Description
Native to Scotland, the Wild Grouse is considered the 'king' of all game birds. It's highly sought after due to the short season it's available, hence why the first day of the grouse shooting season, 12th August, is heralded The Glorious Twelfth. This has been one of the worst seasons we can remember for Grouse. The availability & numbers of Grouse this year have been decimated by the poor spring weather during March & May. Cold, wet & windy conditions meant many young birds didn't survive and therefore numbers are now significantly down compared to previous years. We have a very limited access to old Grouse and hope to be in a position to sell the revered 'young' Grouse over the coming weeks.
Wild grouse is a naturally lean, small bird which requires careful cooking, but when done right will reward you with succulent and rich, gamey meat. Roast whole and pair with seasonal wild mushrooms and watercress for an end-of-summer feast or serve with rich red wine gravy for a luxurious autumn dinner that's sure to impress guests.
NOTE: May contain shot
Some birds are dispatched with the livers attached. These can be cut off and discarded or cooked and served on toast, or used to make a flavoursome stock alongside the bones.
Please note that our whole grouse are sold by unit and not weight, as wild grouse birds vary in size.

About the cut
Whole Grouse
Game was once a key part of the butcher's business with grouse the first game bird to appear on the butcher's block. These birds are carefully de feathered and the innards removed before being dispatched fresh. Be sure to have a quick look for shot before cooking, in the unlikely chance it was missed.
