All of our beef comes from our home-grown herd of South Devon Cattle. The cattle spend their lives on the Red Down in the summer grazing the lush grass and herbal lays that add flavour to the meat as well as diversification to the natural habitat. When they are housed in the winter, they continue to be fed grass in the form of silage and whole-crop that is harvested in the summer and stored for winter-feeding.
Joints
Whether your looking for something for the slow cooker while you head out for a Sunday stroll or a quick joint to pop in at a high temperature – we have something to suit your needs.
Rolled Rib – £35/kg
The King of Roasts, a rolled rib of beef is a boneless joint from the fore rib known for its marbling, tenderness and full-on flavour. A luxurious choice for those special Sunday lunches – sear and then slow cook for juicy results.
Rib on the Bone – £30/kg
A joint of rib on the bone delivers exceptional tenderness and juiciness owing to its generous marbling and natural fat covering. The presence of the bone adds an extra depth of flavour through the roasting process.
Perfect for special occasions, the bone-in rib joint makes for a stunning centre piece.
Top Rump – £28/kg
Top rump, also known as thick flank, is a leaner joint perfect for roasting at a high heat initially before cooking to your desired finish at a lower temperature. To get the best out of your top rump joint, ensure it’s rested for at least 20 minutes before carving.
Boxeater – £20/kg
A traditional Cornish cut of beef taken from the shoulder area, the boxeater is prized for its rich flavour. Similar to a brisket, this cut becomes beautifully tender when treated to a low, slow cook making it a favourite for Sunday roasts and hearty family meals.
Topside – £20/kg
A traditional Sunday favourite, topside is a lean cut from the hind leg. Suitable for both slow-cooking or roasting it is the ideal joint for a busy family. When thinly-sliced it is perfect for roast beef sandwiches.
Brisket – £16/kg

Steaks

Beautiful grilled, pan-fried and butter-basted, or wrapped up in a beef wellington parcel; fillet steak delivers indulgence in abundance.
Sirloin Steak – £32/kg
Cut from the rear, between the ribs and the rump, the sirloin is a lean cut with a great balance of texture and flavour. Due to coming from muscles that do less work, sirloin steaks have less marbling than a rib eye but still offer both juiciness and depth of taste.
Versatile and easy to cook, sirloin is best cooked at a high temperature. Sliced thinly, this popular cut is an excellent choice for stir-fry dishes.
Ribeye Steak – £32/kg
A cut with rich, succulent flavour renowned for its marbling which melts during the cooking process leading to a deliciously tender and juicy offering.

Minute Steak – £20/kg
Cut from the top rump, minute steak is a thin and tender cut of beef perfect for quick meals. Cooking in just a couple of minutes it’s great in steak sandwiches and stir-fries or for a lighter option enjoy it in a salad.
