At the risk of offending the Northern Chippy Squad, my local butcher in That London's Famous City of Westminster gets his from a farm in Kent and it's utterly brilliant. Forget the name, I'm afraid, but local(ish) has to be a good thing!

No particular brand but I generally like those described as Scottish or Irish which usually means plenty of oats (makes it a healthy breakfast 😆 )

Would you drink Bulgarian Champagne?
Or eat Egyptian haggis?
No, of course you bloody wouldn't.

Some Scotch people claim to produce something similar - that's fine; You can also buy a fake Rolex, if you're that kind of cheapskate.

Have some pride, be a man and buy the best.
Buy Bury.

It's from BURY.
In Lancashire.

Where black puddings come from. 😀

Champagne is only produced in the Champagne region, by law. I'll happily drink some truly excellent sparkling from other countries and regions, though. California makes some very nice stuff IMO.

Tell me, is black pudding only legally allowed to be made in Bury? And where's the validity for your "original" claim?

*They see me trollin', etc....* 😉

does one pronounce it "Berry" or "Burry" or something quaint like "Burreh"?

But it's not champagne, by definition. People from outside Yorkshire can be racist, but not quite as vehemently. Stuff not made in Lancs may be nice, but it's just 'blood and guts sausage', not black pudding.

@rustyspanner
Scotch is a drink you toss pot.

English, Bury
Scottish, Stornaway
Irish, Clonakilty

Or just make it yourself.

Scotch is an adjective for anything from north of the border. Whisky, eggs, mist, corner, people.

Druidh has nothing apart from an unneccessary 'h', the complete set of Munros and a nice titanium touring bike.

That Scotch imposter, Mr MacLeod, claims a lineage of 60 years - 1 generation! Impudent pup.
Fraser, obviously admitting defeat, has no claims of provinance for his puddings.

The Bury Black Pudding Co recipe dates back over 100 years and has triumphed against many a foreign sausage in open competition.

Seriously, blood pudding is important business - why go for second best?

Scotch corner is *originally* from north of the border. It's where the ancient kings of scotchland used to stop for a pie and a dump after dismembering a prossie. Was intended to be taken to Westminster abbey, only the chaps carrying it got a bit bored so left it for the maccems.

As a Lancastrian it pains me to admit it it but the Stornoway stuff is the best.

The best black pudding I ever had was from a butcher in the covered market in Stoke on Trent about 20 years ago. It was a classic horseshoe ring. I decided to have a little taste and ending up eating the whole thing like a banana whilst walking around Stoke it was so good.

I love black pud - the rings from one of the butchers at Keswick market are particularly good too.

This stuff is pretty good:

I used to help make it when I was a Saturday boy at the butchers!

I get mine from costco, it's quite a nice one but I keep forgetting to make a note of the brand. It's about 14" long, 3" diameter and wrapped in a smooth black sheath.....We cut it up into slices and freeze portions ready for breakfasts.

The one Waitrose get for the deli counter is quite nice. Often pick up a length when we run out of the costco stuff.

If you ever end up in NZ then Island Bay butchery in Wgtn or Blackball both do excellent black pudding.
The two things i miss about home are haggis suppers and bb suppers !!

Nah, the Bury one is really horrible. Mass produced crap.

The Morrisons own stuff is pretty good! And believe it or not Lidl/Aldi is pretty good too.

But the butchers is definitely the place to go.

Stornoway stuff is way overrated since some poncy restaurants/gastronomic 'experts' started shouting about it.
Those in the know head a bit further North to Ness and get some [url= http://www.cross-stores.co.uk/ ]at Cross Stores[/url]. Doubt you'll get it anywhere else though so that may pose a problem to you what with the ferry and all.

Of course, the stuff my granny made in the byre from a dripping sheep wre even better but she's dead so you definately can't have them.

I'd like to recommend this place

[url= http://www.thebigbangerscompany.co.uk/ ]Big Bangers Company[/url]

He's a young bloke from Ramsbottom who's only set up a butchers recently. His sausages are the best !!! Outstanding!! But he's also recently started doing his own black puddings. They're the best I've ever tasted!

And with the sausages and bacon, went in to my full English breakfast pie
