Local butcher
Just so you all know I have Butcher Jacks as my local butcher and John is in Wairau Valley.
I get fabulously good meats - especially good offal for my doggo that I can't get from Countdown Online (bless them).
John delivers and I even get beef bones for said dog.
I can also get eggs and even sauces. Don't neglect your local butcher. My mother's second hubby was a butcher and boy could he cook tripe and dumplings! Don't neglect your local butcher.
I have no incentive to promote my local butcher other than to say they can give us stuff the supermarkets don't.
