I live in tiny village in the South West of France. Following your directions, I brought a little English culture to the locals, much to their delight. In fact, the local butcher wants to start cooking pork pies to sell.
I live near Versailles. One of my dreams has been to find a butcher or baker prepared to make pork pies, steak and kidney pies, sausage rolls, cheese and onion pies, steak and onion pies, proper bacon, proper sausages, pasties. There used to be an English butcher in Normandy who made all these things and would send them as far as Paris. Sadly he must have retired or gone bust.
@@CulinaryExploration Sorry for the late answer. They love the pork pies. The pastry went down a treat. People in the village ask for the recipe. Thank you so much.
Man! I was raised in the UK until I was 22 and then emigrated to the US. Watching this just makes me drool because you just cannot get a decent pork pie over here and that one looks absolutely fantastic!
i wish we had more restaurants that served british food. granted it's not fancy or spiced up. it's just wholesome, filling comfort food. pork pies could easily replace hamburgers or tacos for an on the go meal. they're probably healthier anyway.
I noticed that. I hadn't really heard of pork pies until I started watching food and travel shows (they occured to me a concept, but it's not the same). I must admit, I'm shocked we don't have any pie shops around. Lots of sandwich places, most grocery stores even sell their own. But no lunch pies.
Top recipe! I made this for my father-in-law who is a traditional pie lover on his 60th birthday. Only difference is I added a little sprinkling of dried sage and chives to the pork stock then served it up with some homemade pickle and English mustard. He loved it so much he demanded that I walk the mother-in-law through the recipe. (I just gave her the link to your vid so you got full credit mate!) 👌👌👍👍
@@haku-jin Thanks for being rude. I described what I saw. Forty years ago cooking was a daily chore. Now people order online. When online ordering was not possible during Covid, people did try cooking for a change.

Congratulations for this brilliant video. I am an ex pat living in Florida USA who was missing traditional pork pies. I have to admit that I never missed much else about the UK but now I don't even have to miss the good old pork pie.
Pleased you enjoyed it. I live in Greece and really missed them so thought I'd put a video together. I guess its a bit much for someone who can walk out the door and buy one, but great for ex pats. If you give it a whirl let me know how you get on :)
When I leave the UK eventually (it's my life's dream to move to somewhere in Scandinavia), this kind of food is what I'll miss most. People shit on British cuisine but it's the simple stuff like this that'll always remind me of home :)
Moved to the UK from Canada and I fucking LIVE for the food here man. People are just ignorant and it's a stereotype. Pork pie, pasties, sausage and mash, roast potato, cream tea, rhubarb and custard, sticky toffee pudding, mince pies, don't even get me started on curry. I'm sure some folks will say curry isn't British food, but what the west thinks of as curry is every bit British. Just the way "Chinese food" is from San Fransisco.
@@Dave-hu5hr you might not think of San Fran, but nonetheless that's where "Chinese food" was invented, in the way we understand that term in the west. Similarly, chicken tikka masala was invented in Scotland.
Hubby and I went to Scotland 2 years ago. We ate many meat pies everywhere we went and rated them. Some were ho hum, but others were so good I cried because it was all gone. In Michigan we like our pasties, the Cornish copper miners introduced them and they rock.
I didn't realise the Cornish made it to Michigan. I'd only heard about them migrating to Mexico to the silver mines. They introduced the Cornish pasty there, too, although I believe the version that the Mexicans adopted into their own cuisine is a lot more spicy than the original! Apparently the families of the Mexican and Cornish miners still have very close bonds even now.
I have attempted making pork pie previously to seeing this video, previous attempts were so so but hard going, mincing the meat, mincer forever clogging, using springform tins but, cooking the pies in the tins doesn’t quite work. Now your recipe and method are something very different and much easier to make and turn out fabulous, I have made 4 x4 batches of these now and given some to friends, their comments have been truly amazing, one lady who is quite an accomplished cook of the old school rates them as the best she and husband have had, especially the texture of the meat, so much so I have sent her the recipe. I have made them exactly as per your recipe and method, I can only agree with my my friends. :: better than any commercially made pie ::. Excellent Thank You
Started making these today; but as my meat mixture, I am using ground deer(venison), a can of Grant's black pudding, and a can of Grant's haggis. I have a bit of gelatinous chicken stock that is flavoured with some coriander, turmeric, salt, and paprika My pastry is cooling in the fridge now, so I will be making the pies in a bit. If anyone is interested, I'll let y'all know how they turn out.
