What is your favourite pie?

[JumboJET]

I have no problem admitting that I do like a steak pie from Todders.

Also my local boozer, the Manor House Maltby, does an excellent steak and ale pie. 

What is your favourite pie? And why is it your favourite?

Happy Friday, BigJumbo.

Todders? That word has been banned on here.

A no nonsense Scotch Pie was always my favourite.

It's my favourite because it's simple, but effective. Bilin' Het!

When I lived in Dubai I used to get frozen Scotch Pies from the local shop and would eat them at the weekend watching the fitba. 

Now I'm a poof and don't eat meat. So I guess I'd have to go for a Macaroni Pie nowadays. Shite.  

Happy Friday to you too BigJumbo.

I made a brilliant Jamie Oliver Steak Guiness and Cheese pie, fucking lovely it was!

If it's a bought pie the Steak pie from the Sea Salt and Sole chipper is ace.

Waitrose do a nice asparagus pie. Very tasty but makes your pee pee smell.

Pat Nevin was on Off The Ball one week and told a story about when he dined at Gordon Ramsay's restaurant. He ordered a bottle of wine and when it arrived there was a drawing of a woman on the label that was identical to his wife. He said he couldn't believe how much this drawing looked like his wife. 

Quick as a flash, Tam Cowan replied with 'I had the same once in a supermarket, but it was a box of Sugar Puffs'.

Sorry to derail the thread Jumbo. Just wanted to tell that story. 

I also used to like a chicken and mushroom pie back in the day. But not as much as a Scotch pie. 

[sigh]

An often underrated pie is a tattie beaner - scotch pie with mash on top with a smattering of beans - dont see them very often nowadays.

Had a steak and mealie pie the other day, lovely.

I still remember Cowan when it was the Queen Mum’s 99th birthday and she was having a 99 ice cream cone to celebrate,  he said I wonder what she did 30 years ago.

As an aside once bought a pie supper from Golden Fry on Holburn Street, which was boggin'.

When walking home noticed an open window on a ground floor flat on Union Grove. 

Said pie was lobbed through said gap, much to the surprise, and annoyance, of the flat's incumbents.

Now you tell me min.

Yep it wasn't great, which was probably assisted by the fact that I was pished.

Loved a steak and gravy pie.  Used to get a crackin one from A1 butchers near Berryden.  Had a chuckle at the comments mentioning the Golden Grease.  hadn't heard that for a while.  That place and the Kiwi were the two worst chippers in Aberdeen.

Still never had macaroni and cheese?

A place up here does a beef curry topped with salt & chilli chips.  Also does a chilli beef nacho one.

Both on my list to try.

In the early nineties I had a scotch pie at Easter road. We lost, Rico got sent off that's all I remember about the game. But this pie was a thing of beauty. The fat oozing out of it covered the lower half of my face. Quite peppery, no discernible meat content. Brilliant.
