I’m resisting the urge to word filter pies to penis.

I'm with Vortex, I like the chewy flaky type pies. I like a puff pastry top, definitely. But it's not a pie if it's in a dish with the top plonked on. Needs a proper pie base.

I had a Fray Bentos pie once, pain to open and then discover it's not a pie.

People that tell my pants are undone - you could have just done them up for me and saved us all the hassle.

Our local butcher (award winning as they like to tell us all) sells family sized steak pies in tin bottoms with flaky pastry on top. They are so nice i could probably eat one on my own & it pains me to have to share with the family. Are you going to argue with a butcher who has knives & cleavers and shit? If they say it's a pie, that'll do me! Single pies, i can just about accept as a sealed unit for eating on the hoof for lunch, or at a match. For my dinner at home, no thanks, then i want luxury single tier flaky pastry lid only with a hearty meat/gravy mixture. 😀

I think you're both wrong but you can console yourselves that you'll live longer than me. (Not actually had a pie in ages. Should put that right).

You really should, Dougs. I guarantee you'll feel better even if you're already feeling great. All you have to do is decide between a Pukka and chips, or mash, peas and gravy

How about a proper flaky top... but also with a pie base?
Have I gone too far?

How about a proper flaky top... but also with a pie base? Have I gone too far? I think that's actually pretty ideal. The problem with a pastry hat approach is that the actual filling can easily end up with the incorrect meat / gravy ratio. If your left with a dish half-full of gravy and *nothing solid* it's gone wrong imo.

That's why you make the top twice as big.

I quite enjoyed making short crust pastry recently for a quiche (ridiculously easy if you've got the patience to keep everything chilled). Might have to try my hand at a pie next. With a pastry base, because I'm not a fucking monster.

The local rag & bone man drives down my road once a week with this song blaring out, with him intermittently getting on the mic saying "Any washers, bikes all types of scrap metal collected". It was an entertaining novelty 7 years ago, now it just gets on my tits.

Pie base needs to be quality though. I'd rather have none than a piece of mush at the bottom.

It was an entertaining novelty 7 years ago, now it just gets on my tits. There's a scrap iron / rag & bone type whose regular rounds go past my dad's. For a while it was a horse drawn carriage. I've still not got any idea what it is he actually said over the tannoy. You could hear him approach in the distance, slowly getting louder as he got nearer, with the clip clop of hooves acting as a strange metronome under the droning call of "aannneeeeeeeeee ohhh eeeee - ooooohhhhh aaaaaaaye"

I'm amazed rag & bone collections are still a thing. I have never seen or heard such a thing. Apart from on steptoe and son. Do you have a tv on somewhere by any chance?

Not seen one since I was about 11 or 12. Shame, really useful to get rid of stuff.

"Any old iron"? Is what they used to call when I was a kid.

I'm in the North West so Step Toe and Son is practically modern day. We were still getting coal delivered by horse and cart in the late 90's.
