Жыл бұрын

The MacMaster is at Mad O'Rourke's World Famous Pie Factory in Tipton to take on The Desperate Dan Cow Pie Challenge. Steak & kidney plus a variety of seasonal vegetables all slowly cooked together in their famous gravy.
Baked with a pastry lid + pastry horns. All 4lb comes to your reinforced table.
Devour every delicious morsel of our legendary cow pie including the pastry horns and become a legend in your own lunchtime! Certificate awarded for every challenger, but will it be for magnificent glory or miserable failure?
Food challenges like these I normally leave to the professionals like Beard Meets Food and Leah Shutkever.

In the North East there's a different sort of pork pie, which is chunks of pork in a white sauce made into a pie with shortcrust pastry.

we went about 5 years ago & I completed the Cow Pie challenge even though the owner kept taking the piss !!! it was very memorable , we all had a great time & I got the certificate !!! surprisingly I did not feel bloated at the end it was such good food , Mad O'Roukes is a must visit place.

Homemade meat and potato pie. Steak and ale if I’m out. I’m from Yorkshire and pork pies normally eaten cold, even when served in a bowl and covered with hot mushy pies. A van used to come round in the 50s but you had to supply your own bowl and they would fill it! Happy days again.

Breakfast dinner tea. The reason I believe that the midday meal is dinner is because when we were at school the ladies that came in to serve the midday meal were referred to as dinner ladies. Anyway we love the pie factory and try to go there every few months. Best to go there for a cow pie if you are particularly hungry. Always full of meat. For those not keen on kidney there is a kidney free version available, but I believe you have to contact them a day before your visit to order one. Last Christmas they had a turkey pie that was a similar size to the cow pie and that one was stuffed to the brim with delicious turkey. It was banging. For those that like a soft drink with their meal the coke available at the bar is absolutely delicious.
