Why you will love our Old Cow - Beef Bourguignon Sausage...
Genuine British Old Cow from mature traditional-breed beef
Handmade on site
Limited Availability
Taking its cue from a proper beef bourguignon, this sausage is built around local Suffolk, pasture-fed beef, with pancetta added in for richness and depth. There’s also red wine which is also complimented by warming spices like mace and coriander, bringing that slow-cooked, savoury stew character into sausage form.
This is a comforting, full-bodied sausage with plenty of juiciness and a deep, rounded flavour. Think dark, winey richness rather than heat. Brilliant with mash and greens on a cold night, or simply grilled and eaten straight away, juices dripping, because some sausages don’t need much explanation - just get stuck in and enjoy them!
Our Old Cow is only available a handful of times a year. Make sure you're a member of our Good Meat Club to be the first to hear when our next Old Cow is ready to order.

Gerard's Suggestion
"Sometimes I can't wait, so I pop them in the oven to cook and have them in a baguette with some butter and Dijon mustard."
Want to know more?
Our Old Cow Beef is a product of both dedication and exceptional farming partnerships. It is sourced from one of two herds we work with specifically to produce this wonderful meat: traditional-breed Lincoln Reds from the Yard Hill herd at Iken, and Belted Galloways from the Carr Farm herd on the River Waveney. These grass-fed cattle live freely from 5-12 years on rich meadows and marshes. This extended grazing allows the cattle to develop extraordinary flavour, renowned for its richness and creamy marbling. We honour this unique beef by slow-hanging each carcass for 8-10 weeks, ensuring its impeccable quality and depth of flavour.
> Pan-fry, Quick & Easy, and BBQ
1. Heat a frying pan with some butter and a little oil until smoking hot.
2. Pop in the sausages and brown them off. You are not looking to cook them at this stage, just to caramelise them.
3. Set the sausages aside on a plate.
4. Fry off some finely chopped, onions, carrots, a crushed garlic clove, some fresh or dried herbs
5. Return sausages to the pan with some chicken or veg stock, pop the lid on and cook really gently until the sausages are cooked through.
The longer and lower the better. Perfect with mash!
