Someone needs to say it, The butter wouldn't melt so we put it in the pie. We're so sorry uncle Albert, but we haven't done a bloody thing all day.

“What ever vegetarians make pastry out of”...still laughing, thanks Keefie. I was attempting to tell a friend who always buys pre made crusts in tin pans how simple homemade pastry is, and how much better tasting, but I do make mine w/KitchenAids assistance, rollout & rollup for freezer storage, homemade crusts ready for use These pies look lovely! A jolly good sport Mrs Keef Cooks, good fun!

Now is the winter of our discontent made glorious summer by this son of York, who needed to be delivered to Lancashire for a pub crawl in Bury.

The Best Butter Pies in the world lol are from Rounds Bakery, Ribbleton Lane Preston, thanks for sharing the recipe Keef.

“What an interesting year we’ve got coming up”. ....you can say that again..

My mother (from Preston) used to make butter pie. Yours isn't too bad but it needs pepper as well as salt. Quite a lot of pepper.

As a Prestonian and North End fan I have to say that shop bought butter pies are insipid. Home made are delicious but you missed out a necessary ingredient, white pepper never be tempted to use black pepper. It should be added when sweating off the onions in the butter. The potatoes should also be added to the onions and butter so they soak up the butter as well. Hmmm yummy served with red cabbage and mushy peas.

Yeah Your Back for January 2020 ! I’m happy to see you and Ms Keef Cooks

Preston's reputed best is from "Berrys" on New Hall ln, Preston. Good attempt from a Yorkshireman, Oh yes, pie butty from the pie shop in the entrance to St John's shopping centre, Preston.

As Paul McArtney once sang: "Admiral Halsey notified me, he had to have a berth, or he couldn't get to sea. So I have another look, and I had a cup tea, and a butter pie! The butter couldn't melt, so I put it in the pie - all right!"

MrsKeefCooks is such a good sport.

Looks good but BIG temptation to add pepper and cheese to that pie!

Happy New Year, Mr. and Mrs. Keef. Thank you for the channel! Edit: With a bit of cheese you'd have Lancashire pierogis!

It’s now 10mths later, Nov 2020 and I’ve watched this video for the second time…. I have a friend who lives in Preston who is ‘obsessed’ with Butter pies…..Anyway I was quite ‘rocked’ by your opening statement , “Ello you lot, first video of 2020, what an ‘interesting’ year we’ve got coming up, I can’t wait to see what’s coming up. Truly prophetic from a Covid point of view?

Amazing..love butter pie.memories as a teen...yes,am from Preston,atm am in London..and Cant get it here,not even the chippy. and scallops.. I will defo bake it your way..thank you.🤗💙😘?...God bless.

Mrs. KeefCooks' is such a good sport! Made me smile and I look forward to giving this recipe a go. I'm very glad I subscribed relatively recently!

That pie lucks so scrumptious!!!

Hiya Keef - just loved this video. I Lived in Leyland Lancashire between 1980 and 1990 and worked at BNFL (half way between Preston and Blackpool). My colleagues and I would spend our lunch times in the company's social club washing down our butter (and meat and potato) pies with copious quantities of Thwaites's and Mathew Brown's bitter. What happy memories you've awakened! I now live in the north east and am happily married to a local lass to whom I've often waxed lyrical to regarding butter pies. Do you ever get the feeling that somebody thinks you've made something up - or thinks you are the victim of an overwrought imagination? Well, that's the feeling I get when I extol the glories of Lancashire butter pies. I've had great success with making Cornish pasties and scotch pies - well Keef, thanks to you, I can now present the ellusive butter pie to my other half. Wish me luck!

Preston lass here, great video. We had butter pie every Friday in our house from Dean’s bakery on Blackpool road, Lane Ends in Ashton, Preston. We also have the butter and cheese version which is my favourite.

That pie looks amazing

Potatoes, onions, pastry----sounds good to me!

now then Keef. I worked in Chorley for a while and these were the best pies I have ever tasted, loved 'em. Thanks for 't video.

Mrs. Keef Cooks has excellent taste -- and so does Keef Cooks' pie (according to the Mrs.).

Loved your show and will give it a try just love onions and potatoes! Thank you!!

Yaaay! keef went to our "World-famous Bury market!"

Thanks Keef, really enjoyed the video and I’m making the pies as I write. Thank you for your amazing recipes.

Thank you, you are both so sweet. I will try this at weekend.

As a confirmed meaty, I never would try a Veggie Pie, but I had one of these at Deepdale at the Fulham Match a few years ago and they were delicious. I wish we got these down South.

Happy New Year Mr. & Mrs. KeefCooks

looks delicious!

It is rather like scalloped potatoes in a pie. I will try that. I think it will be delicious.

