Westlers hotdogs & burgers

Does anyone know where these can be purchased? my family are addicted to them, but they're the ones that you get at burger stands, and can usually only be purchased wholesale at places like Booker Cash & Carry, or selected stores, none of my local stores sell them. Any ideas?

Thanks for any help.

    think i used to see them in B&M stores but when i was there last w/e at my local branch, they didn't have any in. dunno whether they'd sold out or they've discontinued this. it does appear that the store buys in discontinued stock in the food section (not sure about the other lines) some are really good brands and others are of the obscure unknown variety...

    Thanks Dogstarheaven for info - I do have a B&M not too far away, will try them, as they're of such a higher quality, and value for money than all the others I've tried so far.

    Thanks again.

    You can get the burgers in Farmfoods but them come with gravy and onions they are £1 for 4, just drain off the gravy and onions if you don't like it, thats what i do then cook them in the microwave in water

    Hi Deanos

    Have seen those in Farmfoods, but the fact they were in gravy and onions put me off, however, I'll try your trick - nothing ventured nothing gained.

    Thanks for advice.

    you can also try Heron Foods, they seem to have a lot of the 'old-fashioned' stuff in, don't they? their milk is cheap too.

    Thanks Dogstar,

    I actually popped into my local Herons yesterday for the first time, and was quite pleasantly surprised at how cheap they were, I left with a basket full of bargains, will be shopping there again for sure.

    Thanks again

    I have been buying these at Makro so this is the only place I can find them. They are the burgers with the pieces of paper between each one, the sort you get from the burger stands. They taste so much better than the ones in gravy.

    Yes, those are the ones I was after. I used to work for a company who gave all employees Makro cards, and I used to stock up on them, I unfortunately no longer have a card, and can't seem to find them anywhere, other than buying a huge amount on line - such a shame, as they are of such good quality, better than any high street store brands.
