On the rare occasion I buy from the supermarket, I always lift the packet to check the colour underneath - the amount of time it has a grey appearance makes me promptly put it down!Dchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02490191919855219024noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339317216265636215.post-1421545840414881792012-01-13T19:52:13.627+00:002012-01-13T19:52:13.627+00:00We use our local butcher too.

The quality is second to none and I dont think its so much cheaper to get from the supermarket.I got 1lb minced beef, 1lb stewing beef,1lb bacon, 8 tomato and beef sausages,2 chicken breasts,1 steak pie and a bottle of orange juice for £15. This is more than a weeks worth of meat for us and some will end up in the freezer.His meat is just so tasty and we dont have lots per meal but have it with lots of veg and potatoes to eke it out anyway.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00462752559193522943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339317216265636215.post-48631281067952843112012-01-13T13:17:03.232+00:002012-01-13T13:17:03.232+00:00I use my butcher too.

I tend to bulk buy at the market once every 8 weeks or so and pop things into the freezer. I do exactly the same with sausages- we have cut right back on our meat consumption , and prefer to bulk a small amount out with veg.Scarlethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01729719876504930455noreply@blogger.com
