Lamb, Pork & Mutton

LAMB

Anglesey has always been renowned for its superb Spring Lamb. We pride ourselves on the quality of our Spring lamb which, again graze naturally on our lush pastures, to produce lamb from mid April onwards. The farm only used to have lamb available until September/October, but since starting Beef Direct we have had to change; we now have a flock of pedigree Black Welsh Mountain ewes. These produce the lamb that we sell from September to April. Again, this breed is well known for the ‘eating’ quality of its meat.

MUTTON

Due to popular demand, we have recently started selling our mutton. This meat comes from ewes that are between 2 to 5 years old and is hung for a longer period than the lamb. Mutton has a stronger flavour than lamb and requires to be cooked more slowly and at a slightly lower temperature.

PORK

A small number of pigs are kept on the farm. Outdoor –reared traditional breeds, they produce slowly matured pork. Home-cured bacon and gammon are made, not forgetting our selection of delicious sausages!

POULTRY

Many people ask us for chickens, but at the moment we are so busy that Brian says “no way José!!”
