Consistently good quality meat
Consistently good quality meat. Well butchered, just the right amount of fat rather than excessively so to increase weight to boost cost at the expense of a greasy result. A lovely boned and rolled sirloin joint. Highly recommended by us.

Great quality
Had a few items from my order and the meat is very good quality, it’s on the more expensive side however it’s so worth it! The beef especially is excellent.

The jury is still out
The jury is still out. We had a range of products, beef, lamb and pork and we have only tasted three so far. The beef strips which we made into Stroganoff were superb. The lamb chops were good but the rib-eye only average. The site is excellent and the range of products exciting. Delivery was spot on.We would be effusive if it wasn't for the rib-eye which was not as good as some competitors, including the finest range at a national supermarket. We want Swaledale to be successful so we emphasise this was one product and it wasn't bad, just average. So give them a try.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review.
We’re really pleased the beef strips worked so well for your Stroganoff and that the lamb chops and delivery all hit the mark. It’s also genuinely helpful to hear your honest view on the ribeye.
Ribeye is a cut people rightly have high expectations of. We work with native, grass-fed cattle rather than animals selected purely for consistency of size and yield, which means flavour and character can vary slightly from one steak to another. That’s part of cooking real animals rather than standardised product.
Thank you again for your support and for taking the time to share your experience.

Great meat products
Great meat products. The boned and rolled leg of pork and belly pork were delicious with beautiful crispy crackling. The bones made great stock for gravy. The delivery service was very good and the packaging of all the products bought was excellent and reached me perfectly fresh.
