Morrison's are selling half Sirloins for £40, approx 3.8kg each, whereas the piece they cut the steaks from is £23 per kg. Slaughtered and packed at Colne, Lancashire UK 4471.

Probably woodheads! Is there a problem with them doing this ?

I'm gonna go buy two. Am I likely to be handling stolen goods or something, it seems really naughty.

I think Morrisons meat is very good! I never dreamed I'd be saying that about supermarket meat, but I can't fault it.

Woodheads and Morrison’s used to be tied up with one another. Business wise and through marriage I believe
Back in the day when I did 750-900 kg live weigh bullocks Young Jo Woodhead used to buy at Darlington mart and give decent money for them.

Morrison’s is good for fresh meat. However, I buy my steak and meat for cooking from our local farm shop as I know the two farms where the meat originates and happy to support that chain. Damn good steaks as well!!

I do the same and its always miles better than any supermarket we have bought out of in the past, I have found that buying meat from the super market is a bit of a lottery, you never quite know what you might get. imo support the local farm shop, butcher, they are more consistent and just as cheap.

All the local butchers and farm shops round here get their cattle out of the local martsI do the same and its always miles better than any supermarket we have bought out of in the past, I have found that buying meat from the super market is a bit of a lottery, you never quite know what you might get. imo support the local farm shop, butcher, they are more consistent and just as cheap.
They’ll be nothing wrong with Morrisons beef
We should be cursing them for being so cheap, not praising them.

I refuse to buy meat from a supermarket, but I do make a rare exception for Morrison's for their beef and lamb. The local butcher, farm shop or market is my normal port of call.

Presumably. They've stripped the fillets out of the loins and sold them for nearer £40 per kilo?
Edit.
Just had a squint at their online shop sight.
Beef fillet 21 days matured. Avaliable from 15th Dec. £35 Kg.

There is a certain irony in @Netherfield not supporting the local farm shop but I'm sure he buys other stuff there.
