ABOUT 'MCKEANS'

McKeans is a specialist manufacturer of Haggis, which was founded in 1850 and is based at The Balmore Estate, Glasgow G22 7UB, Scotland. Haggis is a traditional Scottish dish, made with pigs' heart, liver and lung, minced with onion, oatmeal, suet, spices, and salt. It is traditionally boiled in the animal's stomach. The McKean cooking process involves the simmering of the Haggis in large open-top vats containing the stock, which is richly flavoured and is absorbed by the natural casing of the Haggis. The McKean recipe for herbs and spices has been carefully guarded for 150 years.

The McKeans website is accompanied by lively bagpipe music, and is organised into the following main sections: Sma' Chief Haggis, Clootie Dumpling, White Pudding, and Warrior Haggis. Each type of Haggis may be bought online for postal delivery.

There is an illustrated guide to cooking Haggis, which emphasises the crucial importance of keeping the water below boiling point. Other articles cover Rabbie Burns and his 'Ode to a Haggis', and the sport of Haggis Hurling. The world record for Haggis Hurling has been held by Alan Pettigrew for 18 years. He set the record in August 1984 when, on the island of Inchmurrin on Loch Lomond, he threw a 1lb 8oz Haggis a distance of 180 feet and ten inches.
