Hannan Meats

Peter Hannan is known as the Meat Merchant, and with good reason. He’s a fanatical foodie who spends months perfecting his award-winning products like the Guanciale which earned him the Great Taste Supreme Champion award last year. He supplies some of the best restaurants and hotels in N.I. and further afield.

Hannan’s had to build another Himalayan salt chamber to cope with the demand for his Salt aged beef, including locally produced Glenarm Shorthorn and NI European Angus. Hannan’s pay the members of the Glenarm Shorthorn Beef Producer Scheme a premium to finish their cattle fat to improve the flavour of the finished meat. That’s why food writers all over the world think its the best steak they have ever tasted. Top London chef Mark Hix is one of their biggest fans and uses it throughout his restaurant group. Fortnum and Mason just had to get their hands on their goods too!

Their Meat Merchant shop in Moira beside the factory is open to the public offering their full range of products at wholesale prices and is also a treasure trove of other local artisan delights.
