Description
Specialising in local pedigree beef, this Buckhinghamshire based delicatessen also offers a home delivery service for those not lucky enough to live close by. The herd is reared in the village, fed on a diet free from chemicals, and allowed to roam freely in the summer months. Cattle are slaughtered at a local abattoir, then hung on the bone for 30 to 55 days, although less time can be requested if preferred. There are five traditional pedigree breeds on the farm, including Dexter, Old English Longhorn, White Park and Aberdeen Angus. Choose from one of the wide range of traditional English cuts, or their many flavours of rare breed beef burgers on offer.

Polly's beef is simply the best! We have treated ourselves to fillet and rib roasts for special occasions and recently purchased some Dexter rump steaks to bar-b-que. They were unbelievably tender, the "don't need a knife to cut" texture of a fillet but with the amazing flavour of the rump. Polly works tirelessly to look after her herd with the highest standards and the same care is given to her customers. She is a very special young lady and a true food hero.

Polly loves and takes great care of her cows. She also treats the meat with great respect by hanging it long enough to make it the most delicious beef I have every tasted. In every way The Fine Beef Company delivers an outstanding product....Polly, you deserve to win.

Fantastic set up, really good quality tender beef and Polly is really friendly and helpful. Best fillet steak we have tasted anywhere. We add a little cream, cava and mustard to make a sauce and is better than you can get in any restaurant. Polly deserves this award.

With two young children (2 and 7) i can not say more than this is the meat I always chose to feed my kids. My 7 year old has always refused burgers but will eat "Polly burgers" and has told her friends mum that the spaghetti bolognese she had for tea was nice but "it wasn't Polly's mince was it because it didn't taste as good as Polly's" - that mum has now discovered The Fine Beef Company too !!!! The Fine Beef Company are a true local food hero.... we love The Fine Beef Company!!!!

Without doubt the best steak I have ever had the pleasure to eat. The quality is second to none.

What a company, the tastiest beef I have ever had, but what I love the best is being able to experiment with all those strange and wonderful cuts Polly has! What an absolute delight - she has to win hands down! PS. you have to try her 8 week hung beef...awesome

What makes this place so special is the "complete product", including the personal sales and service. I paid a visit to Polly at the Fine Beef Company before Christmas, looking for a wing/sirloin rib joint for our Christmas dinner. I'd seen her recommended on the UKTV Food website. I took home a beautiful well-hung 2-rib 3Kg joint for our family of four (with me and my son being particularly good eaters!) The joint had a decent layer of fat and had been chined - It was sheer perfection!! I am now a convert to the Fine Beef Company. I gave the joint a coating of freshly made Colemans mustard, followed bya sprinkling of flour. Laid it on two onion halves and a halved head of garlic (ribs down). In to the oven for 20mins at Fan 200C. Turned the heat down to Fan 175C and waited for the internal temperature to register 155F (on an American wireless thermometer from Weber) having basted two or three times. The joint was then removed from the oven and rested for 45 minutes under a foil tent on a pre-heated carving dish. The gravy made using half a glass of good Italian red wine and a little cornflower and vegetable water was superb. The beef carved really well and the taste was probably the best we've ever had, with a meltingly tender texture. The whole experience from reading about thye Fine Beef Company, to getting directions and walking on the farm, to having a joint selected by Polly (who appeared to know every joint, let alone every animal) to cooking and eating Fine Beef Company beef - was a sheer joy. Highly recommended
