Cochran is best known for his triumphant wins on the BBC’s Great British Menu. And also his London restaurant, 12:51 which draws on his mixed heritage to create some of the city’s most innovative cooking.
After the success of previous pop-up at El Perro Negro for the launch of his Sauce Shop x 12:51 Scotch Bonnet Chilli Jam last November, James Cochran is returning to his favourite Glasgow burger joint for the launch of an exclusive limited edition collaboration festive burger.

With buttermilk fried chicken, Sauce Shop x 12:51 scotch bonnet jam, parsnip and truffle sauce, bacon stuffing crumb, crispy chicken skin and shoestring potatoes.. This is something that burger fans will not want to miss!
El Perro Negro will also launch their new Chistmas cocktail menu at the pop-up. Featuring a festive twist on the classic Old Fashioned with Havana Club Cuban Spiced Rum and notes of chocolate orange.
Speaking of the upcoming event, James Cochran said: “I had an absolute blast when we took over the Perro kitchen last year, so a return visit was a no-brainer! My dad is from Glasgow and grew up in Govan, so it’s always great to come back to the city he calls home!”
El Perro Negro Founder, Nick Watkins spoke of his excitement about the takeover: “It’s brilliant to collaborate with James again! The burger is another winner and we know that our customers are going to go mad for it! Get booked in quickly to avoid disappointment!”
