Mutton Cutlets are full of flavour; a little more delicate than the loin chops. Perfect for eating with fingers!
Our heritage breed mutton comes from lamb that is at least 2 years old at slaughter (sometimes up to 7 years). It is generally darker in colour than lamb and hogget, with a rich, robust flavour thanks to a combination of age and those extra years grazing on the varied meadow and pasture of this corner of Suffolk
We hang our mutton for around 2-3 weeks to improve the flavour and tenderness of the meat. We cut these cutlets from the best end of neck (from the ribs nearer the head). They are then expertly trimmed and ready for the pan or BBQ. They're best cooked medium or medium-rare for a succulent, juicy finish. You'll find them full of flavour, and they'll also take a long overnight marinade in some delicious Middle-Eastern or Mediterranean herbs and spices.

Gerard's Suggestion
Our mutton is a true celebration of tradition and quality, sourced exclusively from local, small-scale producers who share our passion for ethical and environmentally conscious farming. Each animal is pasture-raised for several years, grazing on a natural diet of wild herbs and mixed grasses, which gives the meat its distinctive, rich flavour. We’re proud to work with exceptional farmers like Hugh Crossley at the Somerleyton Estate near Lowestoft, Alan Peck in Erpingham, and John and Alice Pawsey at Shimpling Park Farm. We take the time to hang the carcasses for around 30 days, sometimes longer, to get the best out of this wonderful meat.
> Pan-fry, BBQ, and Quick & Easy
1. Mutton cutlets are best cooked hot and relatively fast so that they are finished to medium/medium rare.
2. Remember to sear the fat too!
3. Leave to rest before devouring! (the cutlets, not you)
