    Big Joints for the Barbecue

    Eating outdoors with friends and family is one of the greatest pleasures of summer, as far as we’re concerned. That said, it can sometimes be hard to know what to cook to feed a crowd, especially when the guest-list keeps growing – much as we love eating them, the thought of flipping burgers and sausages for hours soon has us looking for more practical alternatives! Happily, we know just where to find them; the Butchers counter here at Greendale Farm Shop offers several options when it comes to larger, great-value cuts that will satisfy even the hungriest guests. Best of all, they’re all pretty hands-off when it comes to cooking, so you can get on with the important business of relaxing and enjoying yourself!

    BBQ Pork, Lamb & Chicken ideas

    Here at Greendale Farm Shop, we offer a great selection of beef, pork, lamb and poultry – and, with BBQ season in full swing, we’re busier than ever! As usual, our hand-made sausages and beefburgers are flying off the shelves, and while they are undeniably delicious, we thought it might be fun to highlight a few alternatives for anyone who feels like trying something different the next time they light the grill. So, with this in mind, we asked our butchers to come up with some fresh BBQ ideas, with the proviso that everything must be as simple to cook as a burger or banger, and just as crowd-pleasing!
