Combining local honey from Sopley Farm and black olives, we marinade Book & Buckets very own Austin- this is their take on a traditional feta made from Sheeps milk. It is packed full of flavour and a perfect balance of acidity which pairs it beautifully with our beetroot & celeriac slaw. Finished off with our homebatched jam made from Sopleys finest green tomatoes.

Slow cooked local Dorset Venison haunch & pigeon cobbler. A cobbler is a baked bottomless pie influenced dish- usually with a pastry top, ours however is served with our homebatched cheese scone. This is accompanied by Sopley roast celeriac & dropped apple syrup- a very hearty wholesome dish!

Cull yaw is a term that’s specifically used in reference to an older female yew (ewe) that’s too old for breeding. Unfortunately these yaw’s are often shunned due to age and it’s such a waste as well as very sad to see. Luckily for us the brilliant The Cornwall Project decided to make a change. Matt Chatfield (the farmer) started a system where mothering sheep were grazed and fattened in higher welfare on forested pasture. He was prolonging their quality of life for the greater good and creating a causation out of it. It only took him a year to prove that the Cornwall Project can integrate into the butchering system of Philip Warren butchers. The quality of this product is second to none. It’s rich with lovely, grassy notes and furthermore a perfect layer of fat as well as excellent marbling. We are serving this with a blackcurrant, rosemary & shallot stuffing. Wood roasted Sopley jerusalem artichoke & kalettes, then a sticky plum & Dorset Blue Vinny sauce to finish. We are super excited about this dish! ⠀
