Course summary

A butcher’s job involves carefully preparing meat. As a butcher, you will have the skills for ‘shaping’, ‘lacing’, and ‘tying’ roasts using boning knives, skewers, and twine. You will also have the ability to wrap, weigh, label and price cuts of meat. Butchers are also skilled placing cuts and products in display counters, so they appear attractive and catch the shopper’s eye.
