Thanks! We are Grania and Simon Phillips. Together we have been rearing Red Ruby Devon beef on our farm in Colleton, North Devon for 15 years. Red Ruby Devon cattle are a native British beef breed. Distinguished by their gorgeous red colour, grazing herds are a wonderful and integral part of the Devon landscape. Cattle have been born and raised on
our farm since 1994. Red Ruby Devon Beef is arguably the best beef you can buy and is unmatched in flavour, texture and tenderness. The ratio of fat to meat is a key component in the flavour of beef. Unlike some breeds, the Red Ruby Devon naturally lays down intra-muscular fat in the meat which produces its trademark marbling and finer texture. Our cattle are grass fed ensuring the highest quality and taste is achieved. Our cattle are reared naturally on Devon grass, producing meat which is high in Omega 3 fatty acids, essential acids which are great for the brain. Our meat is hung for at least three weeks before distribution to customers, this reduces water content, gives the meat it’s darker colour and means the beef is extremely tender and flavoursome. We take great care of our animals and they are only sent to the abattoir when they are in peak condition. As our animals live a stress-free, relaxed, happy life this is reflected in the flavour of the meat. Our beef is of the highest quality; well marbled, fine grained and packed full of flavour.
