Beef dripping from Tipperary named Great Taste Supreme Champion 2015
The Harrods-sponsored trophy was presented last Monday night at the annual ‘Golden Forks’ dinner at London’s Royal Garden Hotel.
The win for James Whelan Butchers gave the Republic of Ireland its first Supreme Champion since Woodcock Smokery’s wild smoked salmon in 2006. But it follows victories for Northern Ireland in 2011 (McCartney’s of Moira’s corned beef) and 2012 (Hannan Meats’ guanciale), cementing the island of Ireland’s reputation for simple products based on exceptional primary ingredients.
