgers) - resulting in those at the bottom being completely squashed and no longer burger like! Also, the rib eye steaks are VERY VERY thin. Not what i want (or expected). Would not buy again from them and will look for better.

I like this business most of the time

I like this business most of the time. But Premium Beef Gastro Burgers, 113g each (10 per pack) is disastrous, inedible. Full of very hard things in them, impossible to chew. Unfortunately I cannot recommend them. It will feed the foxes, not us. I feel cheated.
