AWARD WINNING YORKSHIRE BEEF AT THE CROWN

if you want to sample the very best local produce then be sure to visit The Crown Hotel in Bawtry, where the award winning beef is scoring top marks with customers.

Local farmer, Gerard Farmer of Croft Bank Farm in Westwoodside is the latest supplier to have been contracted to supply prime cuts of beef to the four star hotel on Bawtry Rd.

Gerard comes from a generation of Arable farmers and began rearing his award-winning breed of Red Poll cows about 5 years ago. The Red Poll cows are a native breed and are known as ‘dual purpose’, which means that as well as producing brilliant beef, they also produce excellent milk.

Head chef, Caroline Rhodes said: “I am a big believer in knowing where our food comes from, and that’s why always try to use fresh local produce whenever possible. When Gerard approached us to supply his beef, we were more than happy to give it a try in the form of 10-12oz fillet, sirloin, rump and rib eye steaks.

“The response from our customers was excellent, the quality of the beef really shone through in terms of texture and taste, and I had absolutely no hesitation in signing up for more of the succulent steaks, which are now regular feature on our menu.”

Gerard said: “I have been aware of The Crown’s excellent reputation for quite some time, and I am naturally delighted to be associated with such a quality establishment.
“Before selecting a hotel to supply, I did a lot of research into hotels in the area, and The Crown was a clear winner, as I believe it is trying to achieve what I want to achieve in terms of quality, presentation and price. “
