The Jolly Hog

The Jolly Hog Three Brothers, one obsession. Our story............
Once upon a time there were three brothers. A rugby player, a ship broker and a cabinet maker.

The three brothers loved eating meat, especially pork and would continually talk about food, have great food competitions and even fight over food. One day they were having a heated debate about their favourite roast pork and sausages yet none could agree on the best. The debate became so tense they decided to solve the problem by creating their own porky delights which would one day become the best and most delicious in the whole land and BOOM, the Jolly Hog was born.

Ingredients 👇
1 pack of The Jolly Hog Proper Porker sausages⁠

3. Add a small amount of oil to a pan on a medium heat. Once hot, squeeze the sausage meat out of the skins and fry for 5 minutes to create crispy sausage crumbs.⁠

3. Place Real Seafood’s Red Shrimps in a bowl of water to defrost
