Steaks All our beef is locally reared from the Red Poll, the herd originated from breeding of the Norfolk Red and the Suffolk Dun. Much of the flavour of the beef comes from the fat, which is well marbled and yellowish in colour, indicating a grass - fed animal. The meat is fine grained and full red in colour All steaks are served from the grill with baked tomato, mushrooms & French fried onion rings |
