Sourced from the Fountains Abbey Studley Royal estate, just a few miles from our Ripon office, this cut of wild venison comes from the haunch of the deer, showcasing the rich, gamey flavour and lean texture of our wild venison, making them perfect for special occasions and dinner parties. Sourced exclusively from wild parkland deer in Yorkshire, this cut reflects the quality of our wild venison, these steaks are ideal for marinating, and makes for hearty and wholesome dishes. NOTE: May Contain Shot
Perfect for seasonal treats or special occasions, the haunch steak is best served by frying on a high heat for four to five minutes for a medium rare finish. Serve alongside sauteed potatoes, watercress salad, crab apple jelly, and a glass of red wine. A must for the connoisseur, with the robust character and the lean texture making it an ideal introduction to our wild game.
About the cut
These generous steaks of venison haunch are cut from the rear of the animal, where the most meat is to be had. The meat here is typically lean and tender, and the haunch steaks are cut across the grain so that the dense lean tissue breaks down upon slow cooking to offer melting tenderness in the pot. Sourced from wild venison, availability depends on the quality of the venison brought to the block, and on the hunting season.
About the breed
We'll choose from our selection of available breeds
It's good to enjoy venison, with its supremely healthy meat and lean quality, and we source ours from areas where deer management is crucial. Experts estimate there have never been so many deer in the UK, and with an absence of natural predators their sheer numbers threaten to overwhelm natural ecosystems. We source our wild venison from The Duke of Argyll Estate in Scotland and the Fountains Abbey Estate, which is just up the road from us in Ripon, North Yorkshire. The Duke of Argyll Estate is one of the wildest and romantic areas of the British Isles, while the Fountains Abbey Estate supplies us with wild parkland venison as their rangers need to control the numbers carefully. We typically stock Red deer, but occasionally receive Sika and Fallow deer.
