Ox - Liver

Ox - Liver — rich, traditional British cut packed with bold, hearty flavour.

Ox liver is a proper British classic — bold, nourishing and full of honest flavour. Our British ox liver is expertly prepared and packed with natural protein, iron and essential vitamins. Deeply savoury with a tender bite when cooked right, it’s a cut that feeds both body and soul. Traditional, accessible and full of character — this is real food, done properly.

• Naturally high in protein, iron, vitamin A and vitamin B12
• Rich, robust flavour with a tender texture when cooked correctly
• Ideal for pan-frying, grilling or slow braising
• Suitable for gluten-free, dairy-free and nut-free diets
• A traditional British offal cut used across classic and Caribbean cooking
• Vacuum-packed for freshness and easy home storage

Why it’s hard to find

Ox liver is increasingly difficult to find in supermarkets because demand for offal has declined while whole-carcass butchery has become rarer. Many retailers no longer break down animals fully, meaning nutrient-dense cuts like ox liver are often removed from mainstream shelves.
At The Black Farmer, we champion whole-animal eating — sourcing British ox liver from trusted farms and preparing it properly so nothing goes to waste and quality is never compromised.

Best recipes for ox liver

Ox liver has a deep, robust flavour and works best with quick, confident cooking:

• Classic ox liver with onions and bacon
