    Has to be a free range black feathered bronze turkey

    Free range smoked ham

    Free range beef


    The meat is very expensive in comparisons to where and what i buy normally


    I dont expect much change out of 150 quid for the 3 bits


    Does anyone else go to to a different butcher or alternative to the supermarket for this dinner

    We do, NLA.

    Steve's in Joydens Wood - butcher to Dean Kiely when he lived locally.

    Getting me own turkeys in for next year, along with chickens and quail. Got a few wild rabbit, pigeon and pheasant in me freezer and I think there's still a limp of boar in there too, don't get much more free range than that!

    A Butcher is not just for Christmas! We frequent Steve's fine establishment on a regular basis. He's a great butcher and a great bloke - supports Charlton for a start.

    He's a great supporter of charities as well.

    Lovely leg of Lamb for me. My favourite meat and too expensive to have on a regular basis, so that's gonna be my xmas treat. Yummy................

    Woke up this morning, opened the fridge... What a pong! Our massive turkey had gone off. Luckily the butcher replaced it with an even bigger one. Got a couple of mates coming for dinner, but there is enough to feed about eight there...

    It's me, my fiancé and old man this year and me old mans doing us goose. Never had it before so am pretty intrigued? My favourite part of the day is turkey sarnies so I hope the goose ones are as good.
