Glorious Twelfth: top grouse recipe videos

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:

Next, watch Vivek Singh in action cooking clove-smoked tandoori breast of grouse with pumpkin pickle:

Here's one of our favourites as Tom Kitchin prepares and cooks new season grouse:
