Has there ever actually been a thread about pies?!
Discussion
I know they are mass produced in a big factory at Syston, Leicestershire, and I would hate to think what goes into them 
but I love Pukka pies, available at every chippy 
Had a very nice game pie yesterday, from our local deli'.
My very own seafood pie, as sampled by a few PH'ers, is pretty good too, modesty permitting.

Here you are, a recipe for the best meat and taty pie bar none.
Boil up the meat in a mix of water, some oxo stck cubes, brown sauce, worcester sauce, tabasco, bay leaf and mixed herbs with sliced onions. When its cooked drain the meat, and save the liquor, put the meat into the tray and tear it up into really small bits, almost like mince, then chill it. It will sort of 'set' into the tray.
Cook the potatoes, but dont overcook them, and scoop onto the top of the meat, thicken the meat cooking liquor and pour a little over the top of the potatoes, cover with a nice thick and very short pastry and egg wash, and bake for about 45 minutes in a fairly slow oven.
Serve with a little of the gravy poured over the pie and well diluted mint sauce on the obligatory mushy peas.
Bloody delicious.
