Services
Our friendly and expert team is here to help you so if you need advice on cooking a particular cut of meat, please do ask! Born and bred within a stone's throw of the Market Hall, Alf started his working life as a butcher for the Ashton Co-op where he became a manager in his early 20s. He worked at the Co-op for around twenty years before setting up his own business, A Pearson's Family Butchers, in 1984.
Here at Pearsons we want to ensure that you have full traceability of our meat products. We always use local producers to supply our beef, lamb, poultry and pork - this means we can provide you with excellent quality, value and consistency. Our beef comes from trusted suppliers in Tameside and Oldham.
We are extremely proud of our British meat products and have been award-winning butchers for many years. Pearsons Butchers won the Diamond Award for the Best Sausage in Britain with our Pork & Honey Glazed Parsnip recipe. The award was presented by famous chef, Jean-Christophe Novelli. Pearsons won the International Competition Eurobeef 2011 Silver Medal for our Steak & Onion Sausages.
We supply our quality meat products to a variety of different businesses including bakeries, pubs/restaurants, golf clubs, nurseries and health bars. Have you sampled our sausages and home cured bacon at Housing Units of Hollingwood's Wickentree Restaurant yet?

We always supply the very best quality at a competitive price so if you are reviewing your current supplier or would like a no obligation chat with us about how we can help your business or organisation then please do get in touch.
Outdoor reared, free range pork has the best texture and taste - and this top quality pork is used in our award-winning sausages. Our sausages are all home made and totally delicious. Off course we produce all your original favourites as well as our newer recipes such as Pork & Honey Glazed Parsnip sausages - which fast become your favourites as well!

Proper. Can get quality here.
Not sure why some miser gave 1 star. Saying lamb tasted of mutton. Must of had more flavour. Perhaps tougher.
Some people have no iDeer of the impact of their unfair disposable words. Poor karma maaan.

Brilliant selection of high quality meats, staff are friendly and helpful. They also sell pork pies and sausage rolls. A little on the pricey side but as long as you don't mind paying for quality it's fine.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. Pearson’s have a great range of products, which is why I started coming here in the first place. Not to mention the quality and freshness of locally sourced products is always top notch.