@@CulinaryExploration Just checked my dough, and I thought I'd let it cool a bit more, then I'll roll them out. We have the same spring forms that you use in the video, so hopefully, they will turn out like yours. I'll keep you posted!!!
@@CulinaryExploration Just got done baking them. We ended up with 4 spring forms, and one pie that my wife made. The ones in the spring forms got the jellied chicken stock, and put in the fridge for 48hrs. The one my wife made was my supper, with some piccalilli and a few pickled onions. I must say they were AWESOME!!! Not bad for a backwoods boy from South Carolina, if I do say so myself!!!
Brother, I’ve watched at least 20 pork pie vids to find the best one and yours is by far the easiest and simplest to follow, I’m making mine tomorrow with a twist, I’m cooking them in the smoker low n slow to add some flavour, my left over pork shoulder will also be smoked to make pulled pork, then I’ll make pork pies out of that too, can’t wait
I, Nephi, having been born of goodly parents, therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father; and having seen many afflictions in the course of my days, nevertheless, having been highly favored of the Lord in all my days; yea, having had a great knowledge of the goodness and the mysteries of God, therefore I make a record of my proceedings in my days. Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians. And I know that the record which I make is true; and I make it with mine own hand; and I make it according to my knowledge". 1 Nephi 1-3 Hello friends, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The verses above are the first three verses in The Book of Mormon. I know this probably isn't the most ideal place to talk about religion but I really do want you to know that God loves you. You may not love Him or care about Him at all, but He still will continue to love you. You are a beloved son or daughter of God. He knows you personally and He truly and deeply desires for your happiness. He loves everyone who has every lived on this earth, with a perfect equal love regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, faith and values and beliefs. The Lord loves you more than you can think or comprehend. "He inviteth them all to come unto him and partake of his goodness; and he denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female; and he remembereth the heathen; and all are alike unto God, both Jew and Gentile" 2 Nephi. He is our loving, caring Heavenly Father. We are literally His children and creations. When we were in the womb, he knew about us" Jerimiah 4:5. He knitted us and we were created in His image. I testify to you that you and I are not a mistake. He knows the very moment when we stand and when we sit. He is familiar with all our ways and knows us personally who we are. The hairs on our very head are numbered. God loved us so much, He sent His Only Begotten Son for us, that we may be able to return and dwell in the presence of God again. The Lord has not forgotten about us even when it feels like He has. He will never forsake us. When we are happy, He and His angels rejoice alongside us. When we are sad, He heals us and lifts us up from our trials. He has always been there for us. He has always been our loving, compassionate Heavenly Father and God. Will we always be His children and people? I testify to you that God lives and that Jesus is the Christ. Both love you exceedingly and rejoice when you are happy. They both love you so much. They love you with a love unfeigned. They will never ever stop doing good unto you. I know that The Book of Mormon is true. "And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost". Moroni 10:4 I promise and testify to you, that if you will read The Book of Mormon, ponder on its message and ask God if it is not true, you will come to know of its truthfulness, whether its true or not true. Remember my friends that God loves you with all his heart, might mind, soul and strength. He wants you to be happy. He knows what you are going through and dealing with right now. He desires for you to return back to Him. Unfortunately, He has been misrepresented and seen as a cruel and angry God who anticipates for us to slip and writes down every mistake we make waiting to punish us by those who do not know or know Him fully. My friends, God has stored many opportunities and blessings for you. He is incredibly eager and desires with all His heart to bless you abundantly. He wants you to live with Him again. He only wants the best for you and your well being. He wants to experience everlasting joy and indescribable happiness in this life and in the life to come. He wants you to partake of His goodness and come and follow Him. The Lord does not care how early or late you decide to come unto Him. I testify to you that if you have strayed and wondered off the path that there is hope in Jesus Christ, The Savior of the world. The Lord accepts those who come unto Him whether your early, late or just in time who desire to change. The Lord will accept you wholeheartedly and forgive you if you are willing to change. The Lord will welcome you and will always be ready to embrace you with open arms. The Lord will lift us up in our trials and use us to bless the lives of those around us if we are willing to change. If you desire to learn more, you are always welcome to visit comeuntochrist.org. There you will learn more about The Church of Jesus Christ and our core beliefs and values. If you have taken the time to read The Book of Mormon and this comment, thank you. It takes a huge leap of faith and a lot of courage to muster enough faith to read in the Book of Mormon and to believe in something in a personage that you may never see in this lifetime. Although we may not be able to see God and Jesus Christ in this life, I testify to you that they are real. They do truly exist. I promise you that if you will pray to know of their existence, you will come to know whether they exist or have been made up. You are my friends. The Lord loves you and despite all our weaknesses and shortcomings, he still loves us and will forgive us if we will humble ourselves before Him and diligently seek correction and do whatever is needed to repent. Remember that The Lord is always available to talk to through prayer 24/7. No question sounds too silly for Him. James wrote, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him" James 1:5. If you must know whether or not something is true or evil and deceptive, you can always pray to God. He will help you know what the truth is and what is not the truth. He will never be too busy to talk to. He will give you strength you need to overcome and conquer your temptations and will give you the strength you need to endure through your trials and afflictions. Paul said that The Lord will not give you temptations that you cannot resist, but that in your temptations, He will provide a way for you to resist, overcome and conquer them. He will provide a way. He wants to bless you and reward you abundantly. The Lord knows you and will not forget you. You are loved. You are utterly amazing. You have incredible potential. You are not forgotten or ever will be forsaken. You are special. You are unique. You are one of a kind. You have been reserved for this time and The Lord needs you on His side. It simply would not be the same without you. Thank you for your time.
