Introducing our NEW mutton range

Spring is a time of renewal and fresh choices, and at Brakes, we’re excited to bring something new to your menus. As part of our commitment to expanding our Ways to Save initiative and continuing our focus on innovative product development, we're proud to introduce a brand-new range of chilled mutton products.

Why choose mutton?

Mutton is a delicious, underused alternative to lamb, offering a richer flavour and beautiful tenderness, especially when slow-cooked. But it doesn’t stop there—our range includes like-for-like cuts to match your favourite lamb products, such as racks, joints, chops, mince, and diced. Perfect for roasting, grilling, or even BBQs, mutton is a truly versatile option suited to a wide range of dishes.

With food costs on the rise, mutton also delivers great value, helping you serve high-quality dishes while managing your margins. It's a smart, flavour-packed choice for kitchens looking to do more with less.

What’s coming?

Launching in April 2025, our new chilled mutton range features 14 expertly selected SKUs, all sourced from grass-fed, outdoor-reared British flocks. This guarantees superb taste, consistent quality, and full traceability from farm to fork.

The range includes a broad selection of cuts, from mince and diced to chops and roasting joints, giving you total flexibility across your menu, whether you’re creating traditional dishes or modern takes with bold flavours.
