🌶️🥩 NEW AT THE BASECAMP BUTCHERS COUNTER 🥩🌶️

We’ve got a new range on the shelves, and our butchers have already started working out what they’d put them with.

DevilDog Sauces are chef-made, Manchester-born sauces built around proper flavour, from sweet and smoky right through to the seriously hot stuff.

And they work brilliantly with meat from our counter.

🔥 OUR BUTCHERS’ PAIRINGS:

🍍 Jalapeño & Pineapple
Try it with chicken thighs, chicken wings or pork steaks. Sweet, fruity and mild with just enough heat.

🍎 Chipotle & Apple
This one was made for pork chops, ribs, sausages and burgers. Smoky, earthy and slightly sweet.

🍯 Scotch Bonnet Infused Honey
Get this over sausages, crispy bacon, pork belly or chicken wings. Sweet first, then the chilli arrives.

🥭 Scotch Bonnet, Mango & Lime
Brilliant with chicken, steak strips or pork kebabs. Fruity, citrusy and properly hot.

🍄 Cayenne, Garlic & Mushroom Ketchup
This is the one we’d put next to a big steak, beef burger, sausage sandwich or breakfast. Deep, savoury and packed with flavour.

🔥🔥🔥 Carolina Reaper, Orange & Cardamom
For the brave ones. Try a little with steak, beef burgers or slow-cooked beef.

And obviously, there is only one sensible way to find your favourite.

Pick your meat from the Counter Basecamp North Lakes , grab a bottle of DevilDog and get cooking.

⚠️ WARNING: MAY CAUSE LICKING OF PLATES.

Available now at on the A66 between Penrith and Keswick.

Who’s going straight for the Carolina Reaper? 👀🌶️

, we’ve finally done it.

Three years of planning. Now the new butchery counter is open and it looks incredible.

We built this space to show off the best meat Cumbria produces and to give you faster service, more choice, and room to grow our wholesale work with top local restaurants.

You’ll find:
• Heritage beef
• Herdwick hogget
• Outdoor-bred pork
• Seasonal game
• Cuts prepped fresh by Sean, our master butcher

Dry-aged beef, 35 days:
Rich flavour. Serious tenderness. It flies out because the quality is on point.

We don’t cut corners.
We don’t compromise on quality.
We don’t get beaten on price.

Festive offers start soon.
If you want something special, tell Sean what you need and he’ll sort it.

It’s out. It’s ready. And it looks unbelievable.

We’ve just taken the rump, ribeye and sirloin out of our 35 day dry-age chamber.
This batch is Heritage Beef, all Hereford, all raised in Cumbria, and the flavour is unreal.

Sean is packing it right now.

This beef never lasts.
If you want some, get to Basecamp asap.

If you want me to put a cut aside for you, just give us a call.

If you haven’t tried wild game yet, this is the season for it.

Cumbrian-reared, fully free-range, and handled the old-fashioned way.
No nonsense. No air miles. No factory farming.

This is the real stuff.

Special:

Fresh Facehugger – Prepped to Perfection! We only deal in locally sourced meats here at The … but we made an exception for this order.

Straight from LV-426, this little beast was a nightmare to catch and even worse to prep — but don’t worry, it won’t be hugging anyone’s face ever again.

Special request from Mrs Weaver — though if she doesn’t show up, it’s going straight into the sausage rolls.

At , we go to out-of-this-world lengths to get your meat just right.

So if you’re after something rare… you know where to find us.

Paired perfectly with a local IPA 🍻
