Bearman Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I nipped into Morrisons today and bought two pigs trotters, so its Crubeens for tea tomorrow and I bought some tripe for tripe and onions on Wednesday.

I'll get a hairy chest yet! Compared to other supermarkets, the meat department at Morrisons always delivers interesting, keenly-priced cuts, alongside the standard stuff. I had ox cheek on Sunday, which was very tasty. Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.

Stevo Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Made some chilli paneer for me tea - hot and spicy, but not so hot it wasn't wolfable Very cold Polish lager at hand, purely precautionary and just to be on the safe side. It's not a question of coming down to earth, Mr Duxbury. Some of us, Mr Duxbury, belong in the stars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Futtocks Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Chicken breasts, seasoned with salt & pepper, coated on top with a layer of red pepper hummus, topped with a little lemon zest and smoked paprika. Baked in the oven for about 25 minutes. Very easy, very tasty. 1 Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted.

That's good eatin'! Add finely chopped gherkin and capers, teaspoon of lemon juice and plenty of dill - voila - home-made tartare sauce. Miles better than shop bought. Make sure the mayonnaise is Hellman's though. Trying this place today, sounds promising. http://www.theoldcowshedchisworth.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin Evans Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) Donny market.... a stall there sells the best black pud I've ever tasted.... Question. Does anyone know if you can still buy weasand ? Tripey Lisa on Donny market says they'e not allowed to sell it anymore but wasn't sure if that was a country wide law or just her provider?

Which animal's weasand are you looking for? Probably a decent chance of finding it would be at an Oriental supermarket.

Leeds China town is a shadow of its old self but you can still get some interesting examples of animal physiology. Personally, not for me. But I bet I've eaten a fair bit in some of the sausages I've had down the years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it is beef gullet you want, I doubt that an Oriental supermarket would have it after all. They mostly do chicken and pork "bits". I suppose, if you find a butcher that has direct links with a farm supplier, they might be able to get it for you.
