Farmer, Butcher, Chef launches summer menu

Goodwood Estate | Press Article 17/04/24

With Britain enjoying the longest heatwave for 20 years, there is no better time to dive into the new Summer menu at Farmer, Butcher, Chef on the Goodwood Estate.

Available from June 21, the new menu is bursting with fresh, seasonal ingredients including gooseberry, lovage and sorrel sitting alongside our signature cuts of organic beef, pork and lamb from Goodwood Home Farm.

The outside courtyard is the perfect place to enjoy delicious bar snacks from an expanded selection. New for Summer are a Mackerel Paté served on Malt Loaf, a Beef and Blue Cheese bun and Beetroot Crisps.

Goodwood’s group executive chef Darron Bunn says: “We’re really enjoying the challenge of refreshing our Farmer, Butcher, Chef dishes with seasonal ingredients. We are still celebrating unusual cuts of meat, which lend themselves to slow-cooking, but the garnishes and accompaniments are lighter and crunchier. We’ve sprinkled a bit of Summer across the menu.”

Spiced Haunch of Lamb is teamed up with heritage tomatoes and runner beans, our award-winning Pork Belly is rubbed with honey and sage and served with roasted apricots and radishes and there is a new dish of Whole Roasted Stuffed Quail served with sweetcorn, bacon butter and romaine lettuce.

Round off the meal with a Raspberry and Peach Soufflé or a Summer Berry Trifle.

Inspiration for Goodwood’s latest food venture, which is located next to The Goodwood Hotel, comes from the relationship between farmer Tim Hassell, butcher John Hearn and chef Darron Bunn. They work together to create the frequently-changing and diverse menu that showcases Goodwood’s organic farm produce.

Not many can control every aspect of their produce in the way Goodwood can. From the fields where livestock graze to the in-house butchery and eventually to the kitchen – where the dishes are created – Goodwood oversees the whole process.

The butcher is directly involved in designing dishes according to what cuts are available. An original approach that means nothing is wasted. Not only does this show the utmost respect for the animals, but it allows guests to enjoy unusual and rare cuts, bringing nostalgic cooking back to life.

Join us for al fresco dining and long summer evenings in beautiful West Sussex countryside, feasting on delicious organic food.
