Janice Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Hi Does anyone know the opening times of Ludham Butcher, in particular do you know if they will be open on Good Friday please. We want to pick up some BBQ supplies but are not able to until Good Friday. Thanks Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Personally I'd be VERY surprised if they (or any other butcher) were open Good Friday. but I hope a more reliable answer will be along soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janice Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 Ummm hope your wrong . Just had a quick general search on the web. The follow are open half day so there may be hope . Suffolk http://www.rolfesbutchers.co.uk/opening-hours It's not Ludham but if they are open others might be. Forever the optimist ha ha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I absolutely hate to do this but... Tesco website says the store in Stalham is open from 08:00 to 22:00 on Good Friday. So, if all else fails...!!!! I think the Ludham butcher's telephone number is 01962 678226, but I picked that up from Google so it might be wrong!

Oddfellow Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Be a shame to use Tesco is Roys is open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I walked past a few weeks ago. I'm pretty sure they are closed Mondays and Saturday afternoon. As others have said they will almost certainly be closed Good Friday. However it might be worth giving them a bell just in case they'd be willing to prepare it the day before for collection. Might be worth a phone call. Good butchers. Otherwise Roys might be an option. I wouldn't risk my burgers from Tesco! :-o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I suppose as a very last resort there is always the large supermarkets, that will be plan C or D lol. The sausages from the Ludham Butcher, they are delicious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MauriceMynah Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 What of the butchers in Hoveton? Whoops I hadn't thought of Roys!! Butchers in Stalham is also really good. So many good butchers, so few sunny barbeques. Maybe this will be a good year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNog Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Massingham butchers in Hoveton are very good as are Cawdrons in Stallham (IMHO of course) ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I have to admit to being VERY surprised to find any butchers open at all on Good Friday... I stand well and truly corrected! Hells teeth, I've half a mind to come up and have a barbie just to support them all !!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlesprite Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 The guy who runs the Ludham butchers is a very ardent Norwich supporter, hence the Saturday closure to give him time to make the ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Im planning to drop by Farm to Fork and Fish at Horstead on our way to collect the boat at Stalham. They do lots of good BBQ food. It is possible to walk there from Coltishal Common, it about a 20 min walk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely, however My comments in another thread We are coming up early Friday, going to Salhouse for an evening of celebration and then the next day off somewhere to have a BBQ, Steve normally sorts out the location so no idea at the moment where we will end up lol. On Sunday we will most likely be suffering from food poisoning as I am organising the food and Steve and Mike cooking it lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janice Posted April 20, 2014 Author Share Posted April 20, 2014 Just an update, we got the meat from Ludham Butchers, on Good Friday and we have to say it was excellent. We did not have the BBQ in the end as the weather was against us. We cooked some of the chicken ( there was too much too cook in one go ) in the oven with Italian herbs and cooked the sausages with a sprinkle of herbs with chilli and ate it with rice. All was very nice. Tonight we cooked the rump steak in a curry sauce, it was very lean and tender. Have not tried the beef burgers. Would recommend the butchers for good food and a very friendly service. Jan and Mike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
