“In the beginning God created cows. Now the cows were plentiful and covered the earth. And God said “let there be Beef”. And there was Beef. “
A few years later (2010) Bel Shapiro left her job to go it alone. She set up The Bell & Brisket with the intention of championing the classic, and old fashioned combination of salt beef, pickles & mustard, served street food style.
Inspired by stories from her Dad’s visits to Blooms in his city boy days, she set about developing a menu that respected the traditional delivery of salt beef, but gave it her own, London twist. Focusing on not just the beef, but the pickles that crunch alongside it and the beer to wash it all down with.
Now serving tantalising beefy wonders from various markets & events, The Bell & Brisket is forging its way amongst the burgeoning street food revolution, and is part of the Kerb street food collective. You can also find us every Sunday at Harringay Market.
The Bell & Brisket trailer or gazebo can be hired for private events and parties. See our Event Hire page for more information.
Fantastic stuff Bel! Could you do me a gluten free one!
Love it Bel, all the pic’s look great & I’m loving the horse box idea, my only worry is where you’ll park it? I’m my father’s daughter, he’ll be worried about the parking too when I tell him your plan.
Don’t worry Linds I’m already “in discussion” with Haringey about getting it a permit…Otherwise I’ll stick it outside your gaff! xx
You are the first blogger I’m following ! Saw you via Lindsay @ReddeskVA…..and I love salt beef
You follow me I follow you! Thank you! x
Aren’t you all cute.x
Bel I think you need off street parking someone might nick all your salt beef.
Linds…seriously…tell your dad it’ll all be ok.
Alright I’ll tell him x
All very exciting young Bel! – I think the horse box adventure is a much better idea than some other thoughts you was thunking! I’m looking forward to the tales – could I perhaps turn you into one of my strange little characters?

Gen, I’d be honored to be one of your “strange little characters”… I reckon I have all the qualifications.! xxx
