Ulster Fry at Carrickfergus Castle | Hairy Bikers Food Tour Of Britain | S1 E9

Two wheels, one mission: define the true taste of Antrim. The Hairy Bikers hit Belfast and beyond to chase the fry that locals swear by. From St George’s Market treasures to the ramparts of Carrickfergus Castle, Si and Dave zero in on what makes an Ulster fry unique: hot-off-the-griddle soda bread and potato farls. Along the coast they chew over dulse straight from the rocks, meet a seaweed forager with surprising tips, and discover why Lough Neagh’s eels and local spuds are legendary. Back on land, a potato masterclass with Robin Cherry unlocks roastie crunch secrets and a silky dauphinoise twist, while a slow-cooked shin of beef brings the gravy you won’t see coming. Then it’s a high-stakes cook-off in Belfast as chef Niall McKenna plates John Dory, hand-dived scallops and a mussel nage that turns heads. Who captures Antrim on a plate? Watch to find out and ride along for the flavours you’ll want to cook tonight. #HairyBikers #UlsterFry #CountyAntrim #Belfast #IrishFood #Seaweed #FoodTravel
