Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh!
(Happy St. Patrick’s Day to you all!)

Spring may be just around the corner, but while the weather is still fresh and the breeze is crisp, there is nothing better than a slow-cooked meal to warm the house.

Ahead of St. Patrick’s Day tomorrow, we have Premium Diced Lamb available in the shop. Hand-cut from high-quality local stock, it’s lean, tender, and the perfect foundation for a traditional Irish Stew.

Whether you’re celebrating your Irish roots or just want a hearty family meal while we wait for the sun to come out, pop in and see us.

wait is over! The 6 Nations is back, and things kick off this weekend with the big one: England vs. Wales.

Whether you’re singing 'Swing Low, Sweet Chariot' or 'Land of my Fathers', there’s one thing both sides can agree on—you can’t watch the match on an empty stomach.

The Result: Flaky, golden, butcher-quality sausage rolls that’ll keep the nerves at bay until the final whistle.

LOW AND SLOW: THE BEAUTY OF B***D SHIN

Looking to banish the winter blues? There is perhaps no more rewarding cut in the shop than b***d Shin of Beef.

Shin is a hard-working muscle, which means it is packed with deep, intense flavour. When braised slowly, the natural connective tissue melts away, resulting in a sauce that is naturally thick and meat that is exceptionally tender. It is the gold standard for a traditional stew.

We've done all the hard work for you, b***d and hand trimmed Shin of Beef is now just £13.99 a kg. Just brown it off, add your vegetables and seasonings, and let time and slow heat do the rest.

If you're looking for inspiration, try out our new Beef Shin Bourguignon recipe on the website. https://colyfordbutchers.co.uk/beef-shin-bourguignon

There is a simple, quiet joy in a slow-cooked meal on a cold January day. As many of our customers know, the secret to a rich, silky gravy isn't found in a packet, but in the cut of meat itself.

For a truly traditional stew, we recommend diced Chuck Steak. Hand-prepared to ensure the perfect balance of lean meat and delicate marbling. As it cooks "low and slow," that marbling melts away, creating a depth of flavour and a tenderness that you simply won't find in generic supermarket stewing beef.

£15.99 per KG, or 2.5KG packs for £34.99

And if you need any advice on cooking times or seasonings, just ask us at the counter—we're always happy to help. Alternatively, check out our website for fantastic recipes like this Classic Beef Stew.
