Thornhill Farm's award winning Dexter beef from York main features
Accommodation details
Just as apples all have different flavours, so too does the beef from different breeds of cattle.
Dexter Beef has a reputation for being rich in flavour, well-marbled and succulent. So many of my older customers will remark that it is like beef from their childhood, with a really satisfying beefy flavour!
All the herd is reared naturally and graze clover-rich pastures, supplemented by hay and haylage in the winter months . There is evidence that beef from grass-fed animals is higher in Omega 3 and lower in saturated fats.
Our herd was featured in Rick Stein's "Guide to Food Heroes of Britain"
We use a local Yorkshire village abattoir and a nearby local butcher (T.S. Hartley & sons) who hang the beef for 3 weeks before expertly butchering and vacuum-packing the beef.
Food miles are kept to a minimum, quality of the beef to a maximum!
We offer free local delivery, mail order or why not visit the farm.
