    I love it and will have the Great chieftain o' the pudding-race at the drop of a hat.
    There is a scottish bakery down the road that makes a fair haggis, however nothing compares with homemade,
    I'm just not the greatest cook and trying to convince my better half is a challenge.
    That said this wonderful meal should not be just for Burns night, give it a try you never know, you just might enjoy it.

    Went to a Ceiliedh once and they had haggis. There is a scottish company that imports them. I thought it was , fairly good! Then again some of the things that I've eaten would make everyone else blow chunks!

    Yeah, Had haggis in Scotland two years ago. Very much enjoyed it! However, as the poster above says... Some of the the things I have eaten over the years.... I've been to the jungles of Ecuador to the mountains of Kyrgyzstan. You eat what the natives eat.

    My brothers got me canned haggis for Christmas (it was a bit of a *gag* [get it?] gift). But no, homemade haggis is quite deicious, and I look forward to the Robert Burns Supper every year when I get to have more!

    Smile It's all in the hands of the cook!

    I agree totally with the above quote. I may note though, that for the day or shorter period of time after eating haggis, I usually have to be close to a toilet/loo. Who knows what spices and/or other ingredients the cook decided made his recipe taste better?

    Since this deals with Haggis, I will also throw this out for everyone. I picked up my frozen haggis last week. The butcher told me the easiest way to cook it is to bake at 325 for 1.5 hrs, oir boil slowly for 3-4 hrs. Anyone tried either or have a good alternative?

    Looking forward to serving this up real soon.

    Thanks
