Belted Galloway Beef at O&T

This weekend we have another treat for all our beef fans with the return of the fabulous Belted Galloway.

We have sourced a beautiful specimen from our regular beef supplier David Charlesworth who rears his cattle on extensive grass pastures next to our farm near Calverhall.

The affectionately named 'Beltie' is one of the most visually distinctive breeds of cattle, its many merits lie not only in its unique appearance and good nature, but also in its hardiness and top quality beef.

Originating in the harsh upland climate of the Galloway hills in beautiful south west Scotland, the Beltie is well-equipped to thrive outdoors in any climate. This remarkable animal is slow to mature, which means its beef has a special flavour and texture which is the envy of many other breeds.

The cows live far longer than other cattle often well into their twenties, producing more calves and reducing replacement costs.

Simon and Jake have as usual been dry ageing this prime beef on the bone ready for sale this weekend, so why not drop on by and order yourself a succulent steak or a stunning joint to roast on Sunday.
