  • Shippam's, a well-known brand famous for its potted meats and fish pastes, has a long and storied history in the food industry, particularly in the United Kingdom.
    I was lucky enough to visit Shipphams in 1983. Today, I will make a modern-day Iconic Potted Beef Spread.
    1750: The Shippam family began their business in Chichester, West Sussex, England. Initially, they were involved in butchery and the provision of meat products.
    1886: Harry Shippam formally established the company, focusing on producing potted meats and fish pastes. This shift allowed the business to cater to a broader market beyond fresh meat.
    Early 20th Century: Shippam's products became popular across the UK. Their potted beef, chicken, and fish pastes were appreciated for their quality and convenience, making them staple items in British households.
    - 1920s-1930s: The company expanded its operations, opening new production facilities to meet demand. Their products were marketed with distinctive packaging and campaigns emphasizing quality and tradition.
    During World War II, Shippam's, like many other companies, faced challenges due to rationing and shortages. However, their products remained popular as they provided a convenient source of protein.
    - 1950s-1970s: Shippam's continued to grow, adapting to changing consumer tastes and expanding its product range. They introduced new flavors and varieties of potted meats and fish pastes.
    - 1980s: The company remained family-owned until it was sold to Brooke Bond, a larger food company.
    - 1990s-2000s: Shippam's changed hands several times, eventually becoming part of Unilever, a global consumer goods company.
    - 2004: The production was moved from Chichester to other locations. Despite the move, the Shippam's brand retained its historic connection to Chichester.
    - 2006: Shippam's became part of the Princes Group, a significant player in the UK food market. Princes continued to produce Shippam's products, maintaining their reputation for quality.
    - Today, Shippam's remains a beloved brand in the UK, known for its traditional potted meats and fish pastes. Their products are still widely available and are a convenient and tasty option for sandwiches and snacks.
    The history of Shippam's reflects the broader trends in the food industry, including changes in consumer preferences, advances in food preservation and production, and the impact of corporate consolidation. Despite these changes, Shippam's has maintained a strong brand identity rooted in its long history and commitment to quality.

    Potted beef sealed under butter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, provided it is properly prepared and stored. The layer of clarified butter acts as a seal to keep out air and bacteria, which helps preserve the meat. It can be frozen in batches to use store three to six months. Best, Rik

    I used to make potted beef to sell in my shop, we won a prize for it. We always used shin beef and ox cheek with seven beef neck bones with plenty of of meat left on and a couple of marrow bone middles, then any beef/pork stock we had and water, we used a commercial caramelised salt and pepper seasoning, that was all, it was minced while still boiling hot and then reheated to boiling point before we potted it in 4oz clear plastic pots and painted lurpac butter on top and then a clip lid, we made lots!

    Hi Rik found the history of the Shippams brand in your video description very interesting, I didn’t realise the company was first established in 1886. Wow - what a heritage! Thanks for sharing this video, I remember growing up you could buy ramekins of potted meats from the local butcher, not only was it enjoyed on toast, but here in the West of Scotland was also sliced up & served as part of a main meal when the new crop of Ayrshire baby potatoes were harvested, plated up with great slabs of creamy butter & sprinkled with copious amounts of chopped green tails - happy memories of simpler times!☺️
    Your creation certainly leaves those wee jars 🫙 of supermarket paste in the shade, thanks as always for sharing & allowing me to indulge myself in old & fond memories! xx 👨‍🍳👍🫶🩷

    Since coming to Canada, I've got into "canning" - by which we mean bottling. This spread would be perfect for pressure canning (and the higher temperature of pressure canning is required for meats to prevent botulism), and could keep on the shelf for months. After all, that is exactly what Shippam's did.
    BTW, you've reminded me of another taste of childhood: Heinz Sandwich Spread!

      Potted beef sealed under butter can be kept in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, provided it is properly prepared and stored. The layer of clarified butter acts as a seal to keep out air and bacteria, which helps preserve the meat. Best, Rik

    Potted meat from the local butchers was a great meal in the 60's/70's , the days of tripe, cow heel, pigs trotters , boiled ham .
    .........nearly all gone now.!

Shiphams is owned by Princes now and not the same at all. I’m so glad you’ve showed this recipe Rik. I always meant to make potted beef but never got around to it. You’ve reignited my desire to make it. Thanks. When you were taking a bite of that luscious toast, my mouth was actually watering lol.

    I love your videos. Beef patè, lovely and very underrated. The original mix reduced down, fully seasoned and puréed could be used as a form of concentrated frozen stock for just about anything. Ps Good to see the numbers reflecting the quality and diversity of your work. PPS. Made grape vine leaf rolls with goat meat and cheese. Oh my, I’ve never had such an experience even though the leaves were past their best (the grower wouldn’t let me take them until she was finished harvesting the very last of the crop).

    When I was young, 30 ish years ago, my parents would buy jars of spreadable meat. Not sure what type, but on freshly toasted bread just spread it and it was so great. Had a almost spice'd taste, but I think it had liver or something in it also. I brought some a few years ago, and it was not the same. Was just too salty and not the same taste. I think I would like to try to make this homemade.

    I wonder if vegetarians have hints on what substitutes for beef and is savory? Would it be some kind of mushroom?
    Yes please give us some variations on spreadables, including the fish pastes.
