Being Scottish in my family way back and a former chef who not only made haggis but prepare a number of Robby Burn's Night Dinners, while the one had some of the ingredients, this is more of an accurate one.
We used ground lamb and beef, to make it moist, steel cut oats, sauteed chopped onions, and the offal, can be liver, kidneys, heart, suet is not commonly used, salt and pepper, spices like nutmeg, cloves or allspice.
At one time you would find it in a sheeps stomach, now a days we used a piece of beef casing, it is cheaper and there are not alot of sheeps parts laying around, once the mixture is ready you put into the casing and poach it in lamb stock or a combination of lamb and beef.
Serve it with Mashed Potato's and Turnip's or as in Scotland there called Bashed Neeps and Tateys, gravy is not commonly served, the addressing of the haggis done by the telling of a Burn's Poem and scotch being poured on a display piece.
If you can ever attend a Burn's Night Dinner in your town, it is quite a night of fun, January 25th is the bards birthday, keep a look out for a dinner you can attend.

No, it's the giblets and boiled lungs stuffed into the stomach.
