Apparently you can't say that. My post about testosterone was removed, despite him failing a test about test/epitest ratios.

Actually I probably shouldn't have said that either Grin

Do you know which stall? I might try some if I am in London.


I can't say which stall as I don't know, but you can contact the ones on that list.
If you're in London, give me a shout as I might have some squirrel or wood pigeon that you'd enjoy. Locally sourced Wink

A rabbit could only set you back £3 or so, depending on where you get them from. London butchers tend to charge £5 in poncy areas.

I did get a whole bunch of exotic meats (zebra included) for £20, plus £8 postage. Christmas pressie from the gf. 2 kangaroo steaks, 2 zebra burgers, 2 kudu burgers, 2 something else burgers, 6 springbok sausages and 4 oversized wild boar and apple sausages. Not the most economical of foods, but certainly not grossly overpriced. www.alternativemeats.co.uk
They may have access to horse, their customer service is excellent so worth phoning.

Tell you what though!
last month my mum bought a whole lamb at butchers, worked out at £3.99/kg- left the legs and back as was, got them to make the shoulder in to cubes and mince the rest. Thats value!


When I was a kid my mother would always buy pig and lamb a half-beast at a time - as you say, some jointed, some taken further (though not minced as we had or own mincing machine for that). Big chest freezer always full of meat.

Did she get the offal too? Some great eating inside a lamb.

I dont know much about meat but would of thought an athletic horse would produce better quality meat than a lazy cow which hardly moves around.

Not necessarily, as the more expensive beef is often the stuff with the fat marbled through it, so is often more tender.

If lean meat is what you are after then yes, the horse is probably leaner in general.

It depends whether you term quality to be about taste/tenderness or leanness.

I like horse meat, it is excellent. It is an enjoyable alternative to beef, not better, not worse

They sell meat trimmings that are marketed as "pet food" at £1.25/kg can't be any worse than the stuff the put in burgers etc can it (luxury horse-meat burgers notwithstanding)?

Yeah you can get fillet and it is the most lean and tender cut.
