Pure Wagyu
Earl Stonham Farm in Suffolk is home to our grass fed British Wagyu.
Our exclusive partnership with Earl Stonham Farm allows us to work closely with chefs to provide them with the finest cuts of pure English Wagyu.
Andrew Deacon travelled the world in search of the best beef and fell in love with Tajima strain of Wagyu and so set up his Earl Stonham Farm in Suffolk.
Welfare is of utmost paramount to Andrew who raises the wonderful pure Wagyu on the 600 acre farm in Suffolk and finishes on grain. Just ask the chefs that we have took to the farm to see it for themselves.
We receive whole carcasses each month from Earl Stonham to give you the option of being able to select unique products from us to make your menu stand out. Our craftsman use seam butchery techniques on the best Wagyu to provide ultimately 15 different products for your menu from striploin to ribs and our latest 100% pure Wagyu Burger.
South West Lamb
The area of the south west of England has ‘Champagne style’ PGI status for its lamb – that’s how good it is!
The combination of a great natural product and our purchasing philosophy to ‘only buy whole lambs directly from one abattoir to one classification’ has encouraged our chef customers to tell us they get ‘a match made in heaven’. We deliver an unrivalled consistency of shape, size and flavour as well as a great variety of cuts created by our master craftsmen to ensure chefs have a real point-of-difference on their menus.
“Naturally-reared in the West Country for perfect flavour and tenderness”
Free-range Pork
Our free-range pork is sourced from Jimmy Butler’s Blythburgh farm, a family business who are as passionate about welfare as we are.
We only purchase the young, sweet females (known as gilts) from Jimmy and his family. Why? Because we believe it is the very best product for the plate with higher levels of internal fat and a natural sweetness.
The Suffolk air provides a lovely salty flavour and the sandy soils allows pigs to roam and live happy stress-free lives.
Jimmy joined us in 2016 along with a group of chefs to enjoy a talk by the wonderful Temple Grandin (an international expert in animal welfare) and was inspired to take away even more ideas on how to enhance the welfare of the pigs that he rears.
We are proud to take chefs around Jimmy’s farm and have created generations of ambassadors for this Great British free range pork. You can view images from our farm trip here.
Utilising the whole carcass, our butchers craft many products using seam butchery techniques. From Butlers bangers and maple cured rib eyes to french-style pork cutlets.
“Naturally bred and outdoor-reared for outstanding succulence and flavour”
Free-range Caldecott Chickens
Robert Caldecott’s family poultry business was started in 1933 so there is great synergy between our two companies.
Robert advises other poultry farmers and is so respected that in 2017 he won ‘National Poultry Supplier of the Year’. The chickens are a naturally slow-grown bird and nurtured for 15 more days than standard free-range birds to better enhance the flavour and texture – both of which will take you back to a time when chicken tasted like chicken, with wonderful crispy skin and succulence. Robert’s Holly Farm also provides our incredible all-year-round turkeys.
“Reared naturally for ‘old time’ flavour and texture”
