The awards you have there are all correct which I would like to include. However, we have 4 more from 2022 as well as potentially a significant amount to come from this year’s competition. The four from this year are listed below:
- Meat management industry awards 2022 High Commended: Dry aged Cote de Boeuf (category best beef product)
- Meat management industry awards 2022 High Commended: Ye Old English Sausage (category Britain’s best sausage)
- Meat management industry awards 2022 High Commended: Speciality Cumberland Ring(category Britain’s best sausage)
- Meat management industry awards 2022 High Commended: Traditional Free Range Pork Sausage (category Britain’s best sausage)
It would be good to have these on the home page somewhere as a horizontal scrolling feature, to show the breadth of quality in our products but not take too much room or time.

In 2012 we entered our Honiton branch for the Butchers shop of the year award. We submitted a lengthy application and were delighted to get through to the final stages of the competition. The shop was visited by the judges who scrutinised all aspects of the business. Complete Meats made it to the final four butchers shops in the whole of the South (which included London). Shaun and shop manager Martin went along to the Awards dinner in London but sadly we were pipped to the post. |
