Proper Black Pudding
Black pudding is one of the most divisive ingredients out there. Turnbull’s Team of Butchers have been making our own award-winning homemade black pudding for decades.
Black pudding is made from Pigs Blood, which is mixed with fat and oatmeal, before being packed into casing. The sausage is then served boiled, fried, or grilled and cut into rounds, or crumbled into small pieces.
If you are a black pudding connoisseur or really want to give it a go, here’s three ways to utilise black pudding:
1) Serve it in Mash
If you’re not keen on tucking into thick slices of black pudding, stir a small amount of crumbled black pudding through mashed potato. This indulgent recipe can be adapted if you don’t feel like using quite so much black pudding.

2) Try it in a Stew
This hearty casserole is a take on Lancashire hotpot. The black pudding is combined with lamb, wholegrain mustard and a tasty gravy, topped off with sliced potatoes. Food doesn’t get much heartier than this.

3) Black Pudding & Sausage Frittata
Not only is this Sausage & Black Pudding Frittata simple to make, but it tastes delicious too! An easy, no-fuss midweek meal with top quality ingredients – what more could you ask for in a meal?
Our Butchers also use black pudding in a range of dishes, such as; Chicken Stuffed with Black Pudding, Black & White Lorne Sausage, and Pork & Black Pudding Sausage.

Burns' Night with Turnbull's
Everything you need to know about Turnbull’s Northumbrian Haggis!
Haggis is a savoury pudding that contains; sheep’s pluck, minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt, mixed with stock, and cooked.
While traditionally encased in the animal’s stomach, you can now
enjoy serving it in an artificial casing instead. We also have a vegetarian option where the meat is simply replaced with chopped root vegetables.
Did you know Haggis could actually be Northumbrian?
The natives of Scotland won’t accept it, but we all know that Haggis definitely originated in the kingdom of Northumbria, which used to stretch from Edinburgh right down to Humber as far back as 700AD where the dish will have originated.
Leading food historian author, Peter Brears, has claimed that Haggis originated in the Northeast of England, and describes it as a “fine English dish” which was made throughout the country from as early as the 15th century.
Peter said that “the modern whisky- soaked image has been manufactured and owes more to romantic patriotism than historical reality”
Listing recipes that would have been common on coalminers tables of Northumberland, he made a claim which may have every true Scotsman take up arms — or at least his knife and fork. “Haggis is an English dish that the Scots decided they would take on when they decided they needed a national identity,” he said.
This is backed up by Historian Catherine Brown. She said that “she found references to the dish” inside a 1615 book called The English Hus-Wife. The title would pre-date Robert Burns' famous poem ‘To A Haggis’, which brought fame to the delicacy, by at least 171 years.
Haggis at Turnbull's Northumbrian Food
Turnbull’s have been making “Northumbrian” Haggis for over 100 years, when Bobby was asked to if he sold Haggis in his shop. Now, the recipe is in the 6th generation of the family, each adding their own variation, and is created using only the finest ingredients. Including Northumbrian Lamb, oats, and our secret blend of seasoning. Our haggis has already been cooked and simply need to be baked, steamed or microwaved until it is piping hot.
We also prepare a range of Haggis Oven Ready Dishes if you are looking for something to try. Such as; Haggis Sausage, Haggis Beef Olives, Haggis Neeps and Tattie Pies & Balormal Chicken. You can also learn how to cook Haggis by unlocking Butcher Dan’s Recipe Vault.
