Services
At Keating's Butchers we pride ourselves on only supplying pure pedigree Red Ruby Devon Beef. We are supplied by some of the best farms in Dorset and Devon. Once in our shop, the Beef is hung and dry aged on the bone in our cold store for between four and six weeks. This creates a much fuller flavour and tenderness.
All our Venison is supplied by Lulworth Estate and our Game birds are all sourced from Dorset. Our Free Range Chickens and Ducks are sourced from Creedy Carver at Merrifield Farm in Devon. Here is a summary of their venture. We have been involved in Barn Reared Chicken production for some twenty years specialising in the production of a more mature and generally larger bird than normally available.

Having just moved to Wimborne, I bought sausage meat and chicken breasts from Keating's this week and they were superb. I certainly won't buy from anywhere else now. The staff are really friendly, professional and helpful so that combined with superb and extensive selection of meats is a winning combination. I highly recommend them.

Paul and the team only supply the highest quality meat, poultry and game. The service is beyond excellent.
Paul has just made some sausages especially for me to an Italian recipe to make an Anna Del Conte recipe using Lucanega sausages.
When we roasted one of their free-range corn fed chickens it was like a trip back in time for our taste buds. The meat tasted just like when we were kids and our Mums served roast chicken. It's not just the husbandry of the poultry, its also the breed of chicken which being slower growing has more flavour.

Without a doubt, the best butchers around. Amazing produce. We have our own private dining business, and we wouldn’t want to use any other meats. The guys are all very professional, as well as being extremely knowledgable with all of the produce. We’ve never had a bad experience here, and have full confidence that we never will!

Absolutely fantastic service, advice and produce. We wanted a large beef joint for Fathers Day and were advised to buy this amazing fore rib. We cooked it low and slow (100C for approximately 5hrs followed by… a 20min blast at high temperature to caramelise the outside fat) achieving a core temperature of around 58-60C after resting. This produces an amazing all through rare beef. The quality of the joint was outstanding, so tasty, so tender and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Comments ranged from “Wow, OH WOW!”, “Absolutely awesome” to “best beef I’ve ever

Paul and his team are brilliant, always helpful and friendly. I have been buying from them for several years and in 2021 stopped buying any meat elsewhere. Their products are all local, mostly from here in Dorset, and they know exactly where it comes from. We have never had anything less than excellent produce from them. It is also great to have access to things that are hard to find if you go to a supermarket. Local venison, veal, goat, and their sausages are so much better than the prepackaged ones from a supermarket. Go in and have a chat with them and you will come out with something epic

This is a great butchers. The meat on offer absolutely first class. The sausages are amazing (try the pork and black pudding!). The team are a joy so friendly and knowledgeable. Why anyone would buy meat from the local supermarket is beyond me. Try the beef here and you’ll never want to eat the wet and flaccid fare from the supermarket!

Fantastic Butchers where a warm welcome awaits, and they are eager to please.
They will bone anything & have various rubs to please you. Their breasts are succulent, sausages are meaty, legs and thighs to die for & needless to say, their meat is always well hung.
They serve only to ensure that you go away satisfied. You’re sure to return for more. I do.
