Higgins Butchers was established in 1880. Since day one, we’ve always been dedicated to exceeding our customers’ expectations. While old fashioned customer service is at our core, it’s the innovative and state-of-the-art processes we adopt that have allowed us to provide a premium quality produce for over 120 years.
Before our meat even arrives in store, our highly-experienced butchers work side by side with our select purveyors. This allows them to ensure that the quality of meats is pristine year-round. We source from small farms around Ireland to bring your limited amounts of special cuts that are not found anywhere else.
When they receive their weekly orders, each butcher hand-selects every individual piece, to ensure that only the highest quality cuts are used. The meats are then tagged with the date and weight and placed into our aging rooms, where the magic begins.
In our dry-aging room, the natural enzymes break down the fibres and connective tissues while evaporating most of the water weight. What’s left behind is a beautiful, bright cherry-red steak that’s ready for grilling. This process also brings a delicious flavour and texture to your meat, creating an impeccably crafted product.
