i have used both, -  in my  opinion, i prefer meat from judds, savannah iso k  for summer barbeque cuts, but  judds is just great quality and good service all year round...

Rob and andrew  are happy to prepare what you need ... they get my vote...

I've taken delivery of my 9Kg Narragensett, It will be fabulous, especially as I'm brining it and then cooking it myself.

I'm going to wash it down with a superb 2009 Dom Perignon which I'm sure will also be pretty fabulous.

Sounds fab, MV Owner.

My final choice from all the assembled turkeys was actually not turkey at all, but 2 large guinea fowl. I don't really like turkey but sometimes think I should cook it for everyone else. However, I eschewed the big birds this year and plumped for my own favourite fowl. I've already massaged them beneath the skin of the breast with a little mixture of softened butter, small slivers of cooked crispy bacon and grated lemon zest, and will serve with a redcurrant jelly and red wine jus, little pork, apricot and almond stuffing balls, sweet red cabbage, crisp roasties and my family's traditional recipe for buttered carrot and parsnip mix. My Irish granny's fab recipe sherry trifle (no fruit or jelly, of course, but as much sherry as the jammed madeira sponge slices will absorb, topped with home made set vanilla custard and toasted, flaked almonds, then single cream to serve) will follow.


Salivating already.

sounds pretty fabulous!!!!!  I would consider the 'Thomas Keller' method (ie cooked super high temp super fast) for the fowl, although perhaps not at Christmas.

Becks is super, but a nice Stella is just something else

I’m visualizing a whole steer on a spit, made from LEGO in the back garden. Merry Christmas to you and all.

It's a free country, adopt whatever PC stance you want. Just don't tell me which stance I should take just because it clashes with your opinion.
