As someone born and raised in Melton Mowbray, I have eaten more than a fair share of authentic pork pies and even ones that tried to imitate them - often failing. So I was delighted to see the ad for your version. I can say with certainty that your version meets or exceeds the standard. The crust was perfect and the meat filling was generous, with little room for the gelatin. The flavor of the pork was perfect. What a joy to have an authentic pie for tea today. Thanks.
