Our summer social this weekend had all the key ingredients - sun, sizzling BBQ and serious team spirit ☀️🔥

A perfect day to pause, unwind, and raise a glass to show our appreciation to our incredible team here at R&J Yorkshire’s Finest. Their dedication, passion and hard graft keep the show on the road all year round, and this was our moment to say a huge thank you.

We were joined by our amazing families for a day of fun in the sun — superb BBQ (naturally featuring Yorkshire’s Finest, expertly cooked by ), music, games, plenty of banter and Yorkshire humour at it’s best!

Ey Up! It’s Yorkshire Day and we couldn’t be prouder as fifth-generation farmers and butchers in the heart of God’s Own County.

Based here in the beautiful Dales, our cattle at Waterford Farm are raised slowly and naturally, benefiting from lush pasture grown on the nutrient-rich soil of our gently rolling hills.

At R&J Yorkshire’s Finest, we’re incredibly lucky to be at the heart of a county renowned for producing exceptional quality meat.

Over the past 40 years, we’ve built a cooperative of like-minded local farmers and suppliers across Yorkshire who continue to push the boundaries of excellence.

Wishing you all a Happy Yorkshire Day!

Thank you Julian Smith MP for raising this in Parliament today for us, it’s greatly appreciated. Recruitment is very tough for us as a rural, family business and not helped by those applying that have no intention of turning up to interviews, let alone fulfilling the jobs roles advertised.

When your order has that extra WOW factor 🤩

These exceptional fillet steaks are from our Signature Himalayan Salt- Aged beef range. Each steak is cut from the centre of the fillet and weighs exactly 6oz.

Our chef requested that we roll them to create the perfect cylinder shape — and we were happy to oblige.

Spring has sprung in the glorious Yorkshire Dales today. To mark the first official day of the season, we wanted to show you these beautiful Yorkshire Lamb Rumps before they head out of the despatch. 

This hugely popular cut is a staple on spring menus across the country. All of our Yorkshire Lamb is aged on the bone for 7-14 days to allow the delicate flavour and superior texture to develop. 

Yorkshire Lamb is among the best in the world, and we are so lucky to have incredible suppliers in our R&J Cooperative right here in Dales.

✔️Consistency
✔️No compromise

All you need is a little patience…

We don’t rush our Yorkshire pork loins. After 96 hours in the pork chiller, at precisely controlled temperatures, all excess moisture is removed, leaving fat and rind that is perfectly dry to the touch and meat with an incredible intense flavour.

These beautiful, succulent Yorkshire Pork Cutlets are the result, and we are delighted our chefs keep coming back for more.
