I go to a lot of cricket matches during the summer, and sort of live on Pies for 5 months, so I am a bit of an expert.
My favourite at the moment is Chicken and Mushroom, what is your favourite. Alanthemanc...... just ate a Steak one.mmmm

    I am a late-comer to the joys of the humble pie. I dislike any that involve gravy (Tony reckons that tomatoes are Satan's testicles, I hold that gravy is the produce of said testes) but I do like a good veggie pie, and ones with chicken are OK as long as the devil's juice is not involved.

    Danny Baker once did a magic half an hour on 606 (when it was a good phone in) about songs etc with 'Pie' in the title, viz.

    The Pie Who Came in from the Cold.
    The Pie Who Loved Me.
    Pies and Dolls.
    I Only Have Pies for You.

    I love cheese and onion.... sadly they don't do many gluten free pies :roll: And yes, I've tried making my own but gluten free flower generally makes pastry like cardboard!

    My OH's chicken and mushroom (preferably cold).I prefer all my pies cold,they always seem to have more flavour and better texture...... :grin:
