Six quid for 2 pounds of tripe sounds a bit dear to me. You should look for a slaughterhouse that'll sell you whole unwashed tripes (15 to 25 pound weight usually?) or get to know someone who works at a slaughterhouse.

I buy waste from butchers who slaughter their own animals and from a chicken plant I used to work for. Lamb necks and ribs free, chicken necks 5 euro for 10 kilo box, beef hearts fiver each, pig hearts a euro, minced trims 3 euro a kilo etc. etc. etc.

Other way round mate

I've asked a few butchers and they all say the same thing "there's no butchering in it anymore son it all comes in like this" I don't know if it's because I'm not rural enough and everyone round here is a tart or what but I'm always on the hunt to get anything cheaper so I won't give up
