When these have gone there will be no more!

Norfolk Horn Meat has been described thus : -

1.  They produce a lean carcass of darker meat which is well flavoured and succulent
2. The breed produces ‘nice meaty carcass lambs’ and the tender meat is said to be ‘fine grained’ or even ‘venison like’

All I know, is that I have just eaten the first of this season's lamb chops, and it was beautiful! (Sorry, I am a Welsh sheep farmer, not a Norfolk Turkey producer, but the adjective is certainly right for our lamb!)

We have the following meat for sale:-

See notes below To order Phone 01994 231 867 between 10.00am and 6.00pm. or e-mail

1. These are from three pedigree Norfolk Horn Ewe Lambs born and reared at Glyn-Coch. They have spent most of their lives at grass with the rest of the flock, but were brought indoors at Christmas when snow meant that they could not get at the grass. Since then they have been in a large lose box with an older companion sheep, and have been fed on hay and a mixture of sugar beet and proprietary ewe nuts. (Until slaughter 15/2/2010)
2. They have been professionally slaughtered (Monday 15th February 2010), hung and butchered at a well known local family business and collected by us in sealed packs on 19th February. They were frozen within 3 hours of collection. (In case you are worried about slaughtering, I have watched some of our animals being slaughtered, and the whole process is very quiet and gentle. The animals are walked quietly to the stunner, and simply lie down and go to sleep. I have seen no sign of distress in any animals entering this facility. It is a small family business, with the most modern facilities and equipment.)
3. The packs were weighed and labeled by us before being frozen - so weights include a few grammes of polythene packaging. The balance used was a Tesco Glass Top Digital Scale model EK5350.31P with a minimum measure of 1g (if I understood the blurb.) You may have a similar balance in your kitchen!
4. Prices are typical of those charged by local supermarkets and master butchers following a survey of 7 or 8 websites. (Their prices are remarkably similar, but we have a far superior product. I would say that wouldn't I!)
5. The table above is intended  to show the range we have available. Weights are approximate (see note 3 above). We will try to keep the table up to date, but from time to time sales may be made between updates. If you request a particular pack, and it is no longer available, we will inform you and show you the pack that is most similar to the one you requested. 
6. Although we requested that all chops were packed in groups of three we have discovered that one pack contained four chops. We will endeavour to ensure that you get exactly what you asked for, but we cannot open the packs to be absolutely certain. 
7. We have discussed our meat sales with an official of the County Council on site. We have official approval. 
8. As the meat is frozen and in sealed packs there is no official guidance on a sell by or use by date, but we suggest that if you are local and can take the meat home with you without thawing then you should eat it before August. If  it thaws before you can get it into your freezer then you should eat it on the same day. 
9. Prices shown are for meat collected from Glyn-Coch.  
10. We cannot take responsibility for losses that occur after the meat has left our premises, but please tell us the nature of any problems so that we can improve our future service.
11. We understand that we cannot send frozen meat to you, by third parties. (No post. No couriers)
