The journey toward the outstanding
premises he has today had truly started.
When Penistone Market closed, Brindon
still wanted to buy the best in quality live
meat, so he sourced a variety of breeds
and animals from local farmers which he
still does today. Traceability is even more
important today and you will always
know where your fine cuts of meat have
come from. Brindon’s family are farmers,
and he even has a small-holding with
sheep on, so he is fully aware of how
much work goes into rearing a quality
animal. Two things that really set Brindon
apart from many in his dealings with
farmers, is that he forges strong relation-
ships with farmers and is in a position to
influence the farmer in how the animals
are reared, which can have huge positive
benefits all round as the appearance,
texture and flavour of the meat is devel-
oped. What really impressed me was
that, as we know, meat prices fluctuate
quite heavily at times and we know all
too well that there are occasions when
farmers are forced to sell at a loss just to
generate cashflow. Well, Brindon has a
policy that he will never buy meat from
a farmer at less than cost and then when
times are good he hopes and knows that
they look after him with their pricing –
how good is that! If he can’t get what he
wants on his doorstep he will get it from
somewhere in Yorkshire. He dry cures

and ages all his meat in house for 21 days
before it goes for sale. All his butchers,
as does Brindon, make sure the very
best cuts of meat are made available to
customers.
Some examples of the quality
Brindon has: beef is specially reared
by two local farmers – Ken Tinker and
Richard Chippendale of Marsden.Ken
has supplied them since the shop first
opened. The cattle are predominantly
bred from an Angus cow and Limousine
bull. The Limousine provides excellent
conformation, and the Angus provides
the supreme marbling and fat cover that
is required for tasty and succulent beef.
Pork comes from a Colin Percy of York
who is also RSPA approved. Their pigs
are large White/Landrace/Durox cross,
specifically bred for outdoor rearing.
They have good fat cover and develop
a thicker skin due to the weather, which
makes the crackling delicious and the
meat extra juicy. Believe me, once you
taste outdoor reared pork you won’t visit
a supermarket again.