Hi - have made 4 medium sized pork pies today following your recipe. Have never made hot water crust pastry before - easy. Thank you for the inspiration. Couldn't wait for them to cool and fill with gelatine, had to eat one tonight. They are delicious. You made it all look so easy and it was. Happy New Year.
Fantastic !!!!! It's good for a French to learn about traditional British cooking !!! I'm going to try this, it's a wonderful comfort food for this season !!! Thank U again !!!!
I live on the road and, one of the things I do to keep my meat lasting as long as possible is to make pies. Living a simple life, I have no fridge no oven (well, I do have a cast iron pot). One of the things I've been wanting to do for a while now, is make a decent pork pie (they don't sell them out here, Latvia). Looks like I've found the recipe! Thanks!!!
Ok folks, I here in CHCH, NEW ZEALAND, make my pork pies in Texas muffin tins. I use pastry from supermarket, the savory one, same as I use for Bacon and egg pie. Cut base at .150mm. Cut top at .105mm. My pie mix is pork, some bacon, mace, sage, pepper. Cook as per, they release from tins very well. Fill with pork trotters boiled down, after they have semi cooled. They freeze well, and at the large muffin size make a lovely meal ,with vegetables, or yes on its own. Too me the filling is the TASTE, and I get 12 pies knocked out so easy. I boiled up 6 pig trotters today and will make 12 +++ pies tomorrow or next day. Cheers to ALL, and have a great New year's. This to all 29th December 2021.
I've already commented about the video...really good. I've made a few now but I am useless at putting the pastry into the tin. After much thought I have found a solution. Cut the pastry and place the round pastry over the pie tin. Then, gently press the pastry in the middle and then pour ceramic balls onto the pastry. The weight of the balls pushes the pastry evenly against the sides. Fill to the top, gently push down and then pour out the balls. Works like a dream.
Can’t think of any other pie that even comes close to the delicious solid perfection of a well made pork pie! Great video, love the idea of butter pastry but I prefer the traditional lard.
Awesome your no nonsense approach was magic, you make a good tutor. & Your pastry is to die for. All butter mmmmm must say you are the first one I know to go down that route, I'm making three tomorrow from your instructions 👍👍
@ This is quite a way from traditional. Traditionally the pastry would definitely be lard not butter, the only seasoning would be salt and pepper and the pie would be hand raised, not using a springform. And obviously a syringe wouldn't have been used to get the jelly in lol. Looks really tasty and is definitely a pork pie, but why put traditional in the title?
As a pork pie aficionado I have to rate this video 9/10, very good you nailed it!. I tend to use 50/50 butter lard and also use 25% ground pork but that's just a preference.
No tats! Thanks! Makes watching this excellent tutorial easier. I've made about five rounds of pies as an amateur. I prefer lard, but that's really splitting hairs
I've got four of these moulds knocking around at home (loose bottom rather than springform, but I think they'll work too). I'm going to have a crack at this recipe tomorrow.
Love the channel mate, how about a video making Chelsea Buns ? You know the type that are light and fluffy and as tall as they are wide! Great video on sourdough, uncomplicated and no beards, tattoos, hipsters, and moostaches dragging it out ! Keep up the good work.
