Savoury Pancake Recipes with Quality Meats.

Shrove Tuesday, commonly known as Pancake Day, falls on 4th March 2025. Traditionally, this day was all about using up rich ingredients before the start of Lent, and while sweet pancakes are a staple, why not switch things up this year with delicious savoury pancakes featuring high-quality meats?

At Countrystyle Meats, we believe that every meal can be enhanced with premium cuts of meat, and Pancake Day is no exception! Below, we explore the history of savoury pancakes, offer expert tips on selecting the best cuts, and share three mouth-watering recipes to inspire your celebrations.


The History of Savoury Pancakes on Shrove Tuesday

Pancake Day dates back centuries and has roots in Christian tradition. Historically, it was a way to use up rich ingredients like eggs, milk, and butter before the fasting season of Lent. While sweet pancakes became popular, savoury versions have long been enjoyed across different cultures. In the UK, incorporating meats like bacon, ham, and sausage into pancakes provides a hearty and flavourful twist on this classic dish.


Tips for Selecting the Best Meats for Your Pancakes

When making savoury pancakes, the quality of your meat is key. Here are some expert tips:

  • Choose smoked meats: Smoked bacon or ham adds depth of flavour and enhances the overall taste.
  • Opt for premium sausages: Go for high-meat-content sausages with natural seasoning to complement your pancake fillings.
  • Consider slow-cooked meats: Pulled pork or beef brisket can create a rich, indulgent experience.

All our meats at Countrystyle Meats are sourced for quality and flavour, ensuring the best results for your savoury pancake creations.
