After reading this article about a butcher's in North Yorkshire, we decided we must go out there one day to sample some of these delicious-sounding pies. So yesterday we had a trip to Brompton specially to go to Glaves Butchers and try one of the pies for ourselves (and also to stock up on some meat and sausages).
We bought a couple of Barnsley chops (not often seen around here) and some pork and red onion marmalade sausages, but the highlight was the pork pie! We bought one pie each, initially to take home and have with mustard for tea, but, as they were still hot, we decided we would eat them outside the shop. A good decision!
This was the first time I'd eaten hot pork pie, I usually have them cold from the supermarket, with their rubbery, gristly fillings! But this was something else! Lovely, golden perfect pastry encasing delicious, hot pink chunks of pork and oozing liquid jelly. I have never tasted a pork pie as good as this!
This is one shop we will definitely visit again!
