The Dorset Meat Co. Opiniones 

Amazing quality meat non halal perfect for us.

Excellent quality meat, really tender!

Ordered Turkey, Gammon, plus various other meats for Christmas - all really good quality and fully flavoured.

I’ve had 2 deliveries from the Dorset meat company so far. The delivery has been spot-on. The meat has been spot-on. I originally started using this company because I don’t advocate the use of religious slaughter. This company deals with farms that use small abattoirs, using traditional methods, so that the animals aren’t stressed. Yes, they may be slightly dearer than supermarket prices but the quality is excellent, you can certainly taste the difference.

It doesn’t matter how good the meat is if it isn't delivered on time. Reliability is everything with food delivery, and this service failed. I ordered a brisket with priority delivery a full week in advance to ensure I had two days for prep work. However, it failed to arrive on Friday and Saturday, putting my Sunday event at risk. DPD now shows a Monday delivery. Luckily, I found a replacement locally to save the day, but I won’t be using this 'online service' again. You’ve lost a customer

When I phoned order in the lady was so helpful. Order arrived on time, meat was delicious and we were updated all the way. Will definitely use this Christmas.

Preordered 2kg pork loin and 400gms chicken breasts in September for delivery 24th December - paid in full. Pork arrived well-packaged and cooled on the 24th but no chicken breasts! To be fair, my email asking for an explanation was replied to straight away, but the explanation was a little lacking - apparently they are not made aware in advance of any shortfalls in their orders by the packers - incredible! Made my Xmas Eve, as a disabled non-driver, a lot more exciting and expensive as I booked a taxi and battled the throngs in Sainsbury - where I will get my meat in future, there being no shortage of chicken breasts there! Poor customer service and won't be back. **Forgot to mention full refund arrived promptly but would rather have received my chicken**

delivered on time and in pristine condition well wrapped and chilled

Pre-ordered Christmas Turkey and Ham on the 16th September for a delivery 22nd December. Delivered by DPD as promised, minus the Ham!!

The box contained a note saying sorry we ran out!!

How about guarantee early orders the items purchased, or at least email me to say it won’t be delivered so I can make alternative arrangement so close to Christmas. Won’t be using them again!

We ordered a fair amount from them for the Xmas period. All the fresh meat was great quality and went down really well. The only issue we had was with the ready made 600g beef wellington we bought. Don't get me wrong, it tasted fine... once we'd managed to actually cook it. The cooking instructions were so wildly inaccurate and misleading that they might as well have not been included.

Here are the issues: Firstly, you can't realistically cook pastry at 160c fan and get it to go golden and crispy. It needs to be at least 180c fan. Secondly, you need to eggwash pastry before baking it, which these instructions don't tell you. Lastly, they list the amount of time it needs to be cooked for rare (20-25 mins), medium (25-30 mins), and well done (30-35 mins). Which is all when and good if all you're doing is cooking a piece of beef fillet. It takes 55 minutes cooking at at least 180c fan to get the pastry to crisp, so I don't really see the point in including these timing guidelines at all as all they do is confuse things.

Anyway, due to the terrible cooking instructions, everything else for the meal was ready about 30 minutes before the wellington was. Pretty annoying but there you go, we live and learn. So, if you're planning on buying the beef wellington (which as I said, is really nice once it's cooked), just be aware that the instructions are very, very wrong lol.

If I was just judging the food quality, delivery, and service it would easily have been a 5* review. Had to knock a point off for the poor instructions though.

We were informed late into the afternoon of the 22nd of December that our delivery 23rd December wouldn't arrive until the 24th due to a mechanical fault with one of the delivery vehicles, surprised no back up vehicles, which meant our travel arrangements had to be changed. Then when the delivery arrived, two items were missing, no e-mail to let us know, so I could go out and replace them, the e-mail of the refund and missing items came after the delivery. Then I found that the chicken stock was leaking. I spent a lot if money for a substandard delivery with no offer to at least refund my delivery charge. So that is why I have given a poor review for a poor service. I wish I had gone elsewhere

You have ruined my Christmas you only had the 20th for delivery I tried to book the 22nd but when ordering your Web page said I could only book the 20th of December you sent me 10 packs of sausage meat out of date on the 23rd of December full well knowing it was a Christmas order and six packs of sausages witch is £100 I spent £250 with Dorset meat company why I emailed you three times but you would not help me to return the last three years I have spent in the region of £350 first year I purchased a extra large turkey crown and you deliverd a small turkey which I could not feed a family of 12 second year I purchased the largest turkey you have and it did not arrive after spending £350 so stressed I had to telephone you to correct it second time I did not think it would be once bitten twice shy but here I am again with out of date ten packs sausage meat and six packs of sausage which I have lost £100 I will never buy of your company again thanks for the help you gave me which was none

Personal experience: Impressed with the quality of the meat. Fed up with the lack of quality from my local supermarket. Late in the day I know. The dice beef (slow cooked) melted in the mouth. Steak was so tender, proper steak. The beef mince was real mince, cooked well and delicious. Both deliveries I had in the last week went without issues. DPD were excellent, on time even though they must be extremely busy leading up to Christmas. Looking forward placing regular orders.

1st class products and service.
2nd time ordering from Dorset meat and will definitely be using them again

Would give zero stars if I could. Ordered a shoulder of mutton in November for delivery on 16th of December.
They rang me pm on the 15th to say they could not fulfil the order. I'm absolutely furious, family Christmas dinner in disarray. What is the point of ordering and paying early. Will not be using ever again

A non meat eater I buy for family and initially chose this company as it is not halal meat.
My goodness I’m glad I did. I have even sampled it! The meat arrives well packaged and is easily popped into the freezer. It is top class meat, family views are that it is “delicious, tender, nice flavour, waterless bacon, sausages and chicken”.
Customer service is excellent.

Excellent ordering service Arrivws by DHL in good quality packaging with good ice packs Meat is very good quality and value for money Have ordered several times and would recommend to others

Great service in every way possible and I will be happy to keep ordering. Thank you

I have had a good few conversations, with the Dorset Meat Company, in person or by email and found everyone friendly, helpful with good product knowledge. They knew there was a problem with one of my orders which was completely out of their control and by the time I called them it had been resolved. They have always been honest on the rare occasion if a problem has occurred. I have found that the staff will always do their best to keep me informed going to the next level to source a product if required. We mainly buy free range chicken and Christmas produce all of which has been delicious. Packaging is really good with lots of ice packs and contents arrive in excellent condition. I have no concerns after two and a half years of monthly deliveries. (approx.). Jay.

I used this company a few times and their products ia good quality. But my last order was sent to wrong address. I am on their system and if I only put my name, all address comes automaticly .When I contacted them about this problem , they cut off my email. Not a good experience. I will not use them again.

Having just taken delivery of our meat which was well packed and on time we decided to have the chicken for dinner today.
I have never seen so much fluid? come out of a chicken when cooked,the taste was very poor and if this is free range it has put me off and made me fearful about the rest of the meat,but we will see.
