Breaking News...

People love Pies!

Beef and Liberation Ale Pie

And the winner is.... this beautiful Beef and Liberation Ale pie (see the initials) from Alison Vautier. This was just one of a fine pair of pies from Alison and Steve.
It not only came top but was the winner of Liberation Groups extra prize for the best pie incorporating Liberation Ale.
Her Rhubarb and Ginger Pie came a respectable joint 3rd. A winning combination and a winning couple.

2nd Prize Balderson's unctious Pork Pie!
 Over 40 pie makers and pie tasters herded themselves into the St Mary's Pub. 14 pies were presented for the competition.

We wanted pies made with locally sourced ingredients, home cooked by skilled cooks and that is exactly what we got. The labours of love got the most points. Handmade pastry, hand reared pork or beef. Home grown rhubarb and a few emotional moments as family recipes were exposed to the discerning taste buds of Slow Food members.
Amazing choice and flavours...
