Not Just For Christmas...

At Redborne we produce a whole range of Fayre for Christmas from Bronze and Norfolk Black Turkeys right through to Hams and Sausages...

The thing is; not only do we produce food all year round, not just at Christmas but we also sell all year round...

With this in mind why not have a look at a few of our Alternative suggestions to see that Turkey and Ham is not just for Christmas...

Ingredients:
1 x Redborne Ham (2-4kg)
1 x 1.5 litre bottle of Idris Fiery ginger beer (Other ginger beer will do as long as it is the full sugar version
6 tsps of Redborne Honey
1 x Savoy Cabbage (Finely Chopped)
1 x 500g pack of Redborne Streaky Bacon
Assorted Vegetables for roasting

Method:

1. Soak the ham for 24 hours in a big pot of cold water, change the water at least twice

2. Place the now soaked ham in a slow cooker and cover with ginger beer. Cook for 6 hours. If using a pan and the hob, simmer gently in the ginger beer for at least three hours and for larger joints as long as 5 hours

3. Remove the joint from the ginger beer

4. Carefully remove the skin leaving as much of the fat as possible

5. Gently warm some honey and smear liberally over the top of the fat

6. Place in a preheated oven for no more than 20 minutes

7. For the cabbage cut the bacon into lardons and fry on a high heat until crisp

8. Add a little butter and place the finely chopped cabbage in with the bacon

9. Cook until soft.

10. Serve with Roast parsnips and potatoes, a little gravy and of course a smidgen of bread sauce
