Meat delivered?

GlasweJen

I'm looking for a service that will delivery high quality meat to my home. I don't like the meat in my local supermarket, it just doesn't taste very "meaty" so I want something on a par with butcher meat (my local butcher isn't wheelchair accessible).

Has anyone used a meat delivery service that allows users to customise their order (I don't eat pork) that they can recommend?

I dont no off one but maybe your local butcher would deliver to your door after his shift is over if you pay him abit extra? just a thought.

I've already asked but they are only willing to deliver the same thing every week where I'd prefer to be able to change what I order so that I'm not eating the same thing all the time.

I've recently been using Clare Barry, https://www.clarebarry.co.uk and I've been quite impressed. It works out a bit more expensive than supermarket meat, but not too much so, and the meat is really good - more "real" and less fatty or stuffed with water. It's worthwhile waiting til you have an empty freezer and doing a big order to get free delivery.

Thats abit stupid as they are losing a vaild customer by simply not wanting to take a 5min phone call on what you want...but are willing to deliver it to your door. Only other thing I can think of is paying someone to do it for you...i.e young person wanting abit of pocket money.

Do you get parcel deliveries? The next time you get a parcel delivered by someone who looks like they have their own vehicle, have a word with them. They may be able to fit you into their local round. Good luck.

Shop around local butchers, loads of them deliver now.

My local butchers (Portobello) deliver a wide range or stuff and they have award winning haggis.

I've heard good things about Clare Barry. I used Westin Gourmet but I wouldn't recommend them. The meat's of a reasonable quality (the chicken breast fillets anyway, the rest is basic - nothing special) but their customer service is non-existent. I've had two orders from them and they messed up twice, and so I won't use them again.

I had my first delivery from Donald Russell the other week. I only bought mince , the quality of it is first class - never tasted mince so good for years :T
