Still time to enter your sausages in British Sausage Week Competition
The biggest sausage celebration of the year gets underway from 2nd to 8th November 2015.
The 18th annual British Sausage Week will be putting the nation’s best bangers in the spotlight, encouraging consumers to visit their local butcher, retailer and catering establishments.
There’s still time for independent butchers, farm shops and suppliers to the foodservice sector to get involved before entry closes on 18th September 2015.
Keith Fisher, butchery development manager for AHDB Pork and head judge, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for anyone involved in making, selling or serving sausages to gain recognition for their quality varieties. Past winners have told us about the positive impact that being able to promote their sausages as ‘award-winning’ has had on sales – generating extensive interest from both new and existing customers.”
