Butchery
The butchers have their normal impressive display which includes the popular chicken cushions with orange. The chicken breast cushions are about £4 each whilst the leg cushions are only about £2 each. Personally I prefer the leg cushion which is very tasty and good value for an easy tea. Pop them into the oven for 45 mins at 180˚c, even I can do that!
Beef stir fry is a great warming dish and is also easy to cook as all the ingredients are in the mix: mangetout, peppers, baby sweetcorn, onion and water chestnuts with Lobbs’ sliced beef rump in a Chinese plum sauce. I asked Phil about this product and he said it’s “No waste and all taste”!
In the meat step deck there is a large selection of meat all pre-packed ready to pick up. At the moment there are packs of mutton such as a half mutton leg at £7.20 and mutton shoulder at about £4.50. These joints are very good value and have real flavour but please cook l o n g and s l o w.
The 5 x 1 lb packs of mince are still only £11.99 each and the chuck steak 5 x 1 lb packs are £14.19. Please do take advantage of the discount offer and fill your deep freeze; these packs of meat are so useful to have in stock.
Our butchers also make faggots and meatballs which are available in the step deck. I know not all of us would choose faggots but these are made here at Lobbs Farm Shop by our butchers and contain lungs, liver and lambs’ or pigs’ hearts combined with pork mince, dried onion and a spice mix. Lobbs’ own meatballs do not contain any offal but are a mix of pork and beef mince with a spicy tomato sauce and a liberal sprinkling of mixed herbs on top - great with pasta of your choice.
