Don’t forget that we can help with your Christmas food shopping.
If you’d rather not spend hours in the supermarket car park and waiting at the till, why not download our Christmas Order Form, drop your list into the shop by December 22nd, and pick up your completed order by 3pm on December 24th.
And if you’re a fan of great gammon, why not get one of our Christmas gammons, from the same specialist supplier as our extremely popular bacon. Gammons come in a minimum size of 5.5kg, and gammon orders must be received by December 15th.
And here’s the easiest way we know to cook gammon. I usually do this on the evening of Dec 24th and it’s cooked perfectly by morning.
1. Soak the gammon in a large bowl of water for an hour to reduce the salt content
2. Place 2 layers of tinfoil across the base of a roasting pan, lay them in opposite directions and leave enough length each side to wrap over the top of the gammon
3. Place the gammon on the tinfoil and pour over 1 cup orange juice and 1 cup lager.
4. Close the foil over the gammon and place in the oven.
5. Bake for 30 mins at 160 degrees, then reduce the temperature to 150 degrees for a further 150 minutes.
6. Switch off the oven and leave overnight.
Glaze and eat.
