    Pork and Stilton burgers

    ‘This is a great homemade barbecue dish, perfect for enjoying while watching the cricket. We sometimes make these burgers for the players as a treat after a T20 game. Cropwell Bishop Stilton comes from just down the road in Leicestershire – we try to use local ingredients whenever possible.’


    Trevor Alexander, Head Chef, Trent Bridge
