Tasty artisan meats: Value Plus Meats
From paddock to plate, grass-fed, ethically produced and processed by on-site butchers – top quality meat does not get better than this.
You would expect to pay a premium for such artisan products, however the meat from Glendhu Farm in North Canterbury comes direct to you at affordable prices as there’s no middleman involved.
At both its stores on Dyers Road in Bromley and Blenheim Road in Sockburn, Value Plus Meats has a truly amazing selection of every cut of meat you can imagine – and then some.
Beautiful fillets of beef, rib-eye and rump steak rub shoulders with butterflied lamb, leg roasts and lamb racks. If the cut you are looking for is not in the cabinets, the on-site butchers will cut it for you. The staff say that the full-flavoured beef mince produced here is the best in town. Indeed when the business started some three years ago, the founder was very hands-on making the mince himself.
Of course, chicken and pork are sold there also, sourced from other local Canterbury farms that follow the same ethical production methods as Glendhu. The chicken, for instance, is antibiotic-free and not hormone-fed. Raw pet food, especially for dogs, is made on-site as well, from the off-cuts of fresh meat. No supplements are added, just vegetables.
