I am a good cook.
My meatballs are pretty fucking awesome.

I am going to have to make meatballs
my local farm shop has gone right down the pan for some reason, the meat always seems really fatty and is probably worse than supermarket food so I have to find a new one.

Some cuts are meant to be fatty - it depends on what you're buying.

In these trying times, farm shops push their shit quality meat through their own shop.
It is to trade on the "if it comes from the farm it must be good" mindset.

As a commercial enterprise, they will clearly get the best price from a local butcher for better quality meat. You should find a local butcher who takes the pick from the local farms and uses the greater buying power to negotiate better prices which are thereby passed on to you, the consumer.

I've found a good butcher.
Now I need to find one that is open sometime other than when I am at work and Saturdays. I have better things to do on a Saturday than go shopping.

I've found only one butcher within a 3 mile radius that's half decent but the shop doesn't look very clean.
I've been tot he halal butcher a few times but he's SUPER expensive.

I know it's a trek without a motor, but I was never disappointed with Everinghams in Leeds Market
Far and away the best in my opinion.
