Grass-fed butchers in Co. Cork

Cork has one of Ireland's richest food cultures — the English Market has been trading since 1788 and north Cork sits on the edge of the Golden Vale, Ireland's most fertile beef-producing belt. We're building our Cork listings. In the meantime, these butchers deliver across Ireland.

Cork's grass-fed beef tradition

North Cork and the Blackwater Valley are part of the Golden Vale — the limestone-rich grassland belt that runs across Tipperary and into Cork, producing some of the most consistent grass-fed beef in the country. The county also has a strong sheep-farming tradition in the uplands west of Macroom and in the Shehy Mountains near the Kerry border.

Cork city's English Market has maintained a tradition of independent meat traders since the eighteenth century. The county as a whole supports a significant artisan food sector, and several Cork butchers have built strong local reputations for sourcing grass-fed and dry-aged beef.

We're actively adding Cork butchers to the directory. If you're a Cork-based producer or butcher sourcing grass-fed beef, we'd like to list you.
