Protein Power - Introducing our New Protein Power Chicken Boxes
Here at Mettrick's we have created a new Super Lean extra trimmed meat range in association with local Great British athlete Eric Ham.
The perfect addition to a nutrition plan geared towards improving health, losing weight and increasing energy levels, all items in our Super Lean meat range are low in fat and calories yet high in protein.
All of our meat is unprocessed and of the highest quality, with no added water or salt, which can often be the detriment of any keen dieter.
In association with Eric Ham, a local Great British Judo athlete, we have put together a range of super lean cuts of meat that are all high in protein and low in calories.
"Mettrick's chicken is of the highest quality, I choose to eat the extra trimmed super lean chicken as part of my training schedule as I find it helps increase energy levels and build muscle. "

| Super Lean Chicken Fillets (Extra Trimmed) | Loaded with nutrients and antioxidants, including iron, vitamin B6, and an amino acid called tryptophan which will help you feel fuller for longer.

| Super Lean Turkey Steaks (Extra Trimmed) |
Turkey meat is a source of iron, zinc, potassium and phosphorous, all of which are essential nutrients our body craves. It is also a source of vitamin B6 and niacin, which are essential for the body's energy production. If that wasn't enough, turkey contains the amino acid tryptophan, which produces serotonin and plays an important role in strengthening the immune system. |

Mettricks Create Blue Pork Pie to Celebrate Glossop North End in FA Vase 2015 Final
It’s not something you come across every day while browsing the shelves of your local butcher…but to celebrate Glossop North End making it to the 2015 FA Vase final at Wembley on May 9th, we have created a BLUE pork pie!
A family sized limited edition blue pork pie costs £4.90 or a medium sized pie is just £1.25. If you buy a family sized pie or four medium sized pies you will also get a 30p off voucher to spend on one of two Howard Town Brewery ales at Praze in Glossop.
Our special edition pork pie is reminiscent of a time 6 years ago, when Glossop North End made it to Wembley and we created the blue sausage, which went down a storm in and around Glossop!
Also, in 2010 Mettrick’s won the best football pie in the country with one of the pies they supply to Glossop North End.
Coming up with the idea was the easy part! After umpteen attempts we decided edible blue food spray was the only way to get the pie to change colour!
John Mettrick is donating 10 per cent of the proceeds from the blue pork pie to the club, which he’s also been supporting with meaty offerings on the club’s journey to Wembley.
The blue pork pies are on sale in our Glossop shop and also available to order for the rest of the week.
