🌿 Why Game Meat Deserves a Place on Your Plate
Looking for meat that’s healthy, ethical, and bursting with flavour? Game meat checks all the boxes.
✅ Lean and Nutritious – Wild game is high in protein and low in fat.
✅ No Additives – No hormones. No antibiotics. Just pure, natural meat.
✅ Sustainable and Ethical – Harvested in the wild, managed responsibly by Europe’s hunters.
✅ Rich Culinary Tradition – Game connects us to culture, land, and heritage.
✅ Good for Nature – Choosing game meat supports biodiversity, rural economies, and habitat conservation.
At FACE, we believe game meat is more than just food — it’s a responsible choice for people and the planet.

Brilliant !!

“You can’t make a good sausage out of 100pc lean pork — it’d be as dry as kelp.”

That’s just one of many plain-spoken truths from Seán Kelly — second-generation butcher, food producer, and proud Mayo man — who’s taken a 1930s butcher shop and turned it into something few in the west of Ireland have managed to do: a full-scale food brand with supermarket contracts, awards, and a working abattoir still out the back.

But it hasn’t been easy. The story involves bad batches of sausages, stiff rules, disappearing butchers, and a few hard-learned lessons from his late father.

It’s also about what it takes to stay standing in rural Ireland when small businesses are dropping off every year.

▶ From dumping sausages to winning gold medals in Germany
▶ From dressing cattle to crafting cheese-filled burger bombs
▶ From losing his mother at age six to keeping a family business alive nearly 100 years later

Seán Kelly isn’t just surviving. He’s reinventing the butcher’s trade — and doing it on his own terms.

Have you ever tried Kelly’s sausages or puddings?
Or are you one of the few still running a local shop, abattoir or mart business?
Let us know in the comments — rural trade has changed, but are we still fighting for it?
