Our Range

 

Bacon

We always have bacon curing so unless it is a very big order, we can supply on demand.

Dry Cured Bacon Sliced

We buy our pork locally and it is delivered fresh directly to our premises. The french way of butchering is somewhat different to that in England, but we buy a cut closest to produce that of back bacon.

The pork is dry cured to our own recipe and not bulked up with water or injected so the resulting bacon does not leave pools of water in the pan on cooking as does some mass produced bacon. It is sold sliced to your requirements.

 

Sausages

In the manufacture of our sausages, we use natural casings rather than artificial. Artificial can be made from collagen, cellulose, or even plastic!

Although more labour intensive, there are a variety of reason for using only natural casings, but most importantly:

  • Natural casings add to the nutritional value of the sausage because they are protein based.
  • They are flavour neutral.
  • They actually contribute to the cooking process and give good eye appeal to the sausage.
  • A sausage cased in a natural product will have that familiar curve, those in synthetic skins look straight and cook straight!

Cumberland

Our Cumberland sausages are made from pork shoulder expertly seasoned with our own special blend of herbs and spices. Although traditionally produced as a single coil we produce Cumberland sausage links for your convenience. Very good on the BBQ and for sausage casseroles. They are one of the most popular sausages in our range.

Lincoln

Our Lincoln sausages are made from pork shoulder flavoured with a blend of herbs and spices including sage. These sausages are great in toad in the hole.

Plain

Plain is hardly the word for our delicately seasoned sausages, made from pork shoulder with a small amount of rusk for texture, again good on the BBQ and for most sausage recipes or simply in a bread roll with onions.

Gluten Free

Our Gluten free sausages are made for Coeliac suffers or anyone else with a wheat intolerance. We supply a chateau that specialises in holidays for Coeliacs. Due to the requirements for ensuring our preparation process is completely free from gluten sources we actually make these sausages on a different day than our standard range.

More info about Coeliac disease.

Other flavours are available on request, e.g. Apple, Leek, Garlic… and these are made by combining our plain mix with fresh ingredients. Our favourite is Lime and Chili pickle, again the plain base with a spicy chutney and are great on the BBQ.

If you’ve an idea for a specialised sausage please get in contact.

Gammons

Steaks (sliced to your preference from the cured leg joint)

Joints

We are trying to have a constant supply of these in stock. However, BECAUSE OF THE LENGTHY CURING TIME (approx 6 weeks) please order well in advance to avoid disappointment. Please ensure the joints are soaked overnight to remove the excess salt.
