Our Gammon take a minimum of 3 weeks to cure so we usually sell out mid December and remove them from the web-site.
Please order now and enter your preferred delivery date in the comments box when you check out.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.
All Blue Pig Company Sausages are made with a minimum lean pork content of 75%.
We think our customers prefer to buy actual pork rather than the assortment of fillers often used by other producers.
Check the lean meat content on your usual brand. It should be above 60% as a minimum.
As the rain poured down at home in the Dales the Blue Pig Company attended Askham Bryan Colleges Lambing Sunday. Thankfully York stayed lovely and dry for the event which attracted plenty of visitors.
We had another great BBQ and hope all our customers enjoyed their day. We will see you again at another event.
The Blue Pigs Black Pudding is fast becoming one of our customers favourites.
We keep our spice mix to ourselves but are happy to divulge the odd secret.
Our black puddings are baked in the oven, in loaf tins, ready for you to grill, fry or bake.
By slowly baking rather than boiling, the pudding has a beautifully intense depth of flavour and a meaty texture.
The pudding is happy to be frozen for 3 months so you cooks don’t run out.
Wrap the prawns in pancetta covering the prawn completely.
Use small wooden skewers or toothpicks to secure, or if your clever, tuck the pancetta in at the ends.
Season with a small amount of black pepper.
Warm up the griddle pan and cook until the pancetta is very crispy.
Dip in a sweet/chilli sauce of your choosing.
Heavenly.
A quick and easy winter to spring soup dish with extra bite.
Fry off 4 rashers of diced pancetta.
Remove from the pan and fry off a small onion and some garlic.
Dice a whole Celeriac and add to the pan.(you could add some celery for a sharper taste)
Use a good quality low salt vegetable or chicken stock to cover and simmer until soft.
Whiz it up until thick and smooth.
Season with a little black pepper.
Swirl in some cream.
Liberally scatter your pancetta.
You can replace the Celeriac with Peas for an even quicker soup.
There are so many recipes out there, each telling you a different quantity of ingredients, but always taste as you go along and create your own masterpiece.
The Blue Pig Co. will be returning to Askham Bryan College (York) 19th March 2017 for its popular Lambing Sunday event.
We will be offering Bacon/Sausage and Burgers sizzling hot straight from the BBQ between 10am-4pm.
See you there.