When Mrs. Keefcooks said she liked the first one, the look on your face was priceless. Enjoyed your little victory dance when she chose the second pie. Now, if you will excuse me, I need to go bake some of these little gems for myself and Mrs. Gunnysgt1911.

Thanks for these videos. My wife is an ex chef retired, so i now enjoy experimenting after years as an electrician. Bread being my main interest. Was amazed at the results of a egg and bacon pie , something i had never heard of before . It was not your recipe, but basically the same. I will do it again using your technique. This one looks good , wife never heard of this pie.. but will give it a go.

Thank you for an entertaining video, Keef! Mrs Keef Cooks laughed as much as I did. Great there is no inane background music. You too have lots of fun.

KeefCooks is the master of pies and knows what he is on about no other KZfaq channel will come close when it comes to making a British classic! it looks delicious Keef, and Thank you for sharing :-) and Happy new year to you & Mrs KeefCooks :-)

Starting off the year with butter? I can’t wait for the videos yet to come!

I saw KeefCooks in the title and clicked Like without hesitation! He could've fried up a cowpattie and it gets my vote. The pie looks like it should be served in a plate full of gravy, jus' sayin'. today's tip: when eating black puddings always tuck the tablecloth into your collar. that way, if the pudding slips out of you mouth it will slither it's way back down onto your plate!

Here's to a happy decade KK, and Mrs. KK!!

Delicious 👍🏻 And sweet mrs Keef cooks She’s a gem

The only way I ever heard of butter pie was in an early 1070`s Paul McCartney and Wings song, "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey." Thank you for the answer to my 50-year-old question. Cheers!

Happy New Year, Mrs. & Mr. Keef! Glad you made it back from Lancashire in one piece. I presume you had all your jabs before you went, and made it through the Todmorden border controls safely. I love Bury market and all its exotic Lancastrian delicacies (except black peas!) and especially the black puds!

Bless them. What a lovely pair. They look so happy it made me subscribeXD.

I love how you say, "Butter Pie!" Sent a link of this to my hubby at work. I told him this guy told me you needed this recipe because you were planning to bake it this weekend! (So sorry Mr. Keef!) Hubby texted back and asked, "What guy?" 😬😆🤣 Seriously, we've been curious about Butter Pie thanks to Uncle Albert! I think hubby will want to bake it soon! Thanks for posting!

Nice one Keef. You inspired me to do something vaguely similar with carrots, courgettes and butter beans instead of potatoes. Wholemeal flour for the pastry too, but then I weakened and shoved some Stilton into it 😋

Indeed:"What an interesting year 2020" 😭😭😭 Thank you for the wonderful recipes

LOL @ the coconut oil reaction! A feeling shared by many!!!

I’m from Preston and butter pies from here are the best

Mate, you're brilliant. Never change

Prestonian here and I love a butter pie. Looks like you did a decent job.

Well isn't this just great. I now need to buy those little pie thingies and make a few of these little pies. About 20/25 should do. Thank you very much!!

happy new year keef my lad

Great video !!!

Dear Mr and Mrs. Keef: I come from Ashton-under-Lyne which is up the road from Bury. Mum bought the black Pudding it was simply boiled and served with potatoes, butter and salt. Loved It. My husband Jack and I had a bakery in Stamford Square AUL.. and i still use our recipe for onion pie, which we had pre-orders for and sold out on a Friday. All your recipes bring back such memories of my past. Thank You.

The problem is not adding things you think will make it better... made me laugh.. haha, thanks for the happiness you gave me today. We all need to laugh.. I also add stuff I shouldn't, then my wife asks me later whether I stuck to the recipe. hahahah She is Italian and they stick to the recipe a lot more.

"what an interesting year we've got coming up" looking back that feels like an understatement 😂 Hope you and Mrs Keefcooks are both keeping well, love the channel

I love this couple! Why do I watch these videos when I am trying to lose weight?!

Preston's the best place for a butter pie. Honestly. Nice one Keefcooks :-)

Until now, the only time I heard of a butter pie was in a Paul McCartney & Wings song. That pie looks really good. Hope you and Mrs. Keef have a Happy New Year. Cheers, Keef!

"2020, what an interesting year we have coming up!". Me, writing in late 2021: "Oh, you have no idea!"

I'm originally from Preston and Walton-le-Dale .....small world Eh! :) ex-wife was from Bolton ;0

Your husband loves you. And you are a good sport.

Hello Keef my Grandma & Mum used to sprinkle a little white pepper on the middle layer of spuds to give it a spice. Plus they used lots of salted butter on each spud layer. Yours looks just like them.

Message about butter pie was received in Tennessee. Looks absolutely delicious. I will be trying this this winter with a beef stew or some such. And yes I will be making my own crust.

Hello Mr and Mrs Keef. My husband and I live in South Africa but his mum was from Lancashire so I thought I’d give your recipe a go. Everything turned out perfectly and hubby was very impressed with the pastry. Thank you so much for sharing

Just found your channel, so excited. I m from Newport New Hampshire, love your accent !!! The pie really looks good.

