Tantalise your tastebuds with Aldi's Fresh Meat Specials this week, available in stores from 14th May, while stocks last. There's something for everyone, and all at everyday amazing prices.
Bring a taste of fine dining to your dinner table with the melt-in-the-mouth Wagyu Beef Burgers with Caramalised Onion (£2.99, pack of 2). Tender and buttery soft, the Wagyu burgers are flavoured with sweet caramalised onion – these are pure meaty indulgence. Perfectly served in a toasted brioche bun, with a side of hand-cut chips and coleslaw, what are 'yu' waiting for?
If you're missing your Nando's piri piri chicken, Aldi has got you covered with its version with a twist…introducing the brand-new Piri Piri Chicken Kievs (£1.49, 260g). These flavoursome kievs are made with 100% British chicken fillets coated in crispy breadcrumbs and seasoned to perfection with a spicy piri piri flavouring. Accompanied with mash and your favourite condiment, these are perfect if you're feeling a little 'peck-ish'.
If a chicken showstopper is what you're after, you're in cluck, with the brand-new Slow Cooked BBQ Chicken Thighs (£2.99, 630g). Tender, juicy, and full of flavour, the marinated chicken thighs - cooked in an oh-so-smoky barbecue dry rub and a sticky sweet barbecue sauce - will have you serving up a storm in the kitchen. Oven ready in just 30 minutes, bake the chicken thighs for 25 minutes, before drizzling with the sweet barbecue sauce, and returning to the oven for a final bronze. With prices low, and the cooking slow, you'll be summer lovin' this meaty dinner delight!
And if that's not enough to whet your appetite, Aldi's Pork Fajita Stir Fry Strips (£2.99, 475g) are also hitting shelves this week. Coated in a fiery fajita seasoning of chilli, garlic, lemon and lime for some zing, Aldi's pork fajita strips are just what you need to spice up your next family fiesta!

Notes to editors:
Aldi is Britain's fifth largest supermarket with more than 875 stores and 33,000 employees.
The company has more than doubled its market share since 2010. In the 12 weeks to 22nd March, Aldi grew sales by 11.0% and it achieved an 8.2% share of the UK grocery market (Kantar Worldpanel data). By 2025, Aldi will operate over 1,200 stores.
Aldi is attracting hundreds of thousands of new customers every year with its range of exclusive brands, passing low operating costs on to customers in the form of low prices.
The supermarket believes in making every day amazing and that's why every single day Aldi delivers on the best possible value for millions of families throughout the UK and Ireland across everything from award-winning fresh produce to world class gin.
Aldi won't be beaten on price; consistently racks up award after award for quality; treats its suppliers with fairness and respect and recognises the responsibility of supporting valued institutions such as Team GB to demonstrate the importance of health and wellness. That's Aldi. That's everyday amazing. The reason they do this? Because Aldi believes that everyone should have access to fresh, healthy, affordable food…it's a right, not a privilege.
The company's current achievements and initiatives include:
- Aldi is the UK's lowest priced supermarket. Research released by Which? showed that Aldi is 19% cheaper, on average, than the Big Four supermarkets. It tracked the price of more than a hundred items at the UK's eight biggest supermarkets throughout March 2020.
- Aldi has a five-year partnership with Teenage Cancer Trust – its fundraising target of £5m will go towards helping the trust to reach out to every young person with cancer in the UK.
- Aldi's rates of pay are significantly higher than the Government's National Living Wage and also above the Living Wage Foundation's recommended national rates. Store Assistants receive a minimum hourly rate of £9.40 nationally and £10.90 in London.
- Aldi is the official supermarket partner of Team GB and ensures every member of the team has access to fresh healthy Aldi food via monthly shopping vouchers, and that 1.2 million 5-14 year olds will learn about the benefits of cooking fresh, healthy food via its Get Set to Eat Fresh education initiative. Aldi has been a partner since 2015 and has extended its commitment to the 2024 Olympic games in Paris.
- In June 2019, for the sixth consecutive year, Aldi was ranked the best-performing supermarket for compliance with the Groceries Supply Code of Practice, underlining its commitment to maintaining fair, predictable and sustainable prices within its supply chain.
