Made from the suet of grass-fed Angus and Hereford beef, which is then rendered down and clarified into a dripping, the product was chosen as the winner from 10,000 entries at the Great Taste Golden Forks dinner, held on 7th September in London.
John Farrand, managing director of the Guild of Fine Food, organisers of Great Taste, said: “Great Taste recognises flavour above all else and James Whelan’s Beef Dripping is a perfect example of this, astonishing our panel of judges with its pure beefiness and savoury depth. The dripping is a simple, quite humble product made exceptionally well by a master of butchery.”
