Our Tralee presence for quality meats

For folks in Tralee and across Kerry, we’re bringing the same quality HERD Craft Butchery has become known for. It’s about more than just meat; it’s about the farmers we work with, the animals they raise, and the incredible flavour that comes from real, sustainable farming. We ship our grass-fed beef, free-range pork, and heritage lamb nationwide, including right to your door in Tralee, packed in chilled boxes that keep everything perfect. Or, if you’re local, order online or schedule a pickup. We’ve got the full range of what we do, right here.

Sourcing Tralee’s finest cuts

We don’t just pick any animal; we know the farms. It’s a small detail that makes a massive difference to the final taste on your plate. That’s why we’re so choosy about our suppliers, working with a handful of small-batch producers across Ireland. For Tralee customers, this means you’re getting meat that’s been raised with care, on diets of grass and natural forage. We trace every animal back to the farm, so you know exactly where your food is coming from. It’s traceability you can trust, and flavour you can taste. You can find more on our premium free-range butcher service here.

This isn’t supermarket fodder. This is meat with character.

What we do in Tralee

Beyond the Butcher Shop: Online & Delivery

We know not everyone can place an order. That’s why our online store at herdbutchery.ie is just as important to us. We’ve put a lot of thought into our refrigerated shipping – it’s not cheap to do right, but it’s the only way we’d do it. You order, we pack it fresh in those insulated boxes with cold packs, and it’s with you fast. For Tralee, or anywhere else in Ireland, it means that perfect steak or Sunday roast joint arrives just as it left us. We also offer delivery options if you’re passing through or live nearby. It’s all part of our full list of services, designed to make getting great meat easier.

What you can expect from us

  • Grass-fed beef that actually tastes like beef. No more pale imitations.
  • Sustainably-raised pork, succulent and full of flavour. None of that watery stuff.
  • Pasture-raised lamb, with that distinct, delicious character you’d expect from Irish farms.
  • Artisan charcuterie, made in-house with traditional methods and the best ingredients.
  • Sausages and burgers crafted from our own quality meats.

We stand behind everything we sell. If it’s not exceptional, we’re not selling it. It’s that simple. Back to the homepage.
