Eat Great Meat

An award winning online butcher, providing farm shop quality meat at affordable prices. Our mission However change was needed as the business expanded. As for me?
(1)

Our history of providing 'meat for people' goes all the way back to the 19th century when my enterprising great, great, great, great grandfather started farming land at Hunshelf. His son James saw an opportunity to enhance Thomas' farming work by butchering and selling meat to local families attracted to the area for the quarrying and wiredrawing trade. So ensued a steady business, maintained by t

he third generation, Joseph. Joseph Bramall moved the growing business to Near Coates Farm, the current day site. His son Ernest joined the business at the age of 14. He was a common figure at Pen*stone market and for the next 31 years he hawked meat every Friday and Saturday until his death. His son Norman took over at a young age, butchering and hawking meat and travelling around the Yorkshire markets, which he still does to this day. Although he no longer has his travelling shop (he is 83, so we'll let him off) his passion is still that of the 16 year old when he started out. My father Michael expanded the business into national and international wholesale and maintains excellent relationships with local farmers to ensure a fair deal for farmer, wholesaler and customer. I come from a long line of butchers and I want to keep the tradition and values of the past alive. I recognise that times have changed and selling on the Internet has replaced meat hawking rounds, but the core values of providing top quality meat at exceptional prices remain unchanged. Noel

🥩 THIS MONTH’S RECIPE | Slow Cooker Braised Beef Cheeks in Red Wine

It might still be Summer but in the EGM kitchen, proper comfort food has arrived. 😍

This month, Chef Steph is sharing one of her all-time favourites – beef cheeks slow-cooked in a rich red wine gravy until they’re so tender you can practically cut them with a spoon.

Served with creamy mash, honey-roasted carrots and braised red cabbage, it’s the kind of hearty, feel-good dinner that’s perfect for a lazy Sunday or cosy weekend at home. And with the slow cooker doing most of the hard work, it delivers serious restaurant-quality flavour without hours spent standing over the hob.

🍷 Rich, slow-cooked and absolutely worth the wait.

🥖 Let's settle the debate... what really is the best bread for a burger or sausage? 🍔🌭

The meat might be the star of the show (we'd definitely argue it is 😉), but the right bread can take your BBQ to the next level.

Here's what we'd choose here at Eat Great Meat...

🍔 Brioche Buns
Soft, buttery and slightly sweet. Perfect for juicy burgers, especially when topped with melted cheese, bacon and your favourite sauces.

🥨 Pretzel Buns
Chewy, rich and full of flavour. These hold up brilliantly to stacked burgers and pair beautifully with smoky beef and mature cheddar.

🥖 Classic White Rolls
Sometimes, you just can't beat a proper soft white roll. They're ideal for our award-winning sausages, especially with caramelised onions and a generous dollop of mustard or ketchup.

🌭 Crusty Rolls
A great choice if you like a bit more bite. Perfect for loaded sausages packed with toppings.

At the end of the day, whichever bread you choose, make sure it's fresh... and don't forget to toast it lightly on the BBQ. It only takes a minute but makes all the difference.

Now over to you...Which one gets your vote? 👇
