I can see your point grisell, but the price seems excessive when other quality butchers are selling them at £1.87 per kg. Now, it's not for me to say where another member should buy his meat, and there's no doubt that Donald Russell sell excellent meat - but you can't help but wonder whether their prices say more about them being "by appointment to the Queen" than about the actual value of the meat.
Take another couple of examples, their oxtail is £15.56 per kg, it's £4.67 here. Their ox liver £7.81 as against £1.06. Phew, that's a massive difference.
Richie - I'm not having a dig at you - where you buy your meat is none of my concern, I just wanted to point out that cheaper alternatives are available. Don't Ox cheeks just make the best gravy ever? Mmm...
