Mixed Free Range Meat Selection from Yorkshire Handmade pies Review

The mixed free-range meat selection from Yorkshire Handmade Pies is an outstanding option for those who appreciate high-quality, ethically sourced meat that is full of flavor and texture. This selection includes six individual pies, two of which are the award-winning Yorkshire Steak & Hambleton Ale pies, two of the award-winning Yorkshire Steak & Black Pudding pies, and two Braised Herb Fed Chicken, Smoked Bacon, Leek & Tarragon pies. Each pie is handmade using only the freshest ingredients, ensuring a truly authentic and delicious eating experience.

I was excited to try the award-winning Yorkshire Steak & Hambleton Ale pies first. These pies were truly exceptional, with a perfectly flaky pastry crust and a filling that was bursting with tender chunks of steak and rich, savory gravy. The addition of the Hambleton Ale added a deep, complex flavor that complemented the beef beautifully. It was no surprise to me that these pies had won a star at the Great Taste awards in 2022. The judges clearly recognized the quality of the ingredients and the care that had gone into making them.

The Yorkshire Steak & Black Pudding pies were just as impressive. These pies were a bit heartier than the ale pies, with a rich, meaty filling that was perfectly complemented by the tangy flavor of the black pudding. The crust was just as flaky and delicious as the ale pies, making for a satisfying and indulgent eating experience. I was not surprised that these pies had won two stars at the Great Taste awards in 2022, as they truly deserve all the recognition they have received.

The Braised Herb Fed Chicken, Smoked Bacon, Leek & Tarragon pies were a delightful surprise. These pies had a slightly lighter flavor than the steak pies, but were just as flavorful and delicious. The tender chunks of chicken were perfectly complemented by the smoky flavor of the bacon, while the leeks and tarragon added a delicate, herbal note that brought everything together. These pies were perfect for a lunchtime snack or a light dinner, and I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for a pie that is a bit lighter than the steak or black pudding options.

Overall, I was extremely impressed with the mixed free-range meat selection from Yorkshire Handmade Pies. Each pie was handmade with the freshest ingredients, and you could truly taste the quality and care that had gone into making them. The steak and black pudding pies were clearly the stars of the show, with their rich, meaty filling and flaky pastry crust, but the chicken pies were a pleasant surprise that added a bit of variety to the selection. I would highly recommend this selection to anyone who is looking for high-quality, delicious pies that are made with ethically sourced meat and ingredients.
