Sorry to my pork pie loving friends. I couldn't help winding you up with the title but let this not detract from the fact that pork pies are GROSS! 😉

Pork pies are great, absolutely love them, especially the Melton Mowbray pie, made with uncured pork, the jelly is delish. put in to stop the filling from moving around inside the pie when cold as it shrinks when cooked.

If you love living museums, next time you’re on the East Coast of America, come visit Historic Williamsburg in Virginia. So much history and people are milling grain, sewing authentic period clothes, smithing nails and horseshoes, etc. ALL of the employees are all dressed historically accurate and it has beautiful gardens and grounds! It’s also not far from Jamestown when your ancestors came and landed here in America! 😊

Hi guys. Here's the answer to your duck query. The strange, warty-faced Muscovy Duck causes confusion for some bird watchers, as it's very distinctive and quite commonly seen, yet does not appear in some field guides. One of the oldest domesticated fowl species in the world, the Muscovy Duck was already being kept by native people in Peru and Paraguay when the early Spanish explorers arrived. The word “Muscovy” may refer to the Muscovy Company (incorporated in London in 1555), which transported these ducks to England and France.

The gelatine is literally my fave bit, when its made properly with a stock its pretty good for you. Maybe not the lardy pastry though

the jelly in the pork pie is where the flavor is, & when they are freshly made & still warm, they are nice n juicy, i love them, also orginaly, ginger nuts were called ginger snaps

Another Awesome vlog as always! Loved it! Alex and Emma you guys are so inspiring!

As an American, I like pork pies. I would describe it as spam in a pastry somewhat.

There are lots of living museums like this in Canada. They’re a wonderful idea! I’m new to your videos and I have to say that I’m thoroughly enjoying them, especially this as I have family in Much Wenlock. I was born in Portsmouth and have been away for 31 years now. Time to come home 😉.

I wouldn't worry about the river. Its a hell of a lot higher now with flood barriers! Shropshire Star is the local rag. Famous for its sometimes dubious headlines.

these videos are uplifting & fun to watch

Weald and Downland, and even better Morwellham Quay in Devon. The guy who runs the train there, who is in my pic there on the left of me is amazing. He was featured on several of the Farm shows. If you liked bliss hill. you will love it.

Muscovy duck. We have these in Suffolk. The reason they are so large could be due to the number of people who arrive with bags of bread :)

I have been there in 2015. Nice museum. Cheers!

Although I was previously saying “wot no pork pie??” on your picnic video I must confess I used to hate them when I was a kid and also because of the jelly!! My dad used to make me finish the whole flipping pie and I was a bit 🤢. Anyway fast forward ten years and I discovered jelly-less pork pies which I actually enjoyed quite a bit with decent pastry and decent meat too. After that I went back to a jelly one and honestly it didn’t bother me at all, I just kind of saw past it. Anyway, mission accomplished - you trolled me with that title. Haha! Great video and loved the visit to the living museum. So very cool. We’re following your footsteps on Wednesday and off to the Cotswolds. Hoping the weather holds out for us 🤞

Great video👍 Beans. I’m enjoying this 🇬🇧 series so much. I’ll be sad for it to end😢 but Turkey 🇹🇷 is beautiful 😘

So strange to see a V-log in my home town. The pies are great though and the pasties, suppose I'm biased. You should go back to Blists hill on Halloween, when covid is over it's a great experience. P.s next time try some raisin bread.. can't wait to eat it again!! Nice video more Ironbridge pls

Canada does Heritage Parks in this style of a living museum. Calgary, AB has a great one, and there's one I went to in Ontario as a kid too (near Ottawa, don't remember the name).

Okay with Alex i got to understand what the english humor is like...hahaa i actually like it, i think im british at heart

Love Pork Pies! Last march i picked one up at the exact same place in Iron Bridge!!!!!!!!!!

The jelly in a pork pie keeps the meat moist. Mustard is a must

As a local here in Ironbridge I’ve got say that the pork pies from Eleys are self proclaimed world famous and also really not the best and I love pork pie.

Despite being a massive sausage roll fan, I agree with Alex that pork pies are absolutely gross! I want to love them but the jelly just puts me off! Also you totally reminded me about the Victorian day we had in school and the writing on slate! Memories!

Looks like a nice pie!

Most pork pies don't actually have much jelly nowadays as it has to go in when the meat goes cold. Most producers don't have the time to wait. Farmers markets like the ones at Ludlow have the best pork pies. As someone else has said, The Black Country Living Museum near Dudley is well worth a visit and is the best living museum in the country.

Your right. Bob is legend!

Shades on a cloudy day? Take it ease

Konnichiwa!! I'm a big fan of Peter Rabbit.Could you please go and explore the Peter Rabbit's Town HillTop? I'm from Japan!!

