Pies

Do like a Pukka steak pie, but an old boss from Manchester introduced me to Hollands meat pies and they were very good - just hard to find!

Also had a lovely steak and cheese pie at a rugby match in New Zealand
 
I like a good old fashioned corned beef pie from a good old fashioned pub. With chips, peas (garden, not mushy (rank)) and gravy.

Wales mate ... they have a thing they bizarrely call a "Pastie pie" which is a corned beef based pie ... had some cracking home made ones in pubs

Had a pasty yesterday on the way home from work. Local bakery does it’s own, pretty damn good as it goes.

Do like a steak and kidney pudding, not had one for years.

One of the best pies I ever had was in East Anglia, suet based steak and kidney cooked in a clay pot, it was superb.

Looked a bit like this...

Yeah, my Mrs does a fine pasty pie. Odd name really?

I think in that area the default pasty is corned beef and potato and, as this version is a pie, they just call it pasty pie. Instead of corned beef and potato pie.

It can't be both ffs!!

One thing I don’t like about pies is that you can call a pie a pie even when the entire contents aren’t surrounded by pastry.
 
Tricky if driving, but meal of the gods
