Your go-to for craft beef, chicken, pork, and lamb in Clonmel

Right here in Clonmel, we’re serious about meat. Not the supermarket stuff, mind you. We’re talking about the kind that’s made you stop and think, ‘Jeez, that’s good.’ It starts with the farmers we trust, the ones who respect the land and the animals. We get it. You want flavour. You want texture. You want to know where it came from. So do we. That’s why we put in the hours, the care, and the know-how at the butcher’s block.

The real deal in beef and lamb

Beef, people often talk about marbling.

Sure, it’s important. But it’s only one piece of the puzzle. For us, the breed, the diet, and how the animal was raised are just as vital. That’s why we work with small farms in Ireland where the cattle graze on pasture, building natural flavour. It’s a slower process, no question. Not a slam dunk like factory farming. But the result? A depth of taste you just can’t fake. We’ve seen it transform Sunday roasts from a chore into a highlight.

Same goes for lamb. Forget that often bland, waterlogged stuff. Our lamb has character. It’s rich, deeply satisfying. We’ve had customers come back from a trip to see our setup in the heart of Tipperary and swear they can taste the wild herbs the sheep were feeding on. It’s not hyperbole; it’s a to good farming and honest butchery.

Pork and chicken with proper flavour

The best sausage is often the simplest.

Pork is often misunderstood. It’s not just for bacon or chops, though we do those exceptionally well. We think about heritage breeds, too. Pigs that root around, that get a bit dirty, that eat a varied diet. This makes for meat that’s firmer, has a better fat distribution, and a flavour that’s more complex. It’s a bit like the difference between a supermarket tomato and one grown in your own garden. Both are tomatoes, but the experience is worlds apart. We’ve got pork cuts that’ll make you reconsider what you thought you knew about it.

Chicken, well. You’d think chicken is chicken, wouldn’t you? Not here. We’re talking about birds that have had space to roam, that have eaten a proper diet. This isn’t about adding fancy labels; it’s about basic animal welfare translating directly into better meat. Juicier. More flavourful. Holds up to cooking without drying out. It makes a difference whether you’re roasting a whole bird or breading thighs for a quick meal. We’ve seen people who usually avoid chicken rave about ours. They just don’t expect it to taste this good.

Our sausages and charcuterie

Our sausages are a big deal for us. We don’t mess about with fillers or excessive fat. It’s good meat, seasoned well. Something with a bit of spice, or a breakfast blend, we’ve got you covered. We find a lot of folk in Clonmel, especially around Gladstone Street, have a favourite and stick to it. We respect that. We also encourage trying new things. Our Cumberland style is a cracker, and the Irish-style breakfast sausage is a morning essential.

And the charcuterie? That’s where things get really interesting. Curing, smoking, air-drying – it’s an art form we’ve honed over years. It’s about patience. Using the right salts, the right spices. Letting time and the environment do their magic. We’ve got salamis, pancetta, bresaola. Stuff that turns a simple cheese board into something special. It’s a different kind of meat craft entirely, but just as rewarding. We’ve put together offerings that can stand up against anything you’d find in, say, the artisan markets of County Limerick. Just without the long drive, for those of you closer to Mitchell Street or O’Connell Street.
