Valentine's Day is fast approaching and for those out there who are romantically inclined, no doubt you are frantically working out what to do right now. Do you go to the local bistro and pay over the odds to share an overdone chateaubriand and overpriced bottle of plonk - with every other Tom, Dick and Harry? Do you try and...

All of our pork comes from native-breed pigs, that have been reared outdoors, on British farms; and it should come as no surprise that we are supremely confident of the quality and flavour of the meat. But there is always room to push things up a notch or two. Which is why we also offer something extra special in our...

It may now be 2019 - Happy New Year everyone btw! - but the dust has barely yet to settle over at T&G headquarters.  This is in part due to mania of Christmas and New Year. Butchers up and down the land, never really get to rest over the festive period.  As soon as December edges into sight, it is...

There are two aims with regards to this latest T&G blog post. The first is to make you aware that Christmas is no less than 22 days away now.  The second is give you some inspiration regarding what you could rustle up for your guests. You know, before the main event that is commonly known as Christmas dinner. However...

One of the greatest joys of walking into a butchers, has to be the time spent simply perusing the counter and working out what you fancy taking away for the night.  Of course, some people do walk in with a solid agenda and a huge lump of rib-eye on their minds. Quite often it's a case of 'Wham, bang, thank...

Leaves are now falling to the ground, the air is now turning crisp and now would be a perfect opportunity to wax lyrical about getting all cosy and comfortable for the rest of the year. Why, it even formed the central focus of our latest T&G newsletter. Hmm, yes, slow cuts - all luscious and melting in the mouth...

How many ways do we love to cook steaks, here at Turner & George? Well, let us count the ways. Direct over wood or charcoal is always a good route. Dirty and straight onto searing coals is even better. But a cast iron pan, on a high heat in the kitchen, is also a decent bet. So long as you flip...

Another Meatopia is now done and dusted. Another fine weekend of meat, drink, fire and music is now a sweet memory. But don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened. As some tree-hugging, vegan, hippy must have said. At one time or another. And if you missed the shenanigans, do not fret. There is always next year. For the...

Placing a huge hunk of beef, straight down on some glowing white coals, flickering with flame, does sound counter-intuitive, doesn't it? After all, if you've gone all that way to sourcing something that is proper and ethical, and full of flavour - and costing a pretty penny too - why on earth should you try to burn the bejaysus out of...

Hands up if you love a good Scotch Egg. Of course you do. Everyone loves a Scotch Egg. After reading that first sentence, there will no doubt be a veritable 'swooshing' sound, up and down the land, as arms and hands go flying up. Depending of course, on how many people read this post at any given time! It...

Out of all the sausages we make at Turner & George, the Butcher's Dog is perhaps the best one of all. You have to be careful making such statements, mind. It's a bit like suddenly announcing who your favourite child is, at a family BBQ or wedding anniversary party. The needle can come scratching right off the record with that...

At T&G Towers, we are always keeping our beady eyes on what's cooking out there. On Twitter, Instagram and even Facebook. So much so, that collectively, we spend a large proportion of the day staring at our screens, crossed-eyed, with drool running down our t-shirts. Such is the addictive nature of social meeja. And every now and then, we...
