Penny Smith, general manager at the Mallard, said: 'Christmas is always a magical time of year, but here in Doncaster we wanted to take this year's celebrations to a whole new level by turning a Christmas dinner staple on its head.

'Pigs in blankets have long been the star of many a Christmas dinner plate, and we thought it was time we gave the spotlight to a new seasonal side dish, by creating something which pays homage to a true pub classic '“ the beef burger.

'In Christmas 2017, we added a seasonal sparkle to our guests' festive plates with the UK's first glitter gravy, and we'd love this year's food innovation to become a Christmas classic of the future!'

Cows in quilts are available while stocks last. Guests can upgrade their side dish for £1.99 when dining from the festive menu https://www.hungryhorse.co.uk/christmas/.
