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.
that looks good Rusty, where's it from?
At a guess..,Bury? 😉
It's from BURY.
In Lancashire.
Where black puddings come from. 😀
Bury.
Also where I come from.
Bury St Edmunds?
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....* 😉
tony m and druidh have it

If its good enough for Gleneagles its good enough for you lot. 😆
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.

Scotch is a drink you toss pot.
English, Bury
Scottish, Stornaway
Irish, Clonakilty
Or just make it yourself.
Oooh, war of the Roses over black pud! Awesome! 🙂

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

ooooo hark at you!
you forgot broth, and Scotch Corner is south of the border.
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.

You're dead to me now.
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.

Pfffft, Scots/Scotch, Kilt/Frock.
All the same really, isn't it?
Yorkshire? Lancashire?
It's all just Northern, isn't it?

+1 Stornoway.
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.

Just £50.00 can help people like me discover our true cultural identity. E-mail in profile, please give generously.
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 or Aultbea 8)
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.
Liking the sprig of parsley with the Bury pudding 😆
I normally have an egg with it instead.
only one black pudding to eat from Scotland and thats Stornaway Black pudding. There are 2 brands from stornoway but Charles Macloed is the one you want
It's about 14" long, 3" diameter and wrapped in a smooth black sheath.....
Nobody likes a braggard....
Best black pud I've had was home made stuff in the Buthcers Arms in Hepworth nr Huddersfield. Bloody luverly.
Stornaway every day, served with mango chut-en-ay
The peoples poet...
What is rusty sherrif's badge banging on about? That stuff from bury looks like it's made of dead whippets and steam engines 😀
Seriously, blood pudding is important business - why go for second best?
exactly. boudin noir from france is superior to that cheap northern muck.
I'd like to recommend this place

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

Mango chutney?!? La-di and indeed, da.
Jesus H Corbett, look at the Bury puddding again, that's REAL chunks of fat in there, that is.
Look, you can argue all you want, and maybe, just maybe that Stornaway stuff is edible (if served with a wooden spoon and washed down with some Buckie), but is not, and never will be a proper pud.
Look, when the Goodies featured black pud, did they set the episode in some God forsaken Scottish wasteland?
Of course they bloody didn't!
They set it in Lancashire, because they knew their history.
I can see where some of you have gone wrong here, but if you apologise nicely and admit that you're wrong, we'll say no more about it.
Haha! I designed the big bangers company's business cards and menus for him!
Not tried their pud though..
Being from bury is have to say BURY black pudding, warm from the stall on the market with some vinegar on it, I think my friend's mum owns the stall, and the muffin one (oven bottom)
Oven bottom muffins, the real bread of heaven!
Careful though Sam, the Scotch will be claiming that they invented those next.
Along with, oh I don't know, something equally unbelievable, like television, or the bicycle tyre. 😉
This has been my favourite thread from the last 6 months. Truly hilarious. Thank you all.
For the record, I am a keen 'pudding consumer, however I have never been overly concerned about its provenance. This may change.
[i]a young bloke from Ramsbottom who's set up a butchers[/i]
Butchers. Ram's bottom. Eew. none of yer fillet mignon here, lad, we eat mutton arris.
sam - got one of his cards in my wallet. did you design his packaging too? Its a nice job that, sir

