Ok...will take a look at their site, now we have some room in the freezers I think we'll visit them next week for some ribs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brinkman Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 My last pork butt was from 'Hook & Block' Not had any issues with their meat and price wise it was fair and delivery prompt, well I thought so. Just recently smoked some of their pork ribs, again very good and have a medium brisket and a leg of lamb sitting in the freezer also from them. If I want better quality, is it though? I tend to buy from 'Turner & George' at Smithfield! Again never had any issues with them and they tend to be able to supply TriTip! even if it is a little on the mean size, 14oz What is the equivalent to tri-tip in the UK? Any butchers out there tell me? I've a feeling we sell it as steaks of some kind! Maybe thats why some steaks tend to be tough? Profit over quality!

Wade Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 The Tritip is part of the bottom sirloin and it is leaner than the brisket. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brinkman Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 ?Terrific. Confirms what I thought was the case, tends to be cut and sold as steaks. All I need to do now is convince my supplier to sell it to me as a big joint and not a 14oz steak! Though less profit in it for him I imagine so it wont be easy. Thanks for the info.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
