You'll be telling us your steak well done and have it with ketchup too. 

 

Do you have a bad hair piece and a orange complexion 

Haha, the pie is basically ground meat inside a crust. It's a "special occasions" meal but it's not meant to be fancy. Ketchup is an acceptable condiment to put on it, unlike with steak.

25% have voted for kidney in a pie. Its worse than the referendum result this.

Where are the Cornish Pasties? Not the shite you buy in Greggs but proper ones -

 

Authentic Cornish pasties are great and I could live off them, but they’re not pies.

Had a Lamb & Minted Pea Pie over the weekend

It was sensational

No beef? I’d struggle without it. What’s the reason Arthur? Other than being a meff that is.

 

chicken and pork based pies are good but for me nothing beats a beef pie with lots of gravy.

 

Chicken balti is just feels wrong in a pie. Curry is great, Pie is great but I don’t need a fusion. What’s next Kung Pao Chicken Pie?

I saw people’s Brain melting with CJD on the telly, decided there was no chance I wanted any of that. Not touched the stuff since.

Bay of Islands rep. I love it up there, beautiful part of the country. Did your cruise take you via Napier? We get a lot of the big cruise ships visiting the bay. 

The cruise did go on to the likes of Wellington , Napier & Tauranga I believe , but we got off at Auckland and flew to Sydney from there. Me and the wife loved Bay Of Islands and we are hatching a plan to do a fly-drive of North Island over the next few years.

Good stuff. Let me know if you need any advice or info that you can't find online and I'll see what I can do to help.

Yeah, not really a pie but I spent a fair chunk of my childhood living in Cornwall. Pasties are better than any pie mentioned here, and by a long shot.

Your average Australian pie is minging. Not for nothing are they (and sausages) known as mystery bags. I bought a 'chunky beef' (as opposed to the usual watery mince)  one in passing through Tenterfield a while back. Drove a few miles down the road and took a bite. The fucking meat was rotten, literally.

Almost invariably sold with soggy pastry.

I didn’t include Scouse pie, as I can’t be doing with pies that don’t have a pastry base.

The ones at the match have a pastry base, as do the ones that I make at home. The only problem is that they don't lend themselves to being smothered in gravy.

 

A really good steak and ale pie is a thing of beauty, but so many that you get are full of gristly meat which puts me off, hence my going for the chicken & mushroom - a  safe  option.

 

Oh and Tony, you can eat a pork pie hot if it's freshly made - quite a revelation. I did a pie-making class at this place last year. In fact after reading this thread  I'm going to get my lunch from there today  https://holborndiningroom.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/pie-room-take-away-menu.pdf

Yeah, I remember the pies at the match, so hot that it could take 45 minutes to eat one!

 

I’ve had shop bought pork pies that were still warm, but not often. I much prefer them cold. I like my food either piping hot or cold, no inbetween.

Agreed.  I'd quite happily live on pasties.

The last time I was in Cornwall, I had two, sometimes three, pasties a day, every day for two weeks.
