Mutton Leg

With a more ‘meatier’ flavour than Lamb, Mutton Leg with the bone is great for traditional South Asian curries when chopped up or even as a hearty slow roast when left whole. Cut from the hind leg of the Sheep carcass, Mutton Leg has a robust flavour and the meat is particularly succulent and juicy, with the fat marbling running through the joint, and the thin layer of fat just below the skin, adding additional juiciness and protection whilst cooking. This is an easy joint of meat to cook, and with a little patience, you will be rewarded with a super tasty meal. Leave it on the bone, and you will also have everyone fighting over the sumptuous, silky and intensely Umami bone marrow!

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.
