Hi Alison

Thanks for sorting the half pig out for me. I enjoyed butchering it on Sunday and I have to say that the joint I cooked on Sunday night was fantastic.

The leg is swimming in a cider brine ready for a gammon feast for some friends in May and the shoulder and back fat are just waiting for me to find the time to re-stock my meat safe in my birch tree with fresh salami and chorizo. I will have to do this again . I really fancy having an air dried ham in my safe for a year or two to see how it develops but that needs to be put in salt in September. Will you have any pigs available then?

Regards,Kevin

Home > Courses > Sausage Making

Sausage Making Cost: £15 and you take home a kilo of sausages together with a recipe book!

Come and make your own sausages! It is great fun and you have delicious sausages to take home.

We have a whole pig de-boned and minced. And not just any old pig. We breed Gloucester Old Spot pigs. This means that the mince is absolutely the best you can get and is pure meat with just the right amount of fat; no additives whatsoever!

We are using a sausage machine which make most of the meat into sausages, with a little mince left over in the nozzle to make into a couple of pork burgers or sausage rolls for something completely different.

You chose your flavouring from the amazing list below, mix it with pre-measured amounts of rusk and water, add the mince and hey presto! your sausage meat is ready. You will be given a length of natural sausage skin to load onto the machine nozzle, put your sausage meat into the container and away you go making your very own sausages. When you have a long length of sausage you will be shown how to twist it into individual sausages. See how close you can get to making them look like the ones in a butcher’s window!


A kilo of personally made sausages and a super sausage recipe book is just £15.





Sausage Seasoning Flavours: Chilli and Garlic, Farmhouse Pork with Herbs, Ginger and Spring Onion, Old English Plain Seasoning, Pork and Cider, Pork and Apple, Honey roast, Traditional, Pork and Leek, Romany and Linconshire sausage.
