Pies and Pasties

Sausages & Burgers

We’ve managed to win a haul of gold awards in the national Q Guild’s 2009 Smithfield Awards, two for our traditional pork sausage one for stuffed pork loin and a Christmas special.

The Smithfield Awards, held in London, are among the most highly coveted in the meat industry and a true indication of excellence. More than 500 products from Q butchers throughout the UK were assessed by an independent panel of experts. We’ve also won awards recently for our Thick Pork Sausage,  Lincolnshire Sausage and Beefburger with Chilli & Cheese.
