“Enjoying the meat but being brutally honest the price isn’t that much cheaper than others I used and there is a lot of un trimmed fat that we cut off the time we throw that away weight to cost ratio your more expensive on non special offer deals”

“Ordered a tomahawk steak and some beef short ribs and a bone in combo. Amongst some other bits including a 4 pack of sirloins The tomahawk was like shoe leather so gave it to the dogs . The bone in combo was nice because I cooked it all night. The steaks were ok but after opening I left in the fridge for two days and they remaining 2 steaks were on the turn. I probably won’t buy again because of quality and freshness issues. But good delivery service.”

“My first order was great then I did a second order and ordered for a friend too the gammon said 800g min but it was only 629g and 920g which I wouldn’t mind if it was just for me because it balanced out but it says at least 800g on the packaging so don’t think I’ll order again because I don’t trust what will come”

“Your service is impeccable but the meat quality particularly the beef is not. It was like leather despite slow cooking for 6 hours and pressure cooking for 20 minutes. Sorry to say it went in the bin. Bacon is great but still to try the lamb which previously was good. The ribeye steaks from previous delivery again was like leather. The sausages are tasty but won't buy any beef products again.”

“Delivery and service 5star ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Product 3 ⭐ ⭐️⭐️ Ribeye not the best cuts really thin and we chucked the leg lamb away yesterday for Sunday lunch had horrible smell at first thought maybe the blood but during and after cooking it was not safe to eat. This my second order first was great second really let down. Going to have the pork tonight let hope it’s ok.”

“I first started using "The Fat Butcher" because of the price and speed at which I could get a large quantity of steaks for my money. And I have to say that the cuts are great and the meat is tasty and succulent. However they only issue I have now is the delivery time. When I first started it was next day or 2 day delivery. The last time I ordered it was 6 days before I could get the delivery. Which can be tricky for someone on the carnivore diet who's on a tight budget and buys for the month. But the meat seems good sourced from around the world apparently so depending where you want your meat from I suppose depends on if "The Fat Butchers" is alright for your needs. Not many places as cheap that's for sure.”

“I’ve been ordering from the fat butcher for about 6 months now and the meat had always been Awesome but this month I was disappointed in the rib eye steak which were very fatty and very small and the beef joints were fatty and had gristle running through them x 😞”

“Some meat good ..some of the fattier ones not so good. Sure they have changed the recipe for the sausages which is not so good. Excellent value though Would like to see calves liver more readily available and normal chops available all the time (not the minted grissley ones) used to get loyalty points too but that has gone sadly”
