Chilled & Frozen
Ox liver is stronger and firmer than lamb liver, with a more pronounced flavour that suits dishes built around a robust taste rather than a delicate one. We supply it fresh, whole, sliced to your thickness, or diced, with membrane removed on request — for braised liver dishes, pâtés, terrines and traditional liver and onions.
What it is
Beef liver has a firmer texture and stronger flavour than the lamb liver used in more delicate dishes, which is why it appears more often in braises and pâtés than in a quick pan-fried preparation. It needs either a very short, hot cook or a long, slow one — there is little middle ground.
How it is prepared
Whole, sliced to your specified thickness, or diced. Membrane removed on request if your kitchen does not want to do that preparation step in-house.
Typical trade use
Braised and casseroled liver dishes, pâtés and terrines, and traditional liver and onions are the standard uses. Kitchens building a full offal board often also stock our Beef Kidney and Beef Tripe, and our Beef Rump where a flavour-forward working cut is wanted alongside offal on the same menu.
Ordering notes
Tell us the slice thickness or dice size you need, and whether you want the membrane removed. Browse the full Parts & Offal range, within the wider Beef category, for the rest of the order. Ingredient and allergen information is supplied with the goods; confirm the current specification.

Frequently asked questions
Is beef liver milder than lamb liver?
No — it is generally stronger and firmer in flavour than lamb liver, which is why it’s used in robust, braised dishes rather than delicate quick-fry preparations.
Can the membrane be removed before delivery?
Yes, on request — tell us if you want it removed rather than doing that step yourself.
Cut specification, portion size and preparation notes are passed to our butchers exactly as you give them — we do not adjust or simplify them. Average unit weights vary from carcass to carcass; please confirm weights and case quantities when ordering.
