NATIONAL MEAT PRODUCTS COMPETITION


in Warsop and Blidworth as well as a catering operation supplying a range of customers from caterers to other retailers, farmshops etc. Te business still majors as a traditional butcher serving local communities with farm assured select cuts but the wide range of hot and cold eating pies, including rabbit and game, together with other pastry products provides customers with something to tempt every palate. Asked what the secret is


to creating the winning pie Alison commented ‘We use only locally sourced pork, beef and lamb for all our products together with subtle seasoning and everything is made from scratch on the premises’. Alison concluded ‘I am


thrilled at winning this title for the business and the staff - it’s a great boost to staff morale and gives customers the confidence that we produce only the best’ In addition to the Supreme award Alison also took home


a total of 3 Category awards, 6 Gold and 3 Silver awards for a variety of pastry and bacon products. It was a great day too


for David Purser who along with 4 Category awards and 10 Gold awards was crowned Supreme Sausage Champion with his Traditional Pork Sausage. A win that entitles


him to go forward for inclusion in the Meat Trades Journal Champion of Champion’s event being held later this year. Speaking aſter the


competition John Taylor, adjudicator, commented “We were delighted with the standard of products across all categories which once again demonstrated the creative flair and innovation of independent butchers. We would like to extend our thanks to the experienced team of judges who worked tremendously hard in


David Purser accepting his Supreme Sausage Award from NFMFT President Jim Sperring and Judith Johnston of Lucas Ingredients (sponsors)


evaluating the products and providing valuable feedback”. He went on “Our thanks also go to sponsors of this event and Meatup organisers Yandell Media”. Federation Chief Executive


Officer Roger Kelsey added “We were delighted to see


so many entries and our hearty congratulations go to all those who picked up awards on the day. We very much hope they will use these awards to promote their products to customers both old and new”. n
