Just cooked the the northern style pork pies! They are perfect! I have hankered for that taste for years. Takes me back to my childhood days when pies were proper! Merry Christmas to you both.
Keef, You are a genius ,I did them 3 days ago and they turned out perfect, just finished the last 4 and all my friends here in Brazil absolutely loved them. They are used to pies which are so dry and only chicken and cheese pies , they are now asking when I will do the next batch. I used a muffin tin as you did and it was not so easy getting the dough in but I persevered also did 2 bigger ones in small cake tins and that was a lot easier, so gone out today and bought 12 individual tins . I also managed to burn my mouth on the first hot pie out the oven . Perfect recipe keep them coming.
These are so delicious I would never of tried to make a pork pie in my life, Thank you Keef for making this video and showing me yes I can do it. Love em I am going to make more for sure, There are friends of mine waiting for me to make some as I will be sharing them , Thanks again.
Thank you so much for this channel! I am from Germany and my fiancé is from Yorkshire. We live together here in Germany and I am trying my best to learn some English recipes because he does miss the English food and I really like it too. So thank you for so many inspirations and honest recipes! Stay safe and healthy x
Back in the 60's we used to go to Fenwicks in Newcastle Upon Tyne for their pork pies. They were the best ever and I have never had a pork pie as good since!
Hi Keef, my husband Geoff is originally from st. Helen's and swears the best pork and meat pies are made by Burchalls in Westfield street st.Helens. He has made a few of your recipes with good results each time. These pies were delicious, thanks for the recipe
I'm a born and bred Yorkshire lad now living 'darn sarf'. Nothing comperes to the pies back home so I'll give your recipe a try. Looks amazing, I like the Jelly to be set. ;)
Sorry these pork pies are strickly Lancastrian. .......ah yorkshire did my courting in yorkshire , not far from oldham on a old Bsa bike. Yes the girls loved it, the bike i mean hahaha.
Hi Keef! I'm so glad I found your channel. I've always loved your country and I have recently discovered how well you can eat in Britain. I'm completely in love with your pork pies and with many other recipes you've published here. And it's always so nice to hear a British person speaking English. Cheerio!
These look like the same pork pies I used to get in the Massachusetts city I grew up in.There had been a lot of people from Lancashire who came over to work in the cotton mills in the early 20th century. There were also some excellent fish & chip places.
@@Clipsxon3 Hartleys in Lincoln, RI, Hartleys in Somerset, Ma and Hartleys in Fall River, Ma where all owned by brothers in the same family. When I was young Hartleys in Fall River would would take back the pie if you asked for ketchup. Old man hartley would say you are not going to ruin my good pies with ketchup.
It's well known that in certain parts of the States that traditional British dishes are thriving sush as in butte Montana and the upper peninsula in michigan where the locals still eat derivatives of cornish pasties
There used to be a butcher's shop in the centre of york where the pies were presented in the window hot from the oven. In a puddle of molten jelly. Fabulous... There was a great pub across the street providing stuff to wash it down...
I'd never made hot water pastry before but I bought a springform baking tin with a loose base and these pies are a thing of beauty I can feel my waistline expanding I've had 2 today if you haven't tried these pies you've never lived.
Thanks for this cooking series. It keeps me in touch with my ancestors. For those who have egg allergies ( my Grandson), use melted butter as a wash instead of egg. Some bakers wait until after the pastry has been baked and brush with butter while the crust is still warm. This gives the items a slight homey glow and buttery taste. It's somewhat like butter swimming biscuits (Southern USA Style), however, with less butter.
If your ever in or near the West Yorkshire town of Cleckheaton, find your way to Metcalfe's butchers, they make the most wonderful pies in the back of the shop. Trust me, they're to die for
I always found pies from a stall in Dewsbury market moorish, my aunt used to buy a stand pie for Boxing day and we would walk from Cleck to Ravensthorpe for her magnificent spread, then catch the train back(too stuffed to walk).
@@Keefcooks I,m in OZ and was about to advise you of Tittertons in Stockport, pies to die for, but have just been informed by she who must be obeyed, that Tittertons have gone , so sad, the way the worlds going we will not have anything left, but memories . as an aside, the cheese and onion pies were marvellous from a bakers in Upermill who served through a lifted sash window to queue of locals every day !!!!!
BOY AM SO HAPPY THIS MORNING TO FIND THIS CHANNEL AND I MUST SAY YOU HAVE MADE THIS SO SIMPLE FOR ME TO UNDERSTAND! Honestly I cannot thank you enough!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍💋
I had some like this in Chorley a coupla years back. Like a home made Hollands pie, but twice as tasty (and I quite like a Hollands pie) Also had a butter pie in Chorley that was nicer than any other I'd had. I very rarely visit Chorley, but it's Pieville when I do.
I grew up on Chorley over 60 years ago and the gold standard was a Thornley's pork pie. I dream of them these days now I live in Asia where such wonderous pies are as rare as hen's teeth.
