Product description
Our artisan bakers have taken a whole shoulder of British pork, combined it with dry cured British bacon and a specially blended mix of herbs, and spices. Then it's all packed by hand into a traditional hot water crust pastry case, enriched with extra butter.Once baked at home, the pastry is golden and crisp, the pie succulent and meaty.
