This is not my usual butchers, but I thought I would give this ago and in the spirit of enquiry on…read moreSaturday bought some pork and leek sausages, bacon and the Sunday roast. The shop was very busy which was a good sign and looked clean from the outside. I wasn't sure about the meat being in the front window even though it was in a covered glass case however that was my only quibble. The guys behind the counter were all very helpful and polite and the final bill although high was about average for what I bought. On cooking the bacon and sausages I was quite happy to see no manky white stuff came out the bacon and was happy with the taste. The sausages I was a bit disappointed with as the casing was quite tough. Still, not bad. The Sunday roast was brilliant. No shrinkage and the meat was tender and juicy. So this butcher is recommended, but I'll stick to my usual one.

That said, even if you live on the other side of Basingstoke, you should make the time to visit these guys. They always have interesting meal ideas (the lamb swirls are amazing!) and will always take the time to give advice. The quality of the produce is simply superb. I got fed up with the rubbish service that you get from the big supermarkets, so thought I'd try and support more local businesses. What a great plan that turned out to be. If you've only ever bought meat from a supermarket (like I had), then you don't know what you're missing. :-) I've ordered my Christmas turkey already and they're going to bone it and stuff it for me. Nice. Thoroughly recommended.

The taste of D Prings products are truly awesome if you wanna impress people with your BBQ skills half the battles in selecting the right meat. The queues are quickly serviced so you don't have to wait long. The butchers were friendly enough and the price was very good I go there whenever I want a good BBQ selection. The best cuts are always available so if you want it just ask, they'll come back with a great steak. I had 8 1/4 pounders and 12 sausages for just over £5 that's great value for money.

Ahhh, butchers. It takes me back to shopping trips with my grandmother, these places do. There'd be…read morea monumental trek up Cathedral Road that would seem to take weeks, but knowing my grandmother's hatred for physical exertion, probably only took an hour or so. We'd maybe stop into a cafe for egg and chips and my nan would, of course, know the owner. We'd go to a couple of pound shops. Not to look about, mind you. But because my nan wanted very specific things from there. And then, before heading to the bus stop, we'd go to the butchers "to pick up something for our tea". That was the routine. And now that I'm an adult myself, I can't help but smile whenever I dive in to grab a steak "for my tea". Of course, that smile also comes from the fact that in this particular butcher, it's not uncommon to see the meat cut right in front of you if you go at the right time of the day. There's something visceral and satisfying about watching your food being sliced up right in front of you. It's like being primal by proxy. And the prices on top of this... they're just the greatest thing ever. Buying a steak big enough to beat a man to death with for pocket change gives an immense amount of satisfaction. And then heading back to the cave with a hunk of meat over your shoulder? You feel like a hunter. What's not to love?

From meat to chicken to pork sausages, these are some of the things you will find here. I have brought some sausages and cooked them at home. They tasted brilliant and I ended up having some hot dogs. I have also brought some chicken legs and thighs from here and used them to make a Thai Green Chicken curry. Again the chicken itself was excellent and I have no doubts I will be back. I do have to travel some way to get to Handsworth from West Bromwich but it is worth the travelling because I know I am guaranteed quality food from here. Staff are excellent which makes this place even better.

M J Dalton Butchers has the appearance of a traditional butcher all the way down to the sawdust on…read morethe floor. It's clean and friendly and does a sideline in condiments and conserves. But what it's most famous for is the selection of exotic meats that are flown in from South Africa. These include crocodile, springbok, wildebeest and zebra. It's clear that they are aiming for the speciality niche in the Bristol market, as they also offer quite a selection of eggs, with pretty speckled quail eggs in a basket on the counter. Then there's things like chitterling and homemade faggots listed on one of the several sandwich boards outside, and don't forget the pork and beef dripping, white and black pudding and tripe! But the best item, to my mind, is the 'handraised pork pies'! Someone please tell me how you had rear a pork pie! Joking aside, this butchers is great. I tend to go for the more conventional cuts of meat (and by their own admission most other people do too - they say they stock things like crocodile and zebra for the novelty value so that people can try it once). I also like a bit of black pudding every now and then, and it's good to know that there's a butchers with an exhaustive selection of stock in Bristol, so that I can guarantee that I will always get what I want.

The sheer selection in this old school butchers shop is second to none. Prime cuts of beef, pork and chicken are supplied to local schools, nursing homes and restaurants as well as the hungry locals. Pigeon, pheasant, partridge and venison are some of my other favourites gracing the menu board alongside veal and rabbit. They don't just buy the stuff in and knock it back out, but they live it. They know it. Behind the scenes are some of the cleanest most professional kitchens I have ever seen, where they make all their delights fresh and on the day - just try their 4oz lamb and mint burgers for a mere 50p! With ostrich, camel and crocodile meat as well as quail eggs being standard runners - you simply can't walk past this well stacked, well planned shop.

From the green and white awning , to the little painted pig holding the open sign and the delivery boy's bike with the wicker basket out front, Young's is as picture card perfect as butchers could possibly be. This continues inside as well with a vast array of old-style instruments and utensils that could be the props department if they ever get round to making Saw XIII: Victorian Punishment 3D. Specialising in pork, the friendly guy behind the meat counter will happily talk you through what's on offer and what to do with it. If you walk in and no one's around ring the bell, as he's probably outback chopping up stuff. It's a tad pricey but you get what you pay for. Four rashers of bacon set me back £2.20 but unlike the rubbish you get from supermarkets, it isn't plumped up with water and doesn't shrivel in the pan to size of a postage stamp. It was also delicious. Young's is a really nice, friendly shop and worth a visit if you ever pop to Llantwit for the day.
