Good news Pie Man........

[blackpuddinmonster]

Ok, I'm going to end the thread with a real Wigan delicacy...
1 x Meat and Potato pie, preferably from Galloways or Muffin Man..
1 x Barm cake (or Bap, Barm Joe, Muffin etc as they're known elsewhere)

Put Pie on buttered barm cake. generous dollop of HP Brown Sauce on top of the Pie. Eat..

Note, if on a diet, only use half the pie...

Another vote here..:thup:
Like them with a meat as well..

Beat me to it! Wigan butties rule. Still have one every Saturday. What about Pooles?

I loved Pooles chicken and mushroom pies, but then they shut most of the shops and started supplying Supermarkets instead.. They lost their soul

Stop it your making me hungry!!

Surprised at your choice of Galloways, never rated them.
I'm intrigued by the sound of Muffin man though.Sounds like it could be worth a detour if I'm working over than way.
Where can I find him?

Btw..
Best- steak & kidney
Worst- Butter pie (yes Butter) only found in and around Preston lancs. A waste of Pastry :angry:

I only chose those 2 as they were the shops that were in Beech Hill when I was growing up.. The absolute best pies were from a little bakery just outside Platt Waz.. I think it was called Twiss Bakery.. I could have lived forever only eating Twiss plate steak pies with chips and gravy.. And when I say forever, I obviously mean till I was 47, when the blocked arteries would have done for me..

And fully agree with the "Butter pies".. One of the main reasons that I could never live anywhere near Preston.. They're an abomination of a pie...:angry:

Scots. preferably Aulds

Wonder if they have changed any since I was making them in the Aulds factory 37 years ago in the summer of '78!

We were allowed to eat anything we liked while on shift but it was a sacking offence to smuggle anything out the door. Smart policy that everyone stuck to.

My own favourite is my own home made steak pie which is mighty fine if I do say so myself.

Dave, you need a Johnston's pie (Toxteth) and a Lings fish toast (also toxteth) to complete your list.

Bell me when your next in the area for directions.:thup:
