Why not?
Storm turns his nose up at raw chicken so I've not tried him on other raw meats since.

raw food and dry food digest at different rates so it's to stop any potential upsets, although alot of dogs eat them mixed fine

Mine eat mixed fine when i give it buts its mostley only when they have worked a lil extra that day. Beef mince, raw egg, lamb all good and raw chicken or oiley fish on own make a great treat. My two absolutley love raw fish and demolish a bowl full in seconds heads and all lol. Breath is horrid afterwards though

Bailey only likes minced chicken! Won't touch wings/leg quarters/carcasses or anything lol!
He'll eat lamb and pork fine though.

Is there any raw meat or offal that should be avoided as I was considering popping into the butchers to see what they have to try stuff for him as a treat/ bit of variation.
At the moment he has a tin of butchers (usually the tripe mix) which he seems to really enjoy and Wainwirights, these are fed separately as he won't always eat it all if it's mixed but will always polish off the butchers on it's own.
The butchers seems about the highest meat content tinned food in the supermarkets about 52% some of it is less than 10% meat.
I tried him on raw egg recently and he liked that.

i feed all meat and all offal, as i feed whole animals.
If he's not used to it you don't want to feed loads of different meats and certainly not offal otherwise you will end up with bum gravey. Try chicken again as it's the best meat to start with, you can try lightly cooking it just so it smells as alot of dogs don't realise raw meat is actually food. You don't need to cook it all the way through just the very outside, and then less and less. The next best meat is turkey or lamb after that
