Mutton Back Chops

Usually playing second fiddle to the more popular Lamb Chop, the Mutton Back Chop has an allure of its own which should not be written off. Taken from the rich, juicy and full of flavour loin, our mutton loin chops easily stand toe to toe with the more popular Lamb Chop, and have a more sweet but earthy, deep, rounded and more robust flavour profile. The light covering of fat and gentle marbling will melt into the meat while it cooks, whilst the bone will help to keep the meat moist and add flavour to your sauce or gravy. Mutton Back Chops are wonderfully versatile, with a deep flavour profile that lends itself equally well to simple grilling, or even cooked with sauces.

You’ll be pleased to know that all of our Mutton originates from a breed of sheep known as Texel. This breed is renowned as being the most expensive sheep breed to buy in the UK because their breeding lines are so tightly controlled. This also ensures that the quality of the meat is consistently strong and uniform. Although the Texel breed hails from the Netherlands, the breed has grown in popularity in the UK, specifically because of the exceptional quality of its meat. The Texel is renowned for its outstanding muscular development, which means that most of its carcass consists of lean meat. In the meat industry, the leaner the meat, the higher its quality, and this is consistent with our ethos of only supplying the absolute best quality meats to our customers.