Yorkshire folk are basically southerners, your opinion is meaningless.
I once bought a butty in Scotland - egg and square sausage, [b]WITH STORNOWAY BLACK PUDDING INSIDE THE SQUARE SAUSAGE.[/b]
Yes, a square sausage made with a black pudding inside it. Deal with it.
Not tried deep fried butter yet but with the Scots' genius for cuisine it's got to be good.
Two wrongs for the price of one!
Its got to be from Bury!!!
We had a Bury Black Pudding Eating competition once to raise money for the charity I work for apparently they had girls wearing tight t-shirts which said 'I love my puddings' genius!
The sausages from that guy on Rammy market as Binners say are fab and make our weekend!!
Cheers Didn't do the packaging, dreamt up the butchers apron blue and white stripes aesthetic and it works nicely..
I'm not actually a graphic designer, my degree is actually BSc Eng Product Design, but the stainless steel fabrication business I work for has a printing business as a sister company so when things are quiet on the drawing large bits of metal side of things I get to play on illustrator.
Anyone got a job for a skilled engineering design graduate with great SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Illustrator and Photoshop abilities, and a passion for problem solving and black pudding?
Grum, I was born in Crumpsall Hospital, near the Co Op cream cracker factory, in Manchester.
It was my dad who was the Southener, but we don't like to talk about it.
Personally, anywhere south of Deansgate is a bit suspect.
Anyway, you Sir are a traitor and will be first against the wall when the revolution comes.
Square sausage? No wonder they built that wall.
Slight thread hijack, but can anyone tell me where in the south I can get a proper i.e. battered, White Pudding?
These and Bridies are the thing I miss most about Scotland.
That Bury stuff looks pretty vile, what you really want is Morcilla, ideally the onion variety sold in Guadalupe, Extremadura. Which is particularly fine on a sunny day with a cold beer.
Although the Burgos variety (made with rice) is also pretty good.
Does that Bury shite make your teeth fall out and grow an extra finger? Just wondering if they had been giving it out to pregnant women. It would explain a lot.
Bury is in Greater Manchester, not Lancashire 😉
Those pieces of fat would usually be sweetbreads.
Oh I'm sorry portlyone, it's all clogs,cobbles and crap black pudding to me.
Just had to go have a bacon, egg and BURY black pudding muffin for dinner, awesome stuff.

Well really I'm from Westmorland, but I now live in Lancaster (you know, the traditional capital of LANCASHIRE) - but I have utter contempt for all you la-di-da southern types in Manchester. When they rebuild the wall I hope it goes just south of Lancaster. 😉

It were all Lancashire in my day, lad.
[i] Bury is in Greater Manchester, not Lancashire[/i]
IT may werry very well be, but it's still Lancashire. The county cricket champions, Lancashire, are based in Manchester. Thus, Manchester is Lancashire.
No wonder they built that wall.
you do know that we subcontracted the wall to some bunch of italians because those south of the wall were too soft to it properly. we did because you were trym to get our black pudding and we didn't think you were up to proper man food. and that the agreement was they'd be paid in copious quantities of proper black pudding, but when we decided to give them deep fried mars bars (named after the roman god of saturday nights out)instead , they took to eating some muck from bury or someplace and two weeeks later, the empire collapsed.
FACT(ish)
Just spent weekend with the GF's family. They come from Stornoway and brought some black Pudding down with them as they always do...got to say it's the best I've ever tasted.

Away with your fancy cuisine. Is that made out of donkeys chucked off churches?
it's what's left after a poor pinata has been clubbed to death.

That's Zamora. 🙄
And I think they've banned throwing live ones off now anyway.

Anyway,black pudding cannot be eaten in any country that has less than 100mm of rain during Summer. Its against the laws of nature, so Spain is out.
Morcilla de Burgos?
You can see from the picture that the sausage is filled also with cooked rice.... a way of bulking up the sausage to make it more cheaply.
Yeah sounds classy.
My advise would be to find a butcher that sells a local one in links (rather than mass produced slices). The Bury branded one I bought in my local supermarket was OK but not up to the standard I was expecting or can get from Potteries butchers who sell their own/local produced. But if I was ever in Bury market I'd certainly snap some up.

By the ignorant for the ignorant. 😉
Bury market is, for any committed carnivore, a vision of heaven itself, unrivaled across the planet.
To a veggie I imagine the only place worse would be an abattoir 😀
Charles Mcleod Stornoway black pudding, or the Morcilla from the wee local shops at joyriders in Andalucia.
That Stuff from Bury tastes like something you would apply to a festering wound. In fact, all the black pudding I've tasted in England is rank.

They sell the black puddings warm, sliced lengthways and right next to that stall they sell boiled new potatoes in a paper bag. Perfick.
