Superb quality - ordered the family BBQ box. Very tasty burgers, chicken, sausages and rump steak. Very efficient delivery through DPD. Will use again.
Fantastic service..excellently packaged..arrived when it was supposed too..best of all the lamb shanks I ordered tasted phenomenal..also the blackcurrant vingar wow..one small issue that could have been a bigger issue if I hadn't noticed before they thawed the beef stock was leaking 2 out of the 3 bags I'd ordered had holes in them...apart from that top quality 😀
Bought one of their cheese and charcuterie hampers as a birthday gift for my father. Everything was delicious - quality and value. Highly recommended.
Brilliant top quality meat at reasonable prices delivered quickly and tracked. Ordered on Monday and delivered well packaged in ice packs on Wednesday (today) that's from Dorset to portsmouth. Thank you dorset meat company was a pleasure and will definitely be coming back in future orders.
I have been buying your meat for a little while now which has been great. The beef and pork are great. Unfortunately, since my first order of the chicken strips they have deteriorated in quality. the last ones I ordered (2 packs), are hard tough and tasteless. I have tenderised them but to no affect. The previous chicken smelt like wonderful fresh well bred chicken. This does not. Sadly I am giving the rest to my dog.
Rebuilding the food system, from the farm up

I’ve used Dorset Meat company for around four years and the quality of the meat they supply is, simply, outstanding. The order arrives well chilled, whether it’s hot or cold, there are always ice packs within the foil bag holding the meat. Despatch is prompt with DOD providing reliable next day service and it’s free for orders over a reasonable amount. All meats are vacuum sealed and well labelled, so ideal for immediate freezing or keep in the fridge until ready. Their service is second to none; personal via a phone call if, exceptionally they have to offer a substitute. And the meat tastes the way meat used to taste. Great flavour, appropriate fat content and it cooks to perfection. I have no hesitation in recommending this supplier for all your needs. Just look at these bangers; meaty, well seasoned and they’re not floating in fat during cooking. Superb.
We got delivered our grass fed meat pack Friday, all packed inside a box with cool packs. The beef burgers we ate last night were delicious. They tasted so much better compared to normal supermarket burgers. It was good to have meat that had flavour. We can highly recommend this company.
I recently ordered from The Dorset Meat Company, and I’m genuinely impressed – this is some of the best meat I’ve ever had delivered to my door. The cuts are outstanding: grass-fed, outdoor-reared beef, lamb, pork, and more, all with incredible flavour, tenderness, and that rich, natural taste you just don’t get from supermarket options. Everything was beautifully marbled, fresh, and clearly sourced from small, ethical Dorset and Wiltshire farms. Cooking with it felt like a real treat – steaks grilled perfectly, roasts full of depth, and even the simpler cuts were miles ahead. What really stood out was how meticulously they handle the cold chain. The packaging was top-notch – insulated boxes, plenty of ice packs, everything arrived perfectly chilled and in pristine condition, no thawing or compromise on freshness at all. It shows real care and professionalism in delivery, which gives total peace of mind when buying premium meat online. I’m already hooked and planning my next order – this will definitely become a regular thing for me. If you’re after high-quality, sustainable, grass-fed meat with reliable nationwide delivery, look no further. The Dorset Meat Company delivers on every level. Highly recommend – can’t wait for more! 🥩✨
