Thread Name: Lyr Add: The Great Meat Pie
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: The Great Meat Pie
The Denby Dale Pie that went sour had to be buried in the woods. The chef, having realised that he might be in a touch of bother(!)legged it before the discovery was made. Denby Dale has a long tradition of making huge pies, the latest being for the millenium. Around the walls of the Denby Dale Pie Hall (a community building where I've danced at many ceilidhs)are murals depicting the previous bakes. There is a book about the pies on sale at the Tolson Memorial Museum in Huddersfield, but I don't have details of author, publisher etc. to hand.

I look forward to the first vegetarian pie :-)
