Why you will love our Diced Hogget...
- Pasture-fed for exceptional quality and taste
- 14-day aged for enhanced depth of flavour
- Perfect for Middle Eastern-style dishes
We produce our diced hogget using fairly lean muscles from the leg and shoulder which results in an excellent mixture of flavour and textures. The loose grained texture really does allow any marinade or curry flavouring to penetrate, making this mix perfect for Middle-Eastern cooking. It also works excellently in more traditional meals, such as stew or hotpot.
This excellent diced hogget comes from our exceptional, heritage breed sheep which are between 12-24 months old at slaughter and which have had the best part of two summers grazing on the wild flowers and grasses of this quiet corner of Suffolk. The extra grazing time on our rich and varied meadows really does give hogget the most excellent flavour, and unlike mutton it can be very tender, so doesn't always require such a low, long cook.
We always dry-hang our hogget for up to two weeks to further enhance the flavour and texture.

Gerard's Suggestion
"I love to use this in a Middle-Eastern tagine. Using hogget not lamb really does bring an extra depth of flavour. Equally good in a traditional stew or casserole."

Our hogget is sourced exclusively from local Suffolk farms that share our ethical and environmental values. We are proud to work with dedicated farmers such as Hugh Crossley at the Somerleyton Estate, Alan Peck at Erpingham, and John and Alice Pawsey at Shimpling Park Farm. These close relationships with trusted farmers allow us to uphold the highest standards, delivering hogget that is rich in flavour, tender, and sustainably produced.

Because we are a whole-carcass butchery our pasture-fed hoggets arrive whole, so we butcher on site after dry-aging. We like to hang our hogget for a minimum of 10-14 days to make the most of this tender and flavourful meat.
On occasions during the year, we are delighted to offer Organic Hogget from Shimpling Park, near Lavenham. Since converting to organic farming in 1999, Shimpling Park has flourished, nurturing its pastures without artificial chemicals. We highly recommend trying this wonderful organic hogget when it's available, simply select 'Shimpling Park Organic' from the dropdown above.
