Handmade Pork Pie – Traditional British Pork Pie
Handmade by Head Butcher Matt Smith at The Artisan Butcher in Warwick – a proper British classic.
There are few things more traditionally British than a beautifully made pork pie, and ours are something we're particularly proud of.
Handmade in our Warwick butcher's shop by Head Butcher Matt Smith, our traditional Pork Pies are prepared using quality British pork, carefully seasoned and encased in a classic hot water crust pastry.
Baked in-store until beautifully golden, each pie combines a rich, savoury pork filling with traditional pastry and the unmistakable flavour of proper butcher's craftsmanship.
Whether you're putting together a festive Boxing Day buffet, preparing a traditional ploughman's lunch or simply fancy something delicious with a spoonful of chutney, our handmade pork pies are a wonderful choice.