What a great video! This is something my wife and I really want to make, we even sent to England for wooden moulds! I got some really helpful info from your video! Klaus
Fantastic video and brilliantly explained. Can't wait to try it. Normally i grind the meat, but i think the hand cut is a much better idea., though not sure about the fat from the belly. I might do a hybrid version with minced belly pork and hand diced shoulder if the fat is too much.
That looks delicious! I've never had a pork pie despite the fact that my grandmother was born in the UK. When I saw that stainless steel device I thought that a proctological exam was happening.

Thanks for using metric! I hate having to use imperial measurements. Thanks for the video and recipe, too, I might have to make this, I do love a nice pork pie 😋
Agreed. It's time for the world to stop accepting movies that use the Imperial system. Time we killed it forever. Pork pie looks divine - perfect for a picnic.
Hi, I really enjoyed watching this video; awesome intro at start! Really well put together and showcasing a really humble but very delicious dish. A great watch, thank you 🙏🏻😋
I've seen you use that board for many things, dough, meats and veggies. But in every shot it is looks like to be in pristine condition. My question is how do you maintain that wonderful sheen on your cutting board? I don't have one just yet and use a plastic one, but I've always wanted to own a high quality board. I'm a big fan of maintaining all the equipment and you seem to do a great job with it. Any tips would be great. Thanks for the video BTW, you have a new subscriber.

Living in Spain and we do miss pork pies so will certainly be trying these, they look amazing and a great easy to watch and learn video, thanks :)
Brother, I’ve watched at least 20 pork pie vids to find the best one and yours is by far the easiest and simplest to follow, I’m making mine tomorrow with a twist, I’m cooking them in the smoker low n slow to add some flavour, my left over pork shoulder will also be smoked to make pulled pork, then I’ll make pork pies out of that too, can’t wait
Awesome, let me know how you get on!
I bought a few store bought pies and they were tasteless, the whole family loved em, especially the fennel seed ones
Even Dicken's praised the pork pie. He wrote "it will sit atop anything you please and will do you no harm" (Great Expectations)
Absolutely love 'em!!
That's a nice snippet of info! Thank you!
"Sit atop anything"? Is that supposed to mean something like "it will go well with anything" or does it have some other meaning I'm not getting?
@@Serjo777 to my understanding yes.
I followed these instructions and made the most beautiful Pork Pies ever. Thanks for the tips.
Really pleased you found the recipe useful and thanks for the feedback :)
I, Nephi, having been born of goodly parents, therefore I was taught somewhat in all the learning of my father; and having seen many afflictions in the course of my days, nevertheless, having been highly favored of the Lord in all my days; yea, having had a great knowledge of the goodness and the mysteries of God, therefore I make a record of my proceedings in my days. Yea, I make a record in the language of my father, which consists of the learning of the Jews and the language of the Egyptians.
And I know that the record which I make is true; and I make it with mine own hand; and I make it according to my knowledge". 1 Nephi 1-3
Hello friends, I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. The verses above are the first three verses in The Book of Mormon. I know this probably isn't the most ideal place to talk about religion but I really do want you to know that God loves you. You may not love Him or care about Him at all, but He still will continue to love you. You are a beloved son or daughter of God. He knows you personally and He truly and deeply desires for your happiness. He loves everyone who has every lived on this earth, with a perfect equal love regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, faith and values and beliefs. The Lord loves you more than you can think or comprehend. "He inviteth them all to come unto him and partake of his goodness; and he denieth none that come unto him, black and white, bond and free, male and female; and he remembereth the heathen; and all are alike unto God, both Jew and Gentile" 2 Nephi. He is our loving, caring Heavenly Father. We are literally His children and creations. When we were in the womb, he knew about us" Jerimiah 4:5. He knitted us and we were created in His image.
I testify to you that you and I are not a mistake. He knows the very moment when we stand and when we sit. He is familiar with all our ways and knows us personally who we are. The hairs on our very head are numbered. God loved us so much, He sent His Only Begotten Son for us, that we may be able to return and dwell in the presence of God again. The Lord has not forgotten about us even when it feels like He has. He will never forsake us. When we are happy, He and His angels rejoice alongside us. When we are sad, He heals us and lifts us up from our trials. He has always been there for us. He has always been our loving, compassionate Heavenly Father and God. Will we always be His children and people?
