The great taste® of Swaledale

The great taste® of Swaledale

Since 1994, the gold ⭐ ratings of the great taste® awards have become a reliable benchmark for food quality. Judged on texture, aroma, appearance and flavour, with no influence from branding or packaging, it’s a true celebration of taste.

Swaledale has received great taste® stars for a wide range of products, all brought together here in the great taste® Collection. These include traditional favourites like dry-cured bacon, Yorkshire Breakfast Chipolatas and Lamb Merguez Sausages, as well as exceptional roasting joints and steaks.

From our tender Fillet Steaks, perfect for quick pan-searing, to the deeply flavourful Rump Steaks that shine when cooked medium-rare or grilled, each cut offers something special. You’ll also find award-winning roasting joints like Rolled Sirloin of Beef Roast, Loin of Pork Roast, Beef Rump Roast and Half Leg of Lamb. And for something different, explore standout seasonal cuts such as Salt Beef, Lamb Ossobuco and our Festive Game Cocktail Sausages.

Every product in the collection is a mark of quality and proof that exceptional meat speaks for itself.

Then there’s the hugely versatile Fennel & Red Wine Sausages which are perfect in the smoker, on a pizza, in a ragù or a rustic soup. Our Jacob’s Ladder Beef Ribs are a favourite cut amongst the Swaledale team, they’re cut from the brisket and left on the bone, and have an incredible depth of flavour.

The Pork Shoulder Chop, the pork equivalent of a Cote de Boeuf, is juicy and delicious whether grilled or braised. Two larger cuts ideal for slow weekend cookery are Mutton Shoulder, perfect for gently roasting until meltingly tender, and Topside of Beef, a fully flavoured beef joint best served medium-rare. The additional fat provided by our heritage breeds of cattle is particularly advantageous as it produces a cut that is far superior to a commercial beef joint.
