Brace Of Butchers
We specialise in employing amazing staff, procuring local produce and providing a delicious range of handcrafted products. We're nationally recognised for our outstanding achievements in supporting the local high-street and championing our Naked Brace, which is a packaging free range. We hope you like our shop and would be really grateful for any positive messages through Facebook or Google.

I just wanted to say thanks for our lovely meat delivery. I never have time to get to you in a normal week and only just found out that you offer a delivery service. I look forward to ordering from you again. Thanks again. I am assisting with food boxes, community support etc. I have been hearing how much you and Brace are doing.
Services
This has been recognised by fantastic reviews on Facebook & Google, as well as national and regional awards. We essentially provide what supermarkets cannot by supporting and suppling stock from local businesses. We have a very close relationship with local suppliers and manage our buying direct from local farmers and producers.
We're hoping to enter and win more awards in the near future, so keep your eyes peeled for more news from your favourite Dorset butcher! Tom Amery has been around the Dorset food scene for a while, heading up The Wasabi Company - one of the first farms outside Japan to grow wasabi and winner of multiple Great Taste Awards - and the award-winning Brace of Butchers in Poundbury.
Councillor Les Fry, on behalf of the Dorchester Community Support group, said: This is a very nice opportunity to thank our volunteers who have been supporting our community and this is a nice gesture from the team at Brace of Butchers. Our group has been operating for three months now and has completed over 800 separate tasks.
Call Hannah or Erin on 01305 260956 and they will then take your order, address and telephone number. We will then make the order, run it through the scales and phone you back to confirm order value and take a secure payment. At this point, we will confirm the best delivery slot. We deliver on Tuesday to Saturday, generally in the afternoons as we make the orders in the morning.
We are seeking 2 staff to join the award winning team creating amazing Brace of Butchers products for a fantastic customer base. This is an immediate start opportunity. The role is a Sunday & evening shift position to allow maximum shop efficiency and minimal disruption to our retail sales during day.

Last night I enjoyed the best home-cooked steak I have ever had: Tender; juicy; tasty; perfect.
Yesterday afternoon I visited "Brace of Butchers" for the first time. It won't be the last!
Making use of the free parking immediately outside the shop - a great help, being disabled - I used the ramp to easily gain entry. A chair was quickly found to allow me to comfortably place my order: Two 1" thick sirloin steaks, cut in front of me, wrapped separately because I requested it, and in a bag with handles because I asked. An easy contactless payment and I was on my way.
As I was making my way to

Purchased a Cote de Boeuf last week and bbq’d on la plancha and reverse seared on the embers - no exaggeration, it was the finest piece of beef I have ever eaten. Will be back for more!

Wonderful shop with traditional butchers and vast range of dry goods, excellent quality, likely to buy more than you intended as it's all so tempting, but don't tell anyone about it, it's our secret

The team at Braces have kept us well stocked up and been so friendly and easy to place orders with. They supplied us well especially during lockdown, it was such a relief knowing we didn't need to wait weeks for a delivery from a chain, Braces came the next day with all our essentials. Thank you guys so much!

These guys are simply fantastic. Amazing, locally sourced, fresh meat and veggies that are in a class of their own. Have loved every meal we've created from the ingredients here, and the team are genuinely friendly and knowledgeable. 10/10 every time 👍😊

Unfortunately, we had to move away from the best butchers in the UK in my humble opinion and we have used a lot of them throughout Scotland and England. I miss the huge selection of fresh meats which can be cut into practically anything you desire by the fabulous Rob! Nothing is too much trouble for that guy! I miss filling my bottle with fresh milk, the freshly baked quiches, scotch eggs, pies, pasties etc. They have an abundant choice of seasonable local vegetables, spices and herbs, local honey, fresh cheeses, handcrafted drinks and best of all - lardy cake! The owner Tom is super friendly and

This is one of the best butchers I have ever encountered. A great range of meats, very knowledgeable and helpful butchers and very reasonable prices. A wide range of other foods are also available together with some wonderful smelling pies and pasties.
