Company background
John Crowe has travelled around the world as a chef, serving gourmet cuisine to presidents, VIPs, and even a former James Bond. But when it came to launching his own business, Carrick Foods, John decided to keep things simple. Carrick Foods has two signature products: a moist and moreish Stout City loaf, made with buttermilk and dates, and a fresh, velvety dill and lemon cured salmon. Such traditional fare might seem surprising for an award-winning chef with more than 35 yearsll appreciate the expertise and craft that goes into every batch.
The Stout City loaf is inspired by the traditional wheaten bread Johns given a LegenDerry twist with its use of our very own Foyster Stout and is delicious served with a simple slather of butter and a cup of tea, or some of the cured salmon. John sources each side of salmon from Donegal Prime Fish, cures it for four days (turning every 12 hours) before covering it in dill, and carefully hand carves each slice. Our craft, our hands, your table,Food is all about sharing. It brings people together and connects us with the land.Bringing Home to Your Table.”