I testify to you that God lives and that Jesus is the Christ. Both love you exceedingly and rejoice when you are happy. They both love you so much. They love you with a love unfeigned. They will never ever stop doing good unto you. I know that The Book of Mormon is true. "And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost". Moroni 10:4 I promise and testify to you, that if you will read The Book of Mormon, ponder on its message and ask God if it is not true, you will come to know of its truthfulness, whether its true or not true.
Remember my friends that God loves you with all his heart, might mind, soul and strength. He wants you to be happy. He knows what you are going through and dealing with right now. He desires for you to return back to Him. Unfortunately, He has been misrepresented and seen as a cruel and angry God who anticipates for us to slip and writes down every mistake we make waiting to punish us by those who do not know or know Him fully.
My friends, God has stored many opportunities and blessings for you. He is incredibly eager and desires with all His heart to bless you abundantly. He wants you to live with Him again. He only wants the best for you and your well being. He wants to experience everlasting joy and indescribable happiness in this life and in the life to come. He wants you to partake of His goodness and come and follow Him. The Lord does not care how early or late you decide to come unto Him. I testify to you that if you have strayed and wondered off the path that there is hope in Jesus Christ, The Savior of the world. The Lord accepts those who come unto Him whether your early, late or just in time who desire to change. The Lord will accept you wholeheartedly and forgive you if you are willing to change. The Lord will welcome you and will always be ready to embrace you with open arms. The Lord will lift us up in our trials and use us to bless the lives of those around us if we are willing to change.
If you desire to learn more, you are always welcome to visit comeuntochrist.org. There you will learn more about The Church of Jesus Christ and our core beliefs and values. If you have taken the time to read The Book of Mormon and this comment, thank you. It takes a huge leap of faith and a lot of courage to muster enough faith to read in the Book of Mormon and to believe in something in a personage that you may never see in this lifetime. Although we may not be able to see God and Jesus Christ in this life, I testify to you that they are real. They do truly exist. I promise you that if you will pray to know of their existence, you will come to know whether they exist or have been made up.
You are my friends. The Lord loves you and despite all our weaknesses and shortcomings, he still loves us and will forgive us if we will humble ourselves before Him and diligently seek correction and do whatever is needed to repent.
Remember that The Lord is always available to talk to through prayer 24/7. No question sounds too silly for Him. James wrote, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him" James 1:5. If you must know whether or not something is true or evil and deceptive, you can always pray to God. He will help you know what the truth is and what is not the truth. He will never be too busy to talk to. He will give you strength you need to overcome and conquer your temptations and will give you the strength you need to endure through your trials and afflictions. Paul said that The Lord will not give you temptations that you cannot resist, but that in your temptations, He will provide a way for you to resist, overcome and conquer them. He will provide a way. He wants to bless you and reward you abundantly. The Lord knows you and will not forget you. You are loved. You are utterly amazing. You have incredible potential. You are not forgotten or ever will be forsaken. You are special. You are unique. You are one of a kind. You have been reserved for this time and The Lord needs you on His side.
It simply would not be the same without you.
Thank you for your time.
Hi - have made 4 medium sized pork pies today following your recipe. Have never made hot water crust pastry before - easy. Thank you for the inspiration. Couldn't wait for them to cool and fill with gelatine, had to eat one tonight. They are delicious. You made it all look so easy and it was. Happy New Year.
Thank you very much for that recipe. The pork pie looks delicious. I'll try to make it next weekend. Greetings from Germany Stefan
Awesome, let me know what you think :)
I think a pie like this could create world peace I really do....delicious city!!!!
Well I suppose the Shias, Sunnis and Jews would be united in not eating it - that’s something.
Fantastic !!!!!
It's good for a French to learn about traditional British cooking !!! I'm going to try this, it's a wonderful comfort food for this season !!!
Thank U again !!!!
Hope you enjoy, let me know how you get on :)
I live on the road and, one of the things I do to keep my meat lasting as long as possible is to make pies. Living a simple life, I have no fridge no oven (well, I do have a cast iron pot).
One of the things I've been wanting to do for a while now, is make a decent pork pie (they don't sell them out here, Latvia).
Looks like I've found the recipe! Thanks!!!
That's great. If you give them a go let me know how you get on!
No pork pies in Latvia?
Looking like a great business opportunity, , , ,
Who’s coming, , , ? 🥧
@@johntailing5283 Almost no pastry of any kind in Norway. Feel free to come up here with that business idea of yours. ;)
Great recipe ! Absolutely thrilled with the result !
