What makes us different at Urban Butcher is our commitment to sourcing premium, ethically raised meats from trusted, local farmers who prioritize animal welfare and sustainable farming practices. We connect our customers with a network of farmers who uphold the highest standards in raising and processing their animals, ensuring you’re getting the most nutritious and flavorful products on your table.
Ready to taste the difference? Here are five must-try products from Urban Butcher that you’ll never want to purchase anywhere else:
1. Whole Chicken
One of our personal favourites is the whole chickens from High River Chicken. Raised from hatch to harvest without hormones or steroids and given the freedom to roam, these birds deliver on exceptional flavour and texture. Prepare your next roast chicken meal with these whole chickens, and enjoy a standout meal.
Butcher’s tip: Cook the chicken breast down so that the thighs cook more evenly and the breasts absorb more of the delicious juices.
2. Farm Fresh Eggs
We can’t recommend Mann’s Eggs enough. With rich, golden yolks that are dense, flavorful and exceptionally fresh, these free-range eggs are as delicious as they are nutritious. From breakfast classics to baking masterpieces, you’ll notice the difference farm fresh eggs make in your culinary creations. Trust us, you’ll be hooked (we are).
3. Bacon
You haven’t truly experienced bacon until you’ve tried our bacon from Pioneer Meats. Thick-cut and meticulously smoked with hickory, this gluten-free bacon delivers a rich, smoky flavour in every bite. Whether you’re enjoying this perfectly crisped on it’s own or added to your favorite recipes, this bacon will make you wanting seconds (or thirds).
Cooking tip: Minimize clean-up and cook your bacon in an air-fryer at 400°F (200°C) for 8-10 minutes