Hey hey from SA,I think you must come and try SA spare rib pie and hamburger pie its soooooo good.That pork pie didn't look good at all ....lots of love from 🌍⛰just love your videos

I used to live not to far from this area when I was 5 and 6 and I would be forced to walk around that museum at least once every few weeks, looks lovely but I was put off at a young age from ever going back as an adult. You need a hot meat pie in your life Alex, in Lancashire they have meat pies where they will poor gravy in through a hole in the top of the pie which makes the jelly turn back into liquid form leaving you with dense meaty goodness with delicious crusty pastry. Ps your video very much cheered me up as today was first day back at work after paternity leave and iv come home to a very grizzly baby and now have to and play football in the rain while carrying a fair amount of paternity leave takeaway weight

Great as always. Emma, fantastic outfit color coordination with your scarfs. How in the heck are we ever going to get you your silver button? You so deserve one... *sigh*

Would recommend to visit the Black Country Living Museum in Dudley.

Emma I'm surprised you have such a distinct and strong English accent for someone who grew up into almost her adolescence in the US! If you don't want to say which state, may I ask in which region of the country did you live?

muscovy duck ;-)

😱😱😱 I AM QUITE RELATIVELY IRKED!!! I LOVE PORK PIES... 😥😢😭

I've had ginger nuts but it cleared up after getting some cream from my doctor !

Heat your pie and put some HP on it just warm not pipping. The seven floods quite often the development of flood fields by farms and housing

Alex, sorry mate for once I must disagree with you, love pork pies 😉 Truthfully though the best port pies are produced in Melton Mowbray in Leicester. The jelly I believe is "Aspic Jelly" a kind of gelatine which uses pigs trotters are part of it's recipe. On the subject of school trips, yep visited the Ironbridge and museum many times as a kid. Try adding a little Stilton cheese with the pie it's said to compliment the flavor 🤢 😂 Great vlog guys.

The large Duck is a male Muscovy.

That is a Muscovy duck. 🙂

What is the jelly? Like unflavored gelatin? Looks like a really interesting place to visit!

I’m sure the worst food would involve eels. I think what you refer to as slate, would be a chalkboard in America. I’m 52 and we had them in school. If you were bad, you’d have to write on the board a number of times, what you wouldn’t do. Otherwise, it was for teaching.

Hail Sausage Boy🤣

It's the pork pies that have white slime on the bottom of the pastry that I don't like uugh

The rivers up and not very high in this vlog. Gets a lot higher. The bench you sat on disappears under the river.

Porl pies are delicious ESPECIALLY THE JELLY!

Not heard of Melton Mowbray world famous pork pies guys ? Bloody delicious but like you I don’t like that jelly 😊

Lol...a good fresh pork pie you can't beat , you've been out of the UK too long and forgot what food is ....especially as you seem to like Nandos 🤮 🤣

Saying that pork pies are not nice is worse than kicking the queen......You cant get a decent pork pie south of Doncaster......This is the food that is eaten in heaven with lots and lots of jelly......

My ex only ate the pastry, suited me.

Hope you know Telford is town not Ironbridge

I'm from Yorkshire and do not like Pork Pie, you should see the disbelief on the faces of family & friends...

think need chill out abit 😂😂

Great video Try a walls pork pie 🤮

without English mustard or at a pinch HP sauce you don't Know​

We do it better with menudo inside a bun. It's tomato based in the Philippines. Yeah it's pork.

I am still disappointed in you guys there’s no Nando’s 😢😢

Heathen! You can down an American breakfast of pancakes, bacon and maple syrup on eggs, but hate pork pies?????? I fear extradition my be the only suitable punishment :-(

Pork pies BOAK :{

Im not a fan of pork pies, Ive tried them and they are not to my taste. We have a slang here in Australia.... Telling pork pies, Which means to tell a lie, HAHAHA

Not sure why you want to say it's something Americans would do is put jelly in the pork pie??? We don't have any meat pies with jelly. Always wanting to take a jab at Americans in your older videos. And is the pork pie served hot? Or do you eat them cold?

My partner disagrees with the thumbnail Giving me grief now here at the pub, need to hurry home and watch the vlog. #knowyourpriorities #littleandlargebeans #travelbeansfans

Trust me most Americans wouldn't like jellied meat pies any more than you 😵

By the way. Have you visited Victorian Town on the Blist Hill just mile away westward from Ironbrigde? Highly recommended!

I live in Telford area. And I can confirm - English food is mostly crap. Go to Hadley to the Polish shops (pierogi!!!).

Thank god I can only eat halal 😜

I am not used to yet to see you in thick clothing.

came to dislike, bye