A fabulous pork pie and your method is so much easier and more logical than so many others. I am inspired !
Cheers. I was hoping to show an easy method that was as easy as possible to do. Thanks for stopping by 😃
End result looked great. Thanks for showing the method to use the spring form!
Ok folks, I here in CHCH, NEW ZEALAND, make my pork pies in Texas muffin tins.
I use pastry from supermarket, the savory one, same as I use for Bacon and egg pie.
Cut base at .150mm.
Cut top at .105mm.
My pie mix is pork, some bacon, mace, sage, pepper.
Cook as per, they release from tins very well.
Fill with pork trotters boiled down, after they have semi cooled.
They freeze well, and at the large muffin size make a lovely meal ,with vegetables, or yes on its own.
Too me the filling is the TASTE, and I get 12 pies knocked out so easy.
I boiled up 6 pig trotters today and will make 12 +++ pies tomorrow or next day.
Cheers to ALL, and have a great New year's.
This to all 29th December 2021.
A pub near where I lived served a ploughman's lunch which included a small pork pie. Fantastic with Branston Pickle!
Tescos?
@@mixerD1- no. Can't remember the name. It was in Santa Clarita.
I've already commented about the video...really good. I've made a few now but I am useless at putting the pastry into the tin. After much thought I have found a solution. Cut the pastry and place the round pastry over the pie tin. Then, gently press the pastry in the middle and then pour ceramic balls onto the pastry. The weight of the balls pushes the pastry evenly against the sides. Fill to the top, gently push down and then pour out the balls. Works like a dream.
Cheers for commenting again! Pleased you found a work around for the pastry, sounds like a great solution ! happy baking :)
What a wanker!
@@stevenholton438 You okay bud?
@@popcorns6472 haha yeah thanks Steve!
Most beautiful pork pie I've ever seen.
Cheers!
Can’t think of any other pie that even comes close to the delicious solid perfection of a well made pork pie!
Great video, love the idea of butter pastry but I prefer the traditional lard.
Looks like something I would like to try.
Oh, this looks absolutely superb! I definitely need to try this; I just need to get some small springform pans! Thank you for the recipe!
My pleasure, let me know how you get on :)
An excellent video , thoroughly explained and very easy to follow . Thank you for sharing with me .
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wait 48 hours, not in my house! That pie would be eaten up in minutes, it looks delicious!
That's why you make 20 of them in one sitting
😂👍
The crust is tough immediately after cooking it’s much better next day.
All that's missing is an eye-watering dollop of Colemans. Great vid!
Awesome your no nonsense approach was magic, you make a good tutor. & Your pastry is to die for. All butter mmmmm must say you are the first one I know to go down that route, I'm making three tomorrow from your instructions 👍👍
Amazingly well made instruction video, wish more TH-camrs made the effort to make vids as easy to follow. Thank you. And the pie looks great too.
Much appreciated! Thanks for taking the time to feedback
Mine are in the oven as Impost. Cannot wait for Sunday 😊. We live in Texas this will be the perfect all year round treat in this weather.
Unliked this video so I could like it again. That looks top notch
Can't wait to make this, forget the last question, I'll make it work either way. looks and sounds amazing. Thank you.
Let me know how you go!
very nice ! I have subscribed, thanks for the great recipe look forward to more
Incredibly juicy and flavorful!
I'm trying this. Thanks 😊
You’re welcome 😊
Pork pies remind me back home in the 90s and early 2000s in Zimbabwe 😋
That was basically a porno. If he'd brought out some Branston pickle it would've been pure filth.
Now Branston pickle I have. Wonderful with an ancient crumbly cheddar.
Absolutely. I have no shame in admitting that I had a bit of a 'chub' on when he took the case off...
IKR 🤣
was about to type pretty much the same thing 5:33 :O! straight-up pie porn!
Piccalilli has entered the chat!
I'm glad I can use butter instead of lard as I'm not keen on it either. Lovely recipe, thanks! :)
You are welcome :)
You and I clearly have different definitions of the word ‘easy’.
🤷♀️
And 'traditional'. I believe it should be lard not butter in the pastry.
The hardest part is waiting 24-48hrs but damn
@ This is quite a way from traditional. Traditionally the pastry would definitely be lard not butter, the only seasoning would be salt and pepper and the pie would be hand raised, not using a springform. And obviously a syringe wouldn't have been used to get the jelly in lol. Looks really tasty and is definitely a pork pie, but why put traditional in the title?
