A British chippie is selling deep fried pigs in blankets – and they’re a foot long.
Brothers Antoni and Theo Tsiolas have been busy battering the festive favourite in the lead up to Christmas.
The owners of Nottinghamshire takeaways Bestwood Fisheries and the Jolly Fryer have sent customers wild with their 12-inch pork sausages.
And this year, they’ve upped the ante even further by releasing an epic Monster Box that tastes of Christmas dinner.
The gut-busting feast is comprised of a foot-long battered sausage, chips, giant Yorkshire pudding, doner kebab meat and gravy.
Antoni told Nottinghamshire Live: "If all the sausages were laid end to end it would reach my brother's shop. Everyone loves them.”
He continued: "We sold around 2,000 battered pigs in blankets last year.
“That was at the door as we weren't allowing people in the shop so people weren't seeing them in the cabinet and asking 'ooh what's that?'
"Being able to see them definitely helps."
Customers can buy the festive favourite with chips and gravy for £5.99, or add a Yorkshire pudding and it's £6.95.
To go the whole hog, the Monster Box is priced £7.99.
Because "everyone is struggling" the prices have stayed the same as last year even though the cost of bacon has rocketed.
Customer Charlotte Brown, 31, of Top Valley, has never tried one before but she said: "It sounds interesting – I would try it."
Her friend Paris Reiv, 26. who lives in the city centre, added: "It's a good Christmas treat. We always come here. We love the fresh food and there's always good customer service as well."
Richard Betteridge, 40, of Top Valley, has sampled them previously. He said: "They are amazing. It's everything… pigs in blankets and Christmas.”
