Our abattoir charge £18 to kill only - up to 100kg.

Here we charge £25 for a basic cut, bag and label.
£1.50 per kilo for plain sausages, other flavours £1.75.
Boned and rolled joints extra.

So the £27 for kill AND cut that you have been quoted sounds a bargain.

Will be interested to hear what others pay.

PS: Forgot to say, not vacuum packed.

Sounds like a bargain.  I pay £70 for kill, butcher, bag, label, some bacon and some sausages.
Don't listen to the money men - they know the price of everything and the value of nothing
