🦌 First venison of the season is here!
The first venison of the season has arrived in our butchery, and we’re getting ready for another year of one of our favourite seasonal meats.
Our venison is home reared here at our farm …. No miles …
Farm to kitchen goodness.
Venison is naturally lean, high in protein and packed with essential nutrients, making it a delicious and nutritious choice.
🌿 Nutritional benefits of venison
• High in protein – supports muscle growth and repair.
• Rich in iron – important for healthy red blood cells and reducing tiredness and fatigue.
• High in vitamin B12 – supports normal energy metabolism, the nervous system and healthy blood cells.
• A good source of zinc – contributes to normal immune function and helps maintain healthy skin.
• Naturally low in fat – venison is generally leaner than many other red meats, while still being packed with flavour.
🥩 Choosing your cut
Haunch – one of the most versatile cuts. Perfect for roasting whole, or cut into steaks and medallions. Best served pink and rested.
Loin – tender and delicate, making it ideal for steaks, medallions or quick cooking in a hot pan or on the grill.
Shoulder – a harder-working cut with plenty of flavour. Best cooked slowly, making it perfect for casseroles, stews, curries and pulled venison.
Neck – packed with flavour and collagen. A fantastic slow-cooking cut for rich stews, ragùs and pies.
Shin & shanks – full of flavour and perfect for slow cooking. Give them plenty of time and they become beautifully tender, making them ideal for hearty stews, casseroles and rich sauces.
Mince – incredibly versatile and a great way to enjoy venison in burgers, meatballs, bolognese, cottage pie and more.
Being farm-raised and butchered here, we can make the most of the whole animal, from premium steaks to those underrated slow-cooking cuts that are full of flavour.
Venison season is officially underway 🦌 Pop in and ask our butchers about the best cut for whatever you’re cooking.
