Order your Traditionally-Smoked Christmas Ham Now!
There are many traditions associated with Christmas... trees, carols, gifts, crackers, pudding and of course, Christmas turkey and Christmas ham!
Saint Johns Butchery makes good use of tradition too. We have been smoking hams the old fashioned way for the last ten years, taking great care to produce tasty and succulent hams for our discerning customers. (And we consider the welfare of the animals when sourcing our meat; all of our pork comes from PigCare accredited farms.)
We have whole and half sizes of ham-on-the-bone and Champagne ham, catering for Christmas celebrations of any size!
So try the stuff we've been smoking and call 09 521 6319 or email dave@saintjohnsbutchery.co.nz to order your Christmas ham now!

So we want to hear what you think:

-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15% ... It is complicated