Fun to watch

Thank you for shering your video from Michelle in australia.

Loved that video keep. Loved your expressions. Looked lush that pie. I’m agonna make one.

I’ve researched my ancestry and our fam is from Lancashire. So checking out your recipe, thank you.

Greggs used to sell these years ago I loved them. Thanks for uploading how to make them

Never heard of this pie !,, I’m a good pie maker good job because you can’t get a decent pie down South , love your vlogs your a funny pair .

What a fun couple! This looks delicious new subscriber

All I can say is yummy ❣❣

I'm sure I've had a version of this pie keef, there used to be a bake shop in Breck road and my mum would buy a Whites's pie for us for our tea. Deffo going to have a go at this pie as it looks fab. I did laugh at the term Catholic pie 😆 I'm with Mrs K everything is better with gravy and it needed a side of freshly fried chips and mushy peas followed by a 48 hour carb coma 👍

I used to work in Bury years ago, l didn’t live far from there,l can’t think whether l ever tried one ,they look delish ,

Remember these when I was a lad. Only available over the boarder being a Yorkshire lad. Absolutely lovely. ❤️

Hi there stumbled across you whilst looking for dinner ideas lol , i am a vegetarian and you could use certain brands of vitalite or flora to replace the piggy fat lol tried and tested very nice indeed

Looks delish, but as you rightly said, carb overload - and with my diabetes!! Happy New Year, you lovely couple! All the very best!! Peter A

Proper man scoff is that. I thought it might be a little dry but it looked lovely. Nice one Keef and Co. Happy New Year. BTW Keef, Chuck Norris called, he wants his shirt back, apparently he has a new Delta Force movie on the go.

We have Butter Tarts in Canada - but they are a sweet. Butter, brown sugar and raisins in a tart shell.

Those butter pies I'm sure must be delicious I will have to give them a try. Unfortunately I am a forced vegetarian as I am unable to digest meat. So always looking for toasty vegetarian dishes. Thank you Keef 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇿🇦

Awwww y'all are so cute

She has a great laugh! I would add some ham to that pie.

It's a Friday pie in my house Catholics ate it on Fridays because you couldn't eat meat .

Thanks.

Thanks for the recipe Keef I lived in Bamber Bridge and Lostock Hall (both 4 miles ish from Preston) for my first 20 odd years during the 70s & 80s The pies in those villages where immense at the time... I have not been back in many, many years sadly so I have no idea if the traditions have been kept alive I make my own pies these days but I throw a little spice in there these days Quick story @ 19 I went to work in London for a while and at my first lunch break I went to the local chippy. I confidently asked for Meat and Potatoe pie, chips, peas and gravy in a tray with a plastic fork. The bloke behind the counter looked at me as if I had come from a different planet. Which I guess I did and I’m sure it’s still like that 35+ years on. The only thing he had that I asked for was chips. And they where disgusting 😊

New subby! Currently binge watching. Both of you are brilliant! I am also, saving your recipes Thankyou 🤗 regards from Lancashire 🤣🤣 love a butter pie!

Elo keef just come across you your butter pie looks good but my granny came fro. Westmorlandand her butter pie was done in a big brown dish potatoes were diced and onions were cooked together .then she filled her pie dish put half a pound of best butter on top then a lovely thick crust....ow what memories x x

My Yorkshire wife has attempted butter pies ,Not coming from the sunny side of the Pennines tyhe pies inevitabbly come out shrivvled, Hard, Dry and Cold. I must encourage her to stir the pot amd softem the edges

Did you pre heat the oven? What temp? How long?

I'm a Bolton lass, I'll be trying that one.

What an interesting year.......We had no idea

Tried one from a branch of Booths once, pretty good.

Hi Keef, brought up in Leeds, in family pork butches, Dinkey Pies were always on sale every week in all our 5 shops, they were also known as 'Whist Pies' popular nibles at the local whist drives. In fact I've hd a business here in Granada Spain for the past 25 years and still have the old 'Dinkey Pie' blocking die today. Love your videos, good wishes to you and Mrs Keef Cooks for 2020.

Wonderful market!! Lots of noise and great food;)

I've heard the Pennsylvania Dutch add a tbsp of vinegar and I've tried it and it does improve the crust

Just found your channel here. I was intrigued by the Lancashire butter pie as I'd never heard of it. But once you bit into the shop bought one I was taken right back to my mum's Potato and onion pie. Sometimes she would add Lancashire cheese.

INTERESTING UPLOAD THANKS FOR THIS ONE!!! NEW SUBSCRIBER!!!

Reminds me of a potato knish almost. Not quite but it certainly looks to be very reminiscent in flavor & texture.

13:53 - I wanted Mrs K to put the glasses on over the blindfold.
