Pies!

[Lyri]

If you put a meat and potato pie near me, I will choke you to death with it. For some reason in my youth I found those things disgusting, one day I liked them and then next I could no longer stand them.

However there is nothing like a good steak and ale pie with thick warm gravy and chips.

Always blow on the pie!

Shame you didn't bother to look at us Kiwis, Kiwis eat a total of roughly 68 million pies a year. You think you Brits are kings of pies, Ha! compared to us you are rank armatures.
Take a look:

You Brits don't even seem to have a wiki page dedicated to your pies. So Sad

Still gotta admit meat pies are way better than fruit ones and I feel sorry for the poor Americans that have yet to discover the joy of a good hot meat pie. A life without pies is a very sad life indeed.

 

[game-lover]

The meat pies actually look yummy. As an American, I wasn't sure about it. Sounded odd.

But the images... yes, quite appetizing to look at.

Someone just give me a damn sausage roll...

 

[FamoFunk]

Awesome thread is still going.

For dinner tonight, I have cooked the humble Cottage Pie:

Don't even come at me with a Shepard's Pie. Take that shit away, Cottage is where it's at.

i throughly enjoy a good sausage roll, with Tomato sauce.

but Aussie Sausage rolls taste alot better old chap.

Daystar I love your threads, they are so true!
Pies are in fact pure awesome in pastry. Every-time I make someone a pie at work, be it Steak and Ale, Game Pie or the new and improved Chicken, Bacon and Leek Pie, I think to myself; that customer gets it.

Where do you work? Becaus Chicken, Bacon and Leek sounds good!

I work in a small village pub in the south of Englishland. It's a pretty nice place actually, good beers, great food (/ego) and some lovely lady barmaids. What more could you ask for?

 

[Bernzz]

These threads only serve to make me very hungry.

Curse you Daystar, you teen heartthrob you.

I support this thread. Pies (and pasties, sausage rolls, etc.) fucking rock.

 

[Guffe]

Your British pie is actually good.
I'm a Finn so when we say pie it can be a load of different shit.
Basically the same thing but tit looks a bit different.

 

[DionysusSnoopy]

Right time to head to the nearest Greggs/butchers for a pie.
NomNomNomNomNom

 

[IckleMissMayhem]

Am I the only one who thinks pasties and pastries are different to pies? All are equally nom-able though...

...Oh gods... That's like, more than a cubic foot of meat and pastry in there. Almost as bad as the "Hulk-burger" I've seen in an Aberystwyth pub-4500 calories in it!

By "bad", you mean "good" right?

Cheaters

I love that there's other stuff on the plate, on the off chance that you're still feeling hungry afterwards.

Haha, cheaters or fucking geniuses? The chips they do at the pub are fucking amazing. To be fair, Keswick is in the middle of the Lake District, a place where people go on really long mountain hikes... The people who order the cow pie have likely earned it after a hard day's walking. I know that's what I'll have done before eating that monstrosity.[/quote]Bow down before me, mere mortals, for I have consumed both these fine dishes! (Hulk burger whilst wasting two years of my life studying modern european languages at UWA, KCP whilst working as an outdoors instructor, unsurprisingly enough in the Lakes!!)

no, I didn't clear either plate

 

[Grouchy Imp_v1legacy]

This thread has inspired me to ditch tonight's pasta effort and instead make the glorious creation that is ...

Spoiler: Chicken and leek pie

Ok, it's now official: my shift cannot be over quick enough...

 

[Shoggoth2588]

The best I can hope for here in the US would be a chicken pot-pie and most of those taste like ass. Listen OP...it was the sausage rolls that did it for me so...can I stay with you for a month or two? Just long enough to apply for citizenship? Please? The only pie I'll miss would be pumpkin and honestly, I'll have forgotten about that by my first pasty. I don't care that the US is turning into a military state: we've always been one devoid of Branston Pickle and, decent pies.

This image alone inspired more love in my soul than my last two relationships.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Spoiler: No, no, no. You forgot the best pie of all.

Pinkie Pie.

In all seriousness, I've always been a fan of pie, even with my horrible case of being American. Apparently I should take a trip over to Britain and get myself schooled on what a real pie is. I think I'll do that. I've always been envious of you British folk and your accents.

Oh, hell no, there will be no ponies in one of my threads.

I'm visually mincing her up and sticking her in a pie.

I'm not a fan of horse meat, but fuck it, gravy fixes everything.

Dare to even think that a second time and you'll think the Blitz was a walk in the park after Sunday church.

Shepherds Pie is the best. I made a dish of it the other day, Sooooooo good. I have to mix my peas in. I'd cook with them in the pie but only my dad likes them, the others like corn. So we just do plain and do the veggies separate.

What ever happened to love and tolerance?

Or does that dogma only hold water when it's convenient?

Pony pies for everyone!

 

[IckleMissMayhem]

Is this thread seriously attempting to assert that British food isn't shit? Because that's a big call to make.

In any case, I think you can put down us Australians as big proponents of the pie as well. We got that from you guys.

As did the other type of UK rejects (I jest, I jest!!). But they won't admit it. And they bastardised the honour of the humble English pie by only ever making sweet versions.

It's okay. They're still young.

They'll learn the error of their ways, else we beat it out of them.

Ahh pies. Bringing back fond memories of camping trips that must always be ended with pie and chips in a pub, cold winter days in the snow with a nice steak and ale and the wonderful parties with platters weighted to snapping with delicious bits of porky goodness. There is but one important rule that one must always obey in regards to pies, you must have Brown Sauce, anything else would be blasphemy. Also I am very pleased you decided to include the wonders of sausage rolls and pasties into the great pie family as I know many people who think they should be excluded.

In other news: I have been waiting for one of these for a while now, excellent choice Daystar.

 

[Bvenged]

Pork Pies are DISGUSTING - but aside from that...

Meat Pies - They Goooood. They soooo Gooood.

Dude - your British Foods' threads are brilliant. The next one better be on Pub Grub.

If it's pastry wrapped meat, I consider it a type of pie.

Not for people who cut up ponies and put them in Pies. Would you love and tolerate someone who cuts your best friend up and served them to ya. Interestingly enough Pinkie Pie cuts up ponies and bakes them into cupcakes, in a fanfic. So please don't be like Cupcakes, it's very grimdark.
