National Butchers' Week

Now in it's sixth year, National Butchers' Week will run from 4th-10th March in 2013. The objective of the week is to encourage consumers to consider the local butcher as their first port of call for all of their meat purchases and to use the butcher’s in-depth knowledge on everything from cooking times, to cuts and menu suggestions to improve their own understanding and expand their repertoire of meats and dishes.

The week is designed to encourage consumers who haven’t stepped over the threshold of a butcher’s shop in some time, to make that step and revel in a level of personal service rarely found in today’s world of multiple operators and blandness.
