The Dales Chef

Pork Pies

10 minutes | Friday, 4 April 2025

Pork Pies are a Yorkshire speciality and each pie shop stamps their own mark on them. All different in the Dales, yet equally delicious.

In this episode of the Dales Chef, Bruce Elsworth looks at the history of pie making in Yorkshire. We compare with the famous Melton Mowbray pie - and which is best?

How do you like yours? Here in the Dales we love our pies hot - straight out of the oven and oozing with liquid jelly. Delicious!

There's fun facts and we look at what best to pair your pie with. Pie and a pint, pie and pickle or pie and peas! Together it is the ultimate Dales pub lunch!
