FARMERS behind a popular Herefordshire crisp brand have teamed up with a local burger favourite to create a new limited-edition menu item.
Two Farmers Crisps has joined forces with Hereford's Beefy Boys to launch a burger inspired by its Bullshot flavour, a lightly spiced crisp with a hint of Herefordshire beef.
The new burger has been built around the crisps themselves and features Bullshot mayonnaise, bacon, American cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, onion and lettuce.
Explaining the inspiration behind the collaboration, a spokesperson for the Beefy Boys said: "The flavour's based on a Bullshot, an old-school Bloody Mary made with beef.
"We loved it so much it's in the mayo too."
The burger is available across November only.

Two Farmers was founded by Herefordshire potato growers Sean Mason and Mark Green, who came up with the idea for the business after meeting for a pint.
Based at a farm in Peterstow, near Ross-on-Wye, the company grows, harvests, stores and packs its own potatoes on site, helping to cut food miles. The business is also known for using 100 per cent compostable crisp packets, becoming the first brand in the UK to do so.
Mr Green, a second-generation farmer, had long wanted to put Herefordshire on the map with a home-grown crisp brand, while Mr Mason drew on his experience as a potato merchant to help develop the business.
The company has expanded its range to include flavours such as salt and cider vinegar, Hereford Hop cheese and onion, Herefordshire sausage and mustard, Herefordshire sauce, and woodland mushroom and wild garlic.
