Thread Name: What is your folkie meat pie recipe?
Subject: RE: What is your folkie meat pie recipe?
Dungworth is real enough, if you visit Google maps you'll find it about 5 miles WNW of Sheffield (UK) and it is also one of the several homes of South Yorkshire Carols. You will have seen numerous threads about those, so I won't bore you.

As for meat pies I'm partial to the locally-made pork pies we get round here, served at cellar temperature with a bit of pickle, salad, and some decent bread. I'll even take that without the beer, but it is better with.

One habit I could never abide when I lived in W Yorks was the quiz-night (and similar) habit of ruining a good pork pie by heating it then serving it swimming in a bowl of unmushy mushy peas laced with glutinous (fake) beef gravy and acetic acid. I shudder just thinking of it, but many folks lapped it up.
