Atb j No mate cut the veg and meat (Beef Skirt) into 10mm pieces and it all goes in raw honest its dead easy and they are handsome. In that recipe it says put meat and veg in layers I just mix it all together. One thing I would say is don't try and do it with ready made pastry it just falls apart. Make your own pastry from strong bread flower its more elastic. I whack the flower salt lard and margarine in a blender till its like bread crumbs then put in a bowl and add the water.

The point I was getting at was that I was under the impression that the lakes produced fox killers, not digging dogs. It was when the blood was taken south that it became refined into what it is known for today? 20 minutes ago, TOMO said: clumber spaniel from the north of this county....Nottinghamshire Was it really worth sullying our good reputation by mentioning the Clumber, Tomo?

Born Hunter 17,637 Posted February 4, 2020 Report Share Posted February 4, 2020 The Lab can probably be fairly given to the Buccleuch in the borders. Fen dogs... obvious? or did the significant men predominantly come from elsewhere? The English Foxhound? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
