PORK PIES | How It's Made

[@ThisUserIsDead]

I definitely appreciate a well made pork pie every once in a while. It's great to see that there are companies still making them by hand so you know that a lot of effort and love has been put in to making them. It's something that's becoming rare but is still appreciated in my opinion

[@Duros360]

You should always try to get them from a butcher, they are sublime when made properly

[@willygoat9390]

I like how Tony Hirst is enthralled in this segment. He genuinely seems to enjoy narrating this one because it's something he loves. It's very nice.

Thanks to this video I went on a hunt to find a restaurant near me that served pork pies. Just recently had my first pork pie and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED it.

[@Lex5576]

If we had those in the United States, I'd probably be eating the hell out of them. I recon these make a good working man's meal at lunch, since they're typically not heated.

[@beepthemeep12]

Yep. Picnic, work, all sorts of goodness

[@dansterc3038]

In NYC there's an excellent British food place called Meyer's of Keswick. It's so delicious.

[@roterex9115]

That is actually the origin of pies like this, a easily transportable meal for farmers or travellers.

[@Kazuo1G]

I've made homemade pork pies, and I gotta tell you, they are absolutely great with coleslaw and fries. (Also, they go well with Branston pickle.)

[@MauiWowieOwie]

I dunno, room temp meat doesn't sound appealing to me. Though I've never had one so who knows?

[@phbrinsden]

When I return to visit family in the U.K. this is high on the “things that I must have on the menu” while home. I especially like them with a dash of Branston pickle and a nice salad.

[@briangleason5597]

A dash? With a spot of tea?

[@Matt19matt19]

I'm not a fan of the jelly inside unless its bought when still warm and the jelly hasn't set. A lot of manufacturers realise a lot of people arent keen on the jelly so they reduce the amount they put in.

[@tsuchan]

My favourite pork pie is still warm. They're also nice cold, but they're a different dish, to eat with salad or something. But if eating it as a dinner, with potatoes etc... it has to be warmed. I think it can be warmed and eaten with self-respect intact.

[@trevorjones5625]

Nuke a pork pie for a few minutes then chop into 4 and add to mushy peas. Stunning meal. Perfect for cold winter evenings.

[@MUDWATCHER]

The video is well done and explains the individual steps of the production in a comprehensible way. 👍 I was completely unaware of the pork pie. The video made me very hungry. 🍽

Great video featuring smaller scale manufactured pies, no doubt from the proper 'Melton Mobray' designated area. If anyone wonders who makes the best large scale produced pork pie, then 'Pork Farms' is the first name that springs to mind. Unlike some supermarket-bought pies, theirs contain no colouring added to the meat, so it looks grey instead of an artificial pink.

I’m gonna try and make this for Christmas this year. One of advantages of living in a big city is that they still have butcher shops.

Butcher shops aren't really a big city thing. If anything they're more common in small towns and villages.

Some Coles supermarkets in Australia have recently started selling these in their deli section's self serve area. The only other places that I know of where you could purchase them from are British and Irish butchers who own and operate their own business.

Was munching a big pork pie whilst watching this , can’t beat them.

[@timmyangeltlc4888]

Those seem kinda like a pasty. Pie dough rolled out, stuffed with meat and potatoes or veggies, sealed shut, brushed with butter and baked. Pasties freeze well and can be rewarded when needed. Quite popular both in the Olds of mining and even now.

[@rin_etoware_2989]

given that pasties are also a kind of meat pie, that's just to be expected.

The lard melts, not dissolves, the salt dissolves.

Incorrect. Lard consists of long-chain fatty acids that consist of a water soluble polar head. Lard dissolves in the same way that salt dissolves.
