Product Description

  • Seasoned uncured pork encased in a pastry case.
  • "Our story starts with an amazing woman"
  • Mary Dickinson (1768 to 1841)
  • Considered the originator of the hand raised Melton Mowbray pork pie, Mary is credited with using the first wooden dolly to raise a pastry case.
  • Mary's method has stood the test of time and she is the reason the Melton Mowbray Pork Pies we all know and love look the way they do."
  • Read more about out story below....
  • Jump forward to 1851, the year of the great exhibition and the height of Britain's Industrial Revolution. John Dickinson, Mary's grandson, opens his bakery in Nottingham Street, Melton Mowbray.
  • John's bakery is exactly where Ye Olde Pork Pie Shoppe is today. In the 1880's John Dickinson took under his wing an apprentice, Joseph Morris, saving Joseph from the local workhouse. The two worked so well together that in 1885 John added Joseph's name to the business and so the Dickinson & Morris pork pie you have in your hand was born.

  • Authentic Melton Mowbray
  • Pack size: 454G

Is this the best Melton Mowbray / pork pie?

4 stars

Is it the best Melton Mowbray pork pie? Probably not but compared to most pork pies that are mass produced and chilled it's pretty good. The level of seasoning varies, the last one was fairly potent in the pepper stakes, but still enjoyayable. At the end of the day it's a pork pie with some jelly/juices, some fat to keep the mix moist, plenty of meat and, if removed from the fridge and unwrapped well in advance of eating, the pastry texture and overall flavour is good. Theres better, but then go to your local artisan butcher to shop.

Best pork pie I've had fro. Tesco, great taste, gr

Best pork pie I've had fro. Tesco, great taste, great flavour, great pepper taste great jelly

Worse pork pie ever had

1 stars

Sent as a substitute for Pork Farms pork pie (although I didn't ask for one) Found the pastry soggy, not bothered about jelly, I usually take that out anyway. The meat was grey and the worst texture ever. It was full of gristle and lumps of something I can't describe, I had one bite and had to spit it out. Threw the rest away. Not something I would recommend.

Disappointing

2 stars

Disappointing. Tasty but too much gristle - lumps of it. Pastry soggy after one day.

Avoid these, the meat, pastry and jelly is awful!!

1 stars

Very poor, I will have to pay for the hugely better large ones and throw some away - rather than eat these again

best ones by a mile when i lived in Stamford i used to visit their shop in Melton Mobray mouth-watering mmmm,m,m,,m so much other stuff to purchase so i have to make do with only these now but hey small price to pay

Best Pork Pie of any supermarket.

5 stars

A really tasty Pork Pie, very close to the best we have ever had, even at much higher cost. Pastry is always firm and crisp and no sign of any gristle or other nastiest seen in other makes of pie. We no longer buy any other type of supermarket pork pies. Only down side is that Tesco hardly ever seem to have any available for delivery - no doubt getting bought off the shelves as fast as they arrive - order more Tesco, Please!!
