Irish Pork
Our Irish pork is carefully selected from local producers who prioritise animal welfare and natural feeding practices. The meat is tender, juicy, and packed with flavour. We offer everything from pork loin and shoulder to pork belly, chops, and rashers. Whether slow-cooked for a Sunday roast or pan-seared for a quick midweek meal, our pork delivers richness and satisfaction every time. Our butchers can also prepare homemade Irish sausages and custom portions for specific recipes.
Irish Chicken
Our fresh Irish chicken is delivered daily from farms that avoid the use of unnecessary additives. We provide whole chickens, fillets, thighs, drumsticks, wings, and diced portions, all freshly prepared to your preference. Each cut is known for its succulence and clean flavour, making it a reliable choice for both everyday cooking and special recipes. Whether roasting, grilling, or stir-frying, our chicken ensures a wholesome, satisfying meal.
Irish Beef
Kearney’s Irish beef is sourced exclusively from grass-fed cattle raised in the rich pastures of Ireland. We take great care to age our beef properly, enhancing both flavour and tenderness. Our selection includes prime steaks such as sirloin, ribeye, and fillet, as well as brisket, beef mince, short ribs, oxtail, topside, silverside, and shin. Each cut is hand-prepared with precision, offering depth of flavour and a texture that melts in the mouth. Whether for slow-cooking, roasting, or grilling, our beef consistently meets the highest standards.
Irish Lamb
Irish lamb is a traditional favourite, and at Kearney’s, we ensure every cut is carefully chosen for taste and tenderness. Our lamb is locally reared and butchered in-house, with options including leg, shoulder, shanks, chops, diced lamb, and offal such as kidneys and liver. Each cut reflects the natural quality of Donegal lamb, offering flavour that works beautifully in roasts, stews, and grilled dishes. Our team will be happy to assist with selecting the right cut for your needs.
Christmas Orders
Christmas is one of our busiest times of year, and we take pride in providing traditional festive meats for family tables across Donegal. Our selection includes free-range turkeys, boneless turkey crowns, glazed hams, spiced beef, and our own stuffing and sausages. We also supply Irish tallow, a traditional ingredient perfect for roast potatoes. Early ordering is strongly recommended as demand is high and we prepare each order with great care to suit your festive plans.
