Product description
Native Breed Mutton Box - A celebration of hill-bred flavour
The Native Breed Mutton Box is a celebration of Swaledale, Lonk and Dalesbred sheep - hardy, native breeds of hill sheep that thrive in the wild, rugged landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales. These traditional British breeds are known for their depth of flavour and character, making them the ideal choice for proper, slow-cooked mutton dishes.
Our heritage breed mutton comes from ewes aged over two years, raised entirely outdoors on a natural diet of grasses, herbs and heather. This slow-grown approach results in richly flavoured, deeply satisfying meat - perfect for long, gentle cooking. Whether you’re preparing a tagine, curry, or a shoulder of mutton recipe with bitter herbs and honey glaze, the flavour speaks for itself.
This box is ideal for those looking to buy mutton online for hearty, seasonal meals - from tandoori-marinated chops to classic British stews and roasts.
