Groaty pudding/Groaty !!!!!!

emmie1234

Hi all, wondering if someone on here may be able to help me. I want to make a recipe in my slow cooker that my Gran used to make for Bonfire Night when we were kids. It's an old Black Country recipe called Groaty Pudding or some people call it Groaty !!!!!!. It's like a really thick creamy stodgy stew, made using groats, neck of lamb, leeks etc... Does anybody know where I can buy groats from? I know Bonfire night has been and gone, but I'd love to make a pot of it, used to love the stuff. Thank you in advance xx

I saw this being made on Saturday Morning Kitchen the other week, on a Keith Floyd clip. The lady helping him make it said to buy them from your local pet shop as they are sold for bird seed. I kid you not!

Never heard of this dish until now. What a great name!

Yup definitley a petshop - only heard about this from a very Black Country colleague a week or so ago. Think he called them pigeon peas or pigeon nuts!!

According to this groats are whole oats. Looks amazing!
