H Weatherhead & Sons butchers of Pateley Bridge are no strangers to winning awards; they have been doing it literally for generations. Andrew Weatherhead the 5^th generation of the family has recently been carrying on the tradition by winning the Housewife’s Choice of sausage at the recent Countryside Live event in Harrogate.

Andrew said “I have a lot to live up to, but with our traditional family recipes we are still winning great awards.”

Weatherheads entered 3 sausage recipes into the competition, which had over 200 entrants and were awarded a 4^th and 6^th as well as the first prize with their traditional pork sausage.

“We couldn’t believe that our other recipes of pork with caramelised onion and pork with honey and mustard also did really well especially as there were so many entrants. We love to try different combinations with our recipes, although it looks like you can’t beat a traditional sausage recipe as this is the one that came out tops!” commented Andrew.

H Weatherhead & Sons Butchers shop has been on Pateley Bridge high street since 1876 and have over the years won 100’s of awards for their sausage, pies, black pudding and meats.
