Meaty We are proud to serve Aubrey Allen Steaks: “Traditional beef herds, including breeds such as Aberdeen Angus; Hereford and Devon Red, sometimes crossed with continental cattle to enhance the finish, the cattle are from low populated areas of rolling hills with clean, fresh air and water. They are naturally reared for up to 24 months to full maturity to ensure a fuller flavour. To guarantee consistency, we source only a very narrow specification from producers. Our beef is dry-aged for at least 21 days to ensure natural tenderisation and intensified”