I love everything Northern, especially because my girlfriend is from Darwen in Lancashire. I am in a bit of a dilemma, many years ago I saw a tv program about traditional Northern cooking and they made some pork roast in a Porcetta style with lots of fresh parsley and onions rolled up in pork. It suppose to be a very typical dish in a certain place, but my brain's gone soft and I can't remember the name, wanted to surprise my Lancashiregal with a special dish when I see her next time in New Zealand.
"It's not a pork pie without jelly"., so true. My husband and I had a bakery in Ashton-Under-Lynne Lancashire where we baked everything northern, including the pies. It was my job to pour the jelly into the pie. What a memory even of the smell, delicious. But wait there's more. Cold Pork Pie with Cross and Blackwells Piccalilli . Sharp and chunky. Perfect. Thank's so much for my memory. (I could also wax lyrical about out Cheese and Onion Pie's.)
This was a fantastic video . I love a nice Pork Pie and will be giving this awesome looking one a try . Thank you so much for sharing this with me , I will post the results here when done .
I tried this recipe last week, managed 15 individual pies out of this recipe. The taste was incredible. Thank you so much Keef for sharing this recipe. I’ve recommended friends to check out your recipes.
All the way from Sacramento California, I’ve made these today and they’re in the oven at the moment. My house smells amazing! 😃 This is my first try at it. I saw them on the British cooking channel and recently had them at the renaissance fair. I can’t wait to taste them. OMG absolutely amazingly delicious 😋. They turned out perfect 😃
I've had this once. Nana made them when we visited her home in Middlesbrough many decades ago. They don't make this kind of stuff in rural Tennessee. Looks promising. Thanks, Keith.
Ey up m'lad! Aye Keef, there's nowt better than bitin' into a hot pork pie an' havin' that savoury jelly dribble down yer chin! Callin' 'em 'northern-style' is spot on, sets 'em apart from them Melton Mowbray ones tha always has cold. Northern pies are grand cold too, but heat 'em up an' they’re somethin' special. Proper comfort food, that is!
I used to love a hot Sayers pork pie, lovely pastry, fantastic meaty filling and the jelly, all runny and no matter what you'd do it would drip down and burn your chin....fantastic. (Sayers used to be a family owned local bakers with its bakery in Liverpool). They stopped selling them hot and then stopped selling them all together. Now Sayers is a shadow of it's former self
Meet your pies look lovely. I knew they are made with hot water pastry but didn't know it was so easy to make. I like the hard pastry. If we have pie and peas for tea the jelly runs out, I don't like the jelly. If I eat the lid cold I cut it into quarters and scrape the jelly out. I know I am wierd. My husband would love them
I subscribed to your channel sometime ago just for this recipe, however, I just had my 1st pie yesterday and it was Devine. I didn’t make it myself but I will now. 😃
For some reason you can no longer find a pork pie that is well jellied, not in the east midlands anyhow so will have to follow your excellent guidance and make my own. Jelly forever !
@@austin2842 I now live the epicurean VACUUM called SW Florida all we get here is effing fried chicken and scroty old BBQ, NO real food and NO ingredients to make real food. Mine I did find real OXO the other day.
Had them today, turned out spectacular already forwarded your link to my friends who are desperate to try them. Only difference Keef is I couldn't get lard so I used butter.
Got to admit it but thee look far better than Melton Mowbray pork pies, similar in fact to Scotch Pies which are a favourite of mine. Great recipe, thank you.
I think I could go with hot jelly but the gelatine in a MM style Pork Pie is generally/always discarded by me - so I must be mad ha hah. They're coming to take me away ha hah. Wonderful song.
great recipe, great presentation, luv it! Keith Floyd would be so lucky as to present your recipe. The Mad Scientist in me wants to try a version mixing in a bit of leftover skirlie from last night's dinner into the pork mix.
Hi @KeefCooks - Born in North East but moved to Chicago 10 years ago - this was fantastic. Had some questions and observations for you: 1. How think should you roll out the pastry too? Mine came out on the chunkier side once out of the oven. Still good though 2. Recommend people don't use a Bone Broth Stock (store-bought). Tasted not so good and I love Jelly. I didn't put mine in because of it. 3. Because of the Bone Broth issue, I put Branston Pickle in mine (yum). Also on your website, if you are on the Northern Pie recipe and click on related recipes for the Mobray Pie then I get not found. But if I look up the recipe from the main page it works. Keep up the great work. Thanks Wayne
@@eddytaylor5423 "Awesome" is the most annoying and overused word. Please use one of the other 3,093,172 adjectives currently available in the English language. Thanks very much.
I grew up in the North West of England but my dad's side of the family are from Keighley in West Yorkshire. Whenever we went to visit my grandparents growing up we always paid a visit to Midgley's pie shop (long since gone, sadly) and bought loads of their pork pies for our lunch. They went really well with mushy peas. I've never had a better pork pie than a Midgley's pork pie.
Your quite right Midgleys was the place for pork pies, freshly baked and warm, use to work at Airedale Springs and on Saturday the driver went down to get the pies for morning break, fantastic. C & L Herd Queens Road is the place now for pies, unfortunately for me it’s a rare treat as I now live in Kent.
@@gbee76, you're talking my language. I could just eat a warm Midgley's pork pie right now. Unfortunately pork pies are an even rarer treat for me as I now live in Canada.
