MIDLANDS WILD MEAT, DERBY

Midlands Wild Meat is the latest addition to our Wildlife management company Littleover Forestry Limited. Because wildlife conservation sometime involves grown up decisions and we have to acknowledge that many of our countries large wildlife species need managing. This sometimes means that as all the apex predators in the UK have become extinct, we must take responsibility to ensure the protection of natural habitat and the environment.

We pride ourselves on the levels of expertise and the qualifications our team hold. Each member has several Environmental and Deer Management qualifications and as well as being pretty good butchers they are all expert marksmen as well. Because of the level of expertise, we even offer a humane animal management service, free of charge to local constabularies & veterinary practices including darting and sedation.

Here at our butchery in Derby we are passionate about traceability from field to fork. We are already certified by the Organic Food Federation and in early 2022 we will gain full SALSA Accreditation. This isn’t just about the quality of butchery but also means that our hygiene standards, our record keeping regarding traceability, staff training, monitoring of equipment and regular proving of competence of our marksmen.

We always endeavour to have a range of venison from four of the six different UK deer species, Muntjac, Roe, Fallow and Red. We also have Wild Boar and when in season Pheasants and Partridge (either in feather or oven ready for the same price). We are proud to butcher to traditional English Cuts, so loins not American back straps. Haunches, as opposed to round cuts, as well as all the standard cuts and joints.

We are also happy to butcher to your requirements if you have specific request such as a Full or Half Saddle on the bone, traditional or French Dressed. If you don’t see what you would like please ask us, we are only too pleased to help. We are also happy to take larger orders for supply of a fully butchered half or full carcass, ready vac packed for home freezing and at great prices.

If you are not sure how much or what cut would suit you best, or even how to cook your joint to get the very best from it, take a look on our contact page and speak to one of our team.
