Oxhey Lane
Farm Shop (Pinner) - Pork
We were right
impressed with the PORK & CHIVE from Oxhey Lane Farm Shop in
Pinner...so here we go with another
variety...introducing the PLAIN PORK...
Jon Wiggett is an enthusiastic
producer who runs the farm shop at Oxhey
Lane, Pinner. He tells us he
only uses good ingredients such as hand &
belly and natural casings, and the flavourings too are
his own, mixed in house to the "secret" recipes
that
have been handed down "father to
son" by Jon's dad.
75-85% meat (dependant on the
recipe) in the mix go in to natural casings
with some rusk and flavourings
and that's it! I spoke to Jon
on the telephone just after we had
sampled the CHIVES and he said quite
boldly that
"you wont get fat out of our
sausages". Well
he's right, no residual fat in the
pan for those CHIVES, or in fact the
PLAIN PORK we've just sampled.
These plain porks are again a "big
bold sausage" averaging 125mm long and
weighing in at around
105g. A good
succulent bite with a medium texture.
Nice herby flavour and lingering
spice. Personally, just how I like
them. Certainly yet another blooming good eating
sausage from Jon Wiggett.
So if you're over Pinner
way, call in to Oxhey Lane Farm Shop,
tell Jon that Sausage Review sent
you,
and buy some! A must to try
believe me.
