A packed audience at Quality Meat Scotland’s cookery theatre gathered to watch the culinary magic of the irrepressible Lady Claire, who runs the Michelin-starred Kinloch Lodge restaurant and hotel on Skye with her husband and family.
As she prepared a selection of dishes with Scotch Beef, Scotch Lamb and Specially Selected Pork, Lady Claire told the crowds they have many reasons to be proud of the product produced on their doorstep.
“Here in Scotland we have got the best beef, lamb and pork in the world. Our cattle and sheep are mostly grass-fed and you can taste the difference – grass-fed meat is healthier too,” she said.
Joining Lady Claire on the Quality Meat Scotland stand was Chris Capaldi, also known as Glen, the star of the Scotch Beef advertising campaigns.
