The Pub Cob: A Crusty Classic<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is a specific kind of magic found in a traditional British pub: the sound of a crackling fire, the amber glow of a pint, and the centerpiece of any true Pub Lunch<\/strong>\u2014the Crusty Round Roll<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Affectionately known across the UK as a cob, barm, or roll<\/em>, this isn’t your average soft supermarket bun. This is a sturdy, rustic bread designed for the boldest of accompaniments. It is the architectural foundation for thick slabs of sharp mature Cheddar, tangy Branston pickle, and slices of salt-cured ham.<\/p>\n\n\n
