Pigs in Blankets from The Butchers Blade in Sandbach. Make this counter creation the starting point for a meal with a little variety. It is a useful option when you want to choose your main dish first and keep the rest of dinner straightforward. Use the product’s own description to understand its flavour and format; a creative name alone does not tell you every ingredient.
Choosing for your meal
Check the size, number of pieces and any options before ordering, especially if you are feeding a family or sharing several dishes. Ask Lee about fillings, coatings, seasoning and allergens where these are not listed. Cooking instructions need to match this particular item: preparation, thickness and any filling can change how it should be cooked.
Serving ideas
Rice, potatoes or seasonal vegetables are flexible sides; choose the combination that suits the flavour described in the listing. Prepare those accompaniments first so you can give the main dish your attention. Extra sides are suggestions, not included contents. Follow the label for storage and safe cooking, and confirm any missing preparation details at the counter.

Cooking Pigs in Blankets
Follow the product’s specific cooking instructions; fillings, coatings and pack sizes change the method. Confirm the recommended temperature and time with Lee before cooking. For poultry, pork, minced meat, sausages, rolled joints and mechanically tenderised meat, cook thoroughly: the centre should reach 70°C for 2 minutes, or 75°C for 30 seconds. Clean the thermometer before and after checking.
How to plan a Sunday roastLee’s tip
Crisp, not soggy
Roast them on their own tray, spaced apart, so the bacon crisps rather than steams. A drizzle of honey for the last five minutes is a treat.
What goes with it?
The essential side for roast turkey, or piled into a Boxing Day sandwich with cranberry. A fruity Merlot.
