This is the best meat on the planet, the steaks and joints of beef are just perfect and the service given by Polly is fantastic ! Hope you WIN, you deserve it !

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!!!!

the only place to get our beef from, we don't even entertain the idea of getting it elsewhere! Polly is fantastic & really knows her stuff...definitely this years Food Hero!

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

I have been eating beef from the Fine Beef Co for some time now. Popping to see Polly for Beef is not a short trip, there is the customary 30 minute update on the welfare of the animals, trips to see calves, discussions on the relative merits of the taste of individual animals and generally the state of small scale farming. This is a pleasure, the meat is fantastic and the enthusiasm and love for the product is infectious. There really is no way you get a better product from a nicer set of people. Give them a go. I hav had a magnificent jacobs ladder, a wing rib of beef which words can't do justice to and steaks of all sorts and sizes each a joy and my kids love the mince as it actually tastes of something.

The Fine Beef Company has to be everyone 'local hero'. They do everything we believe in so strongly as a family, if it wasnt for people like Polly, we would all be eating supermarket rubbish. We all admire you Polly, well done on getting this far, we are all sure you will win!See you on friday as usual.

Polly does a fantastic job. Her beef is in a word 'spectacular'. No doubt that she deserves the award. Good luck

Having been a vegetarian for many years I was a little nervous venturing back into the meat world. Polly's beef is the only meat I will eat, I can see where the animals are raised, what they are fed on and how they are nurtured first hand which has changed the way I feel about beef production, do you know how hard that woman works?!! She is an absolute star and deserves this award more than anyone else. Thank you so much Polly and good luck, your passion and love for your herd shine through.

Absolutely fantastic beef and Polly is delightful and so helpful. Which reminds me - I must order some more!

Polly is always a peasure to deal with, willing to show you around and her love of what she does shines through.

Absolutly first class customer service, Polly is so knowledgable and charming. Her enthusiasm for her herd and getting all of us lot eating great beef is inspiring! Keep up the excellent work, you deserve this

The best and tastiest burgers Ive ever tasted. Very good value for money and I will definitely be back for more.

My family and I adore steaks and burgers from The Fine Beef Co. Not only do they taste fantastic, we like to know we're eating 'happy meat'. Having seen how Polly cares for her herds, we know they've had a wonderful, natural life. Polly works extremely hard and really deserves this award.

Without a doubt the best beef I have EVER tasted and the customer service is out of this world, it doesnt get much better so simply has to be the winner!

I've been buying meat from The Fine Beef Company for over a year now and it's truly fine. You know how supermarket meat often has a metallic taste (fresh blood, yuk!)? What you get with Polly's beef is this incredible rich, almost gamey taste and texture. It's honestly the best beef I've ever had - and it's no more expensive than buying from a good butcher.

i NORMALLY have an intollerance to beef, so when Pollly told me about her beef i was a tad nervous about trying it, as you'd imagine. well, the taste was amazing..and the after effects? well, just a very content customer, with no ill effects whatsoever!!! our favourite products...apart from a dexter steak, has to be the beef burgers....absolutely heaven in a bun!!!!!

A chance local find - Polly rears Dexter and Longhorn beef with huge passion. They are (very well) hung slaughtered and butchered locally. Polly never tires of finding great ideas and evangelising about the less well known cuts (ever tried feather as a steak - wow!!!!) I could go on and on - a real star who loves to get her customers to meet the meat.
