Are you looking for something to turn up the heat at your next dinner party? Especially come Christmas Day or in the run up to? Well Iceland is launching, quite literally, the hottest Christmas product on the market with its Carolina Reaper Pigs in Blankets priced at £2.00 for 252g.
The sausage has been blended with the world’s hottest chilli pepper and then wrapped in bacon, which intensifies the taste of chilli within the meat, instead of simply being topped with the spice.
To find your nearest Iceland, we’ve popped the store locator here for ease. You’ll also find the opening and closing time information listed there as well.
The Carolina Reaper was first created in 2013 and has gained a stellar reputation around the globe for its intense heat of 2.2 million Scoville Units. It remains the hottest chilli in the world. If shoppers are looking to test their taste buds this festive season, these sausages promise to add a kick to any Christmas spread.
For those that can’t handle the heat, or simply prefer to not accompany their Christmas dinner with a glass of milk, Iceland also recently introduced another delicious porky treat with its Luxury Pigs in Blanket Mac & Cheese (£2.99, 400g). The supermarket has combined pigs in blankets with its award-winning Iceland Luxury Vintage Cheddar Mac 'N' Cheese (£2.25, 450g).
The dish offers a delicious flavour as the savoury sausages, wrapped in crispy smoked bacon are paired with Red Leicester, parsley and topped with crunchy breadcrumbs for the ultimate Christmas taste in a midweek meal, whether the tree is up or not.
If you can’t resist a Pigs in Blanket at the best of time, then you’ll love Subway’s offerings for Christmas as they have unveiled their festive menu for 2020 and it includes a six inch Pigs in Blanket sub. With Christmas only a few weeks away, Subway is getting customers in the festive spirit with their new menu including sandwiches and hot drinks.
Greggs have also launched their Christmas 2020 menu and it includes vegan mince pies and a delicious festive bake. This year’s menu sees the return of popular items including the festive bake, pigs under blanket baguette and Christmas tree biscuit - perfect for filling you with holiday cheer.
For the fellow mac and cheese fans out there that are looking for a bouji edition to their Christmas dinner, Aldi unveil new Lobster Mac and Cheese for £5.99 - perfect for Christmas. The supermarket has brought out their own version of the delicious side as a main, which is out now and hopefully appearing in our fridge this Christmas.
One thing’s for sure, we won’t go hungry this Christmas.
