The Staff Canteen

It's that glorious time of year again (see what we did there) - a time where on the 12th August grouse is celebrated and restaurants cook grouse galore as the Glorious Twelfth marks the official start of the grouse shooting season.

Here's some of our favourite grouse recipes to help you if you're thinking about cooking this game bird for your diners:

First up is Rob Potter and his pot-roasted grouse with Savoy cabbage, girolles and blackberry:

Try this next grouse recipe from Andy McFadden who cooks the bird with spring roll of its legs, beetroot, black pudding, toasted hay and blackberries:

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
