Chilled & Frozen
Ox head is supplied prepared to the specification you give us — a traditional item across a number of cuisines, generally ordered by kitchens that already have a method for using it. We prepare it whole, split, or to your specification, for long-cooked traditional dishes, brawn, terrine work and soups built on the head.
What it is
This is a whole-carcass item rather than a standard cut, and how it is prepared depends entirely on what your kitchen needs it for — brawn, stock, or a traditional slow-cooked dish. We do not supply a single fixed preparation.
How it is prepared
Whole, split, or prepared to your specification. Confirm exactly what you need — including any specific cutting or cleaning — when ordering.
Typical trade use
Traditional slow-cooked head dishes, brawn and terrine work, and soups built on the head are the standard uses. Kitchens running this kind of traditional preparation also stock our Ox Feet and Beef Tripe, and pair it with our Beef Brisket for a menu built around long, traditional cooking. Browse the full Parts & Offal range, within the wider Beef category, for the rest of the order.
Ordering notes
Because this is prepared to specification rather than supplied as a standard cut, confirm exactly what you need — whole, split, or a specific preparation — before ordering. For anything outside a standard split or whole supply, get in touch so we can confirm we can prepare it as you need. Ingredient and allergen information is supplied with the goods; confirm the current specification.
