An ancient method of cooking
Scotland has a long history of producing a rich and varied selection of world-class cuisine. Smoking meat is an ancient method of cooking.
It is a long, slow and gentle process, which allows us to add the final levels of flavour to our home bred animals, as we bring our farm to your fork.
Potterland’s Unique Smoker
James has always been interested in engineering and he has honed his skills working on a range of agricultural machinery. With these same skills, he has created two smokers (so far) here on the farm. His first smoker was made from old oil drums. We smoked meat for our own use and quickly realised it was too good not to share!
James designed and hand built our current smoker, right here in the farm workshop. The smoker is bigger, crafted from a disused gas tank, and allows for more meat to be smoked at once. The design is an ongoing project as each smoke leads to a tweak here or modification there as we strive for perfectly smoked meat.
