“In spite of delivery problems I keep ordering from you because I want to support British ethical farming and decent animal husbandry. The quality of any of your products is superb.
Finally the overpopulations of deer has made the headlines and I wish more people would discover and enjoy the benefits of venison - low cholesterol, low fat, high protein at a reasonable price. Culled deer should not go to waste!”
“I haven't yet had the meat received but the packaging and prompt delivery was excellent. However I was quite disappointed at the size of the birds. I have had partridge before and although one is usually enough for one person I feel in this instance two will be needed.”
Pleased that you thought the delivery and packaging were excellent. As mentioned in response to the product review, partridges don't vary much in size. The product description says they weigh approx 275g so if they weighed less, please let us know (an image of the product on a scale would be fine).
In the product review of the fillet steaks, you were disappointed by the size of the steaks and the leakage of some blood from the packaging.
The size of the steaks were described as 150g each, so if they were smaller than that please let us know. Apologies that some blood had leaked from the pack but it should not have affected the flavour.
“Wild meat company rewarded me for helping them out with a delivery. I read up on them and it’s totally changed my thinking on animal welfare and eating meat. Just completed a rabbit stew and took me back to my childhood. It was tender and soft. Will order more. Thanks again”
“Efficient service - delivery arrived on specified date/time. Regularly use this company to ensure we get locally sourced high quality meat. Many thanks.”
“Have ordered three times now as meat has been as described and fully up to expectations! Delicious when cooked from partridge, pheasants, duck, wood pigeons, wild boar, venison steaks and diced for stew. Like stocking up for when game not in season! Have venison ready for casserole when my granddaughter visoits from Australia with her Australian boyfriend! Ell done!”
“The meat and packaging is consistently excellent. I have never been disappointed. My only complaint is with the courier service. I understand that drivers are always in a hurry, but the DHL practice - seemingly only in relation to the Wild Meat Company - of just leaving boxes on doorsteps, a few feet from the street, not checking anybody is in, is a significant security worry where I live in inner city London, particularly given the often very expensive content of the Wild Meat Company boxes. I would be happy to pay a little more for delivery for the peace of mind of knowing that the driver will wait at the door until I take the parcel from them, like other couriers, rather than just leaving boxes at risk of being stolen by a passerby or, given the chilled content, warming unnecessarily because you are unaware it has arrived.”
“I recently ordered several packs of Woodpigeon Breasts and two Woodcock in feather. I have been using The Wild Meat Co for some years now and have always been delighted with the products, whether game birds or the whole carcass Muntjac I buy once a year. I always have the pigeon in my freezer as well. This time was no exception. All was beautifully fresh and in exceptional condition, arrived on the day requested, and nicely chilled. I have cooked some of the pigeon, and one of the Woodcock already and it was quite honestly superb. I have been eating game for more than half a century and know quality when I taste it. I am aware of the cautions issued by The Wild Meat Co regarding buying birds in feather, but these were magnificent, and I cooked one of them rare with a sauce made from the trail and internal organs - quite delicious. I have frozen the other one and look forward to having it later in the year. Woodcock was one of the game birds I had never tasted before, but I will definitely buy again. Thank you for your superb service and superb meat.”
“Fabulous quality meat that arrived in great condition in chilled packaging. It is the first time that I’ve purchased meat via mail order so I was happy that it was such a simple transaction.
Good to see a range of produce that is not readily available.
I shall be a repeat customer.”
“It’s the first time I’ve ordered from the Wild Meat Company. The delivery arrived on time and it was carefully packed with ice packs keeping it cold. The meat is really excellent quality. I’ve made a rabbit casserole and intend to make a curry. I haven’t tried the pheasant yet but it’s fresh and looks delicious. I will definitely be buying again”
