I had the BBQ box + roast joints. I was very disappointed in what I received. the pork joint was tiny and had the biggest bit of rind fat I have ever seen. once that is taken away there might be enough for one person definitely not two. the burgers and steaks were full of fat and didn't look appetising at all. this was originally priced at £79.99, I paid £35 + P&P total of £40 using a code from this site. I feel ripped off having paid £40 so how they can sell this for £80 in good conscience I will never know. I can go to Lidl and get better quality meat and pay less for it. I will not be shopping with them again and I will also do more research before using codes from this site.

Doesn't this explain the burgers ?
"Our farmers' native breed cows are outdoor reared and grass fed, growing and maturing at their natural pace to develop a high fat content that keeps the meat moist during cooking. With our butchers then hanging and dry aging all of the gorgeous meat for at least 21 days, you're left with incredibly tasty beef, whichever cut you go for."
All the weights are given, so you shouldn't be surprised at the size of the joints.
IS Lidl high welfare then?0 -
The steak that is full of fat is going to be one of the tastiest steaks you've ever eaten, it's the fat that gives it flavour, just look at some nice expensive filet mignon, it is well marbled and full of flavour.0
