Meridian Meats was founded in 1997 to retail our own Longhorn Beef and the Lamb from our Rare Breed Ewes. We knew we were producing high quality products with superior eating qualities so believing that these did not deserve to be 'lost into the general market' we entered the world of direct marketing, selling packs of Longhorn Beef and either whole or half lambs for home freezing. This we have done very successfully ever since and we are renowned for the quality of the beef and lamb that we produce. This reputation led to many requests, from smaller households or those with limited freezer space, to purchase smaller quantities. In response we opened our
Farm Shop early in 2005. This was made possible with the help of generous part funding received from the
Lincolnshire Wolds Sustainable Development Fund.
Now with the opening of this
Online Shop we bring to you the opportunity of experiencing the delights that are on offer here at our Shop in the
Heart of the Lincolnshire Wolds. Our range is, on the whole, self explanatory however within our
Tastes of Lincolnshire section you will find a host of delicious locally produced
specialities, some of which are Home Produced whilst others are sourced from local speciality producers. Every item in this section is made here in Lincolnshire and many are exclusive to our County. Please take some time to browse through the different sections and ring us if you would like more information or some assistance when making your selection. If you are unable to contact us on 01507 533697, which is quite possible as there are plenty of jobs on the farm that have to be done, please try 01507 524272 (Jim at the Butchery) or alternatively you can email us at

Lincolnshire boasts some really wonderful speciality foods and here at
Meridian Meats we are particularly pleased to have been placed
Runners-Up in the Grower Retailer section of the
Tastes of Lincolnshire Awards 2005 and moreover delighted that our
Little London Cottages, were
Overall Winners in their section. Nothing less than the very best quality, natural foods are offered by
Meridian Meats; everything that we sell has been tried and tested by us and most items make regular appearances on our own dining table! We feel justifiably proud of the quality of produce we offer. Our succulent
Home Produced Longhorn Beef, our
Lamb, our own handmade
Sausages and Speciality pies all butchered and made by our son Jim as well as the locally sourced delicacies represent all that is best in
Regional Food.
Our aim is, quite simply, to provide an easy to use, reliable shopping service providing nothing but the finest quality of produce 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The pleasures of eating form such an important part of our lives, such moments deserve nothing short of the very best.
