Part 3 of our Staff Features takes us over to our new store in Monmouth. Here are two members of the team looking smart in the new uniform. Grab a coffee, take a read and learn a little about them!

Name: Matt Barnes

NP Location: Monmouth

Job role: I’m the manager at Neil Powell’s newest location in Monmouth. So my day to day role includes ensuring we have enough stock and most importantly ensuring there is enough faggots to go around!

Favourite meat + cut: It has to be ribeye; the perfect balance of fat marbling and meat.

What did you want to be when you were growing up?
Army

Favourite meal to cook at home: It might not come as a shock but it obviously has to be steak and chips. Homemade chips are for when I have more time but this is my go-to Friday evening dinner. So simple the ultimate treat.

Your top tip for customers: Read up on how to cook the meat correctly; there are so many useful guides around. You’ve invested money into it so make sure you invest time and you’ll be rewarded with a delicious meal.

 

Name: Paul Evans

NP Location: Monmouth

Job role: My role at Monmouth is serving customers and ensuring they have the knowledge and everything they might need. I’ll ensure all of the displays are ready for the day ahead.

Favourite meat + cut: Steaks seems to be quite a common theme here and my favourite cut is Rump. It might not be the most tender but I think it wins on flavour and whats more is that it’s a really good price!

What did you want to be when you were growing up? I wanted to be a football player like most boys but it obviously didn’t go that way!

Favourite meal to cook at home: a delicious classic; spaghetti bolognese. Pop abit of smoked streaky bacon in there for extra flavour and make sure you use lean minced beef!

Your top tip for customers: you don’t have to spend loads to make something tasty and you’ll be surprised at the difference of qualtiy between a butcher’s shop and supermarket!
