Autumnal changes

Autumnal changes

Time again for hearty stews and crunchy leaves underfoot. We have all the cold weather cuts back in after an awesome summer of barbecues and balmy days.

Beef short ribs and shin are perfect for unctuous casseroles or try diced steak if you prefer a quicker cooking, leaner version.

Velvety Vacherin Mont d’Or cheese is back and available in individual boxes or as a wedge from the deli counter.

Venison and game birds are also in season and starting to come in. If there is a specific bird or beast you are looking for, and you don’t see it in the windows, ask a butcher as we can source just about anything.

Already counting down the days until Christmas? ( It’s a bit too soon!) We take turkey and other festive orders from the 1st of November.

Don’t forget to order your cheese and deli goods at the same time.

We can make up hampers as gifts for foodie family and friends or we also have Robson’s Gift Vouchers.

Hampers and Gift Vouchers

Our Hampers can be made up to suit any budget and taste or simply buy one of our Robson’s Gift Vouchers – a great present for a foodie or someone who loves to cook and these start from £5.

Deadline for orders: 15 December
(if you miss the deadline, we will of course try to help you, but choice does become more limited closer to the Holiday, particularly with regard to sizes).

You can also place orders for your New Years parties before Christmas.

We are a traditional butchery and use whole sides of beef, lamb and pork so that we can provide you with any cut you prefer. If you’re not sure what to cook for centrepiece or sides, need some advice, or are working to a budget, just give us a call – we’d love to help.

Seasons Greetings!

Butchers like to boogie.

I couldn’t resist posting this! We have had it on  facebook for a while and I am still laughing at Scott.

The Grouse are in!

It seems strange to be thinking of game with the weather being what it is at the moment, but the season has started and grouse are now available to order.

Pheasant will follow soon and the scrumptious Vacherin Mont d’Or cheese will be available again from mid September.

Follow us on twitter @RobsonsButchers or like our Facebook page for updates.

 

Boerewors for your Braai!

Boerewors for your Braai!

With the weather looking like it’s going to be a bit better this week, get the barbecue out and try our traditional South African sausage – Boerewors. This succulent barbecue speciality has a coarse texture and is made with a mixture of pork, beef and our unique spice mix.

Also in  stock:  All Gold tomato sauce, Mrs Ball’s chutney and  Ouma rusks.

We have a wide range of barbecue packs made up for you to choose from or ask one of the butchers and we can tailor them to your needs.

Bring on Summer!
