  • A farm has scooped three prizes at the 23rd annual Great Yorkshire Pork Pie, Sausage and Products Competition

Hinchliffe’s Farm, in Netherton, was awarded first prize for its black pudding, and second prize for its pound pork pie and thick pork sausage.

The categories cover thin, thick and speciality sausages, as well as traditional, standard and speciality pies. The ceremony was held at the Cedar Court Hotel, in Bradford.

Simon Hirst, general manager at Hinchliffe’s Farm, said, “We are absolutely delighted to have won three awards when we were up against such stiff competition.

“This is great recognition for the hard work and dedication that goes into our quality produce, as well as being a fantastic reward for our skilled butchers.”

Organised by the Confederation of Yorkshire Butchers Council, the awards ceremony is the UK’s biggest and most prestigious regional meat trades competition.

It attracts hundreds of entries from butchers across the country, including farm shops and bakers who make products on their own premises.
