We work with some of the best farmers including Warson Farm in Devon and Willersley Court in the Welsh Borders who care about their meat as much as we do. Once we met our farmers David Andrews and Johnny Morris and butchers Ian Warren and Neil Powell we knew these guys were right for us.
Their approach to ensuring they have quality beef matches our approach to food. Pouring the same passion and attention to detail into everything from animal husbandry and how to get the best from their cattle to the use of Himalayan rock salt in the hanging/drying rooms to maintain the correct humidity levels. Warren’s also ensure all our other meat ingredients have the same quality attributes as our beef.
With our fish we insist on working with companies that understand about freshness and sustainability. Fish for Thought and Paul Trudgian instantly pressed the right buttons for us.