Followed your recipe. Perfect
That looks really nice, plenty of jelly actually salivating now
As a pork pie aficionado I have to rate this video 9/10, very good you nailed it!. I tend to use 50/50 butter lard and also use 25% ground pork but that's just a preference.
Appreciated :)
That's a cracking pork pie absolutely brilliant 👏 👌
Thanks 👍
Very clear and concice.could I layer it with chicken and ham?thanks
Lovely. Good quality video.
That looks heavenly. Thank you.
No tats! Thanks! Makes watching this excellent tutorial easier. I've made about five rounds of pies as an amateur. I prefer lard, but that's really splitting hairs
Cheers Gerry. I just can't do lard, but butter works well as a substitute :)
If you are interested in baking please visit our channel :
I've got four of these moulds knocking around at home (loose bottom rather than springform, but I think they'll work too).
I'm going to have a crack at this recipe tomorrow.
Looks amazing and i bet it tastes delicious
That’s a real work of art!
Love the channel mate, how about a video making Chelsea Buns ? You know the type that are light and fluffy and as tall as they are wide! Great video on sourdough, uncomplicated and no beards, tattoos, hipsters, and moostaches dragging it out ! Keep up the good work.
Thanks for the idea! Ill add the Chelsea buns to the list (the long list lol) - really appreciate the feedback :)

Excellent lad. Bravo from Down Under.
Cheers buddy
😱😱😱😋😋 this beats any store bought pork pie hands down...
It's a bit of effort, but definitely worth it if you love pies :)
@@CulinaryExploration yeah... and you know what's actually going into them...
Can a mixture off lard and shortening be used for the pastry??
@@coolerkin That should work fine!
Easy to follow and nicely presented mate... well done.
Love me a proper porky pie (or 3) so I shall be making this at some point ;)
Awesome, let me know what you think, and cheers for the feedback :)
Good video from South Texas
Cheers for the feedback :)
ah man these look incredible.
Absolutely fantastic and you make it easy to follow.....thank you 😀
What size spring form did you use?
You've made that look very easy! I'll be having a go soon ...
Great, let me know how you get on!
That looks delicious!!
What a great video! This is something my wife and I really want to make, we even sent to England for wooden moulds! I got some really helpful info from your video!
Klaus
Cheers for the feedback Klaus!. Let me know what you think if you try the recipe!
Such s great presentation!
Glad you liked it
Love your type of cooking thanks for sharing 😊
My pleasure 😊
What a really excellent video. Thanks a lot for taking the time to provide this recipe, I'm excited to try it out
Eat them cold? After the stock sets?
How do you prevent the dark overflow burn marks?
A lot of waiting going on here! I’m much to impatient to ever make this. I watched because I’ve never seen a meal like this before. Very interesting.
Great news, let me know what you think!
That's the business of a pork pie!😍
That looks so delicious!
Thank you. I wondered how it was done. Miss them here in France, so I'd better get cooking!
Awesome, let me know how you get on!
Yummy. Mouth watering. Thanks
Fantastic video and brilliantly explained. Can't wait to try it. Normally i grind the meat, but i think the hand cut is a much better idea., though not sure about the fat from the belly. I might do a hybrid version with minced belly pork and hand diced shoulder if the fat is too much.
Let me know how you get on :)
That looks delicious! I've never had a pork pie despite the fact that my grandmother was born in the UK. When I saw that stainless steel device I thought that a proctological exam was happening.
HAHAHA, I don't think you were alone, it looks like some medieval implement

Thanks for using metric! I hate having to use imperial measurements. Thanks for the video and recipe, too, I might have to make this, I do love a nice pork pie 😋
Agreed. It's time for the world to stop accepting movies that use the Imperial system. Time we killed it forever. Pork pie looks divine - perfect for a picnic.
Looks Wonderful Sir.
Thank you! Cheers!

Looks like a 4" tin

I've seen you use that board for many things, dough, meats and veggies. But in every shot it is looks like to be in pristine condition. My question is how do you maintain that wonderful sheen on your cutting board? I don't have one just yet and use a plastic one, but I've always wanted to own a high quality board. I'm a big fan of maintaining all the equipment and you seem to do a great job with it. Any tips would be great. Thanks for the video BTW, you have a new subscriber.
I wondered the same.
