Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 06:04 · Archive

B. Curtis Farm Shop & Butchers in Wareham has won the Black Pudding Category in the National Craft Butchers Product Awards.

B. Curtis Farm Shop & Butchers in Wareham has been named Black Pudding Category winner in the National Craft Butchers Product Awards, which celebrates the best products from butchers across England and Wales.

David Curtis of B. Curtis said: 'We're absolutely thrilled that our homemade Purbeck Black Pudding has won a national award. Our customers regularly tell us how much they enjoy it, so receiving this recognition is a proud moment for the whole team.'

Curtis paid particular tribute to Shane Cutler, who has made the black pudding for over 30 years. 'It takes skill, patience, and real attention to detail to get it right, and this award is a wonderful recognition of his craftsmanship,' Curtis said. Entries were judged on taste, smell and appearance by a panel of judges including master butchers, farmers and technical experts, with gold standard products then independently re-evaluated before the category winner was decided.

Eleanor O'Brien, managing director of National Craft Butchers, said: 'It's been another competition of high quality, innovative and creative entries from craft butchers. All our members strive for excellence in the taste and flavour of their products and our winners really exemplify this.'
