Owton’s Top Tips!
Our 2.25kg pack of Green Back Bacon is unsmoked and cured the traditional way, giving you that classic bacon flavour without any added smoke. It’s ideal for big breakfasts, batch cooking, or keeping a reliable supply in the freezer.
Each rasher cooks up tender and full of flavour. Fry or grill over medium heat until golden and cooked through. Great in a full English, layered onto burgers, stirred through pasta, or added to quiches for extra richness.
Store chilled and use within a few days, or portion and freeze on arrival for easy use later. Simple, traditional, and proper butcher’s quality every time.
Green back bacon is unsmoked, cured bacon that retains its natural pork flavour without the added smokiness of traditional smoked varieties. It’s ideal for those who prefer a milder, more traditional taste.
For crispy edges and juicy centres, pan-fry over medium heat for 4–6 minutes, turning occasionally. It can also be grilled or oven-baked, depending on your preference and recipe requirements.
Yes, this bacon can be frozen for up to 3 months. We recommend separating slices with baking paper before freezing to make it easier to defrost only what you need.
Green back bacon is incredibly versatile. Use it in pasta dishes like carbonara, wrap it around chicken or asparagus, add it to pies, or slice it into quiches and savoury tarts for extra depth and flavour.

About the Cut
Fillet Steak
Fillet steak, also known as filet mignon, is one of the most tender cuts of beef, coming from the tenderloin (within the sirloin area – a muscle that does very little work). This cut is prized for its delicate texture and mild flavour, making it a favourite in fine dining. Due to its leanness, fillet steak is best enjoyed with simple seasonings and quick cooking methods like grilling, pan-searing or broiling to preserve its tenderness and subtle taste.
Owton’s Top Tips
If you’re after restaurant-quality steaks that deliver unbeatable tenderness and flavour, our 4-pack of fillet steaks won’t let you down. Cut from prime British beef and expertly prepared by our butchers, these 170g fillets are beautifully lean and buttery-soft, ideal for pan-searing, grilling or oven-finishing. For best results, bring to room temperature before cooking, sear on high heat for a golden crust, and rest for 5–10 minutes to lock in those juices.
Perfect for date nights, dinner parties or when you simply want to treat yourself, these steaks shine with simple seasoning – we’d recommend salt, cracked black pepper and a knob of garlic butter, then add a side of chips, seasonal greens or a peppercorn sauce and you’ve got a meal to remember. Keep refrigerated and use within 2–3 days, or freeze on arrival for a special occasion later on. We supply our steaks to top restaurants and hotels across the South, so if they’ve impressed you before, now’s your chance to enjoy them at home.
Fillet steak is the most tender and leanest cut of beef, with very little fat and a buttery texture. Unlike ribeye, which has more marbling, or sirloin, which has a firmer bite, fillet offers a refined, melt-in-the-mouth experience.
We recommend cooking it simply to let the flavour shine. Lightly oil and season the steak, then sear it in a very hot pan for 1 to 2 minutes per side for medium rare. Always rest the steak for a few minutes before serving.
Yes, all Owton’s fillet steaks are expertly hand-trimmed by our butchers to remove excess fat or sinew, so you receive clean, restaurant-quality cuts that are ready to hit the pan.
A 170g (6oz) fillet is ideal for most appetites, offering a satisfying yet elegant portion. For those who prefer a more indulgent meal, the 340g (12oz) option makes a perfect large serving.