@@seamusoflatcap, I haven't been to Keighley in probably 20 years or more so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to tell you. I do know where you mean though, but I haven't had their pies.
Gonna do this recipe but amp up the pork with some finely diced challots and a few more spices and to let the jelly cool and set......will make a nice lunch and is easier than making scotch eggs.Like given and thank you.
Ha. When I left home (Darlington) at 18 and moved to the midlands I assumed pork pie was meant to be hot (and usually eaten with chips and peas!) so I got a nasty surprise when the Melton Mowbray I'd popped in the oven came out like a sort of grey greasy pork crumble. I think the pies at home are a bit pinker than yours, a bit of bacon in the mix maybe. Anyway, many thanks for the tips, Keef, I'll be trying this (once Christmas is out of the way).
Once Christmas is out of the way. I like it Bob. I was collared by the doctors just after Christmas, you know a "well man" clinic. I'm on a diet now, so no pork pies for me. Sad faces all round.
I gave these a go Keef, never made hot water pastry before it was so easy. They were delicious! I did buy a Paul Hollywood 6 hole pie tin. Honestly I don't know why I bother with him - his recipe books are not that good never either- what a faff getting the pastry into the little holes. For my meat mixture I used half pork mince and half beef mince. I tend to use this for lots of recipes I find it's an nice meat mixture. I am not a big lover of all pork in anything but with the beef I really like it :)
@@pamelabrierley6522 so you are from the flat roofs is that right or is it the posh side of the summt. Hahaha which school did you go to. Msybe you were one of my girlfriends.. wow what a time it was. Haha.. yes i have happy memories of Royton and the Tanglehills . Very pleased to hear from you. Please check out Al Melling on Wikipedia.
Now, that's a REAL PORK PIE!. I remember as a young lad having them and always wanted to find them again. It was exactly as you describe; (jelly running down your chin and ther difference between Pork Pies up North, and the Midlands.) And guess where I tasted my best one? - on a Railway Station, not usually noted for good food. LOL Thanks for sharing this recipe in such a comprehensive manner.
The pie crust is almost like our biscuit except we usually use milk with lard with the lard cut in before adding the milk. Of couse we add baking power in the flour.
Hi Keef. I'm going to have a go at making your Pork Pies this weekend, I'll let you know how they turn out. I am originally from Barnsley in Yorkshire and remember the local Albert Hirst Pork Pies growing up in England. They were amazing. It's hard to get a decent Pork Pie here in Canada, this might just be they answer..................cheers.
Hard to tell - my muffin tins (actually silicone) are about the same volume as the individual tins I used in the video. But if yours are a lot bigger then yes, maybe a bit longer cooking - if you have a probe thermometer, you want an internal temperature of 66 Celsius/150 Fahrenheit.
I added an extra 10 minutes to both stages and the pies were perfect. I posted the results to my friends on Facebook and received lots of compliments and drools. Cheers Keef.
Try proper Yorkshire pork pies from Wilson's of Cross Gates and Morley. They make wedding cake pork pies and also have a van selling hot pork pies at Leeds Rhinos ground in Headingley Just go to the cricket ground and ask. For the northern rugby union club experience serve a hot pork pie with mushy pies and mint sauce, oh and a pint of Tetley's bitter. Good health.
Just cooked the the northern style pork pies! They are perfect! I have hankered for that taste for years. Takes me back to my childhood days when pies were proper! Merry Christmas to you both.

Just found this little gem. Can't wait to get home and make a batch of these.
I appreciate you confirming there is a local difference between Pork Pies up north and Midlands.
Whilst cold Pork Pies with set jelly are ok, nothing and I mean nothing beats a hot Pork Pie with runny jelly. Great upload, thank you!!
I don't see the point of putting in a jellied stock if it's not going to set. Why not just use an unjellied stock?
Great to see someone eat one
brilliant... thankyou
Thanks , will deffo try this one .
Looks awesome and tasty
Thanks for this cooking series. It keeps me in touch with my ancestors.
For those who have egg allergies ( my Grandson), use melted butter as a wash instead of egg. Some bakers wait until after the pastry has been baked and brush with butter while the crust is still warm. This gives the items a slight homey glow and buttery taste. It's somewhat like butter swimming biscuits (Southern USA Style), however, with less butter.

They went really well with mushy peas. I've never had a better pork pie than a Midgley's pork pie.
Your quite right Midgleys was the place for pork pies, freshly baked and warm, use to work at Airedale Springs and on Saturday the driver went down to get the pies for morning break, fantastic. C & L Herd Queens Road is the place now for pies, unfortunately for me it’s a rare treat as I now live in Kent.
@@gbee76, you're talking my language. I could just eat a warm Midgley's pork pie right now. Unfortunately pork pies are an even rarer treat for me as I now live in Canada.
@@Bahama3ay I worked for a while in Keighley and rather liked the pies from Lunds on Oakworth Road. Are they still there?
@@seamusoflatcap, I haven't been to Keighley in probably 20 years or more so unfortunately I wouldn't be able to tell you. I do know where you mean though, but I haven't had their pies.
Get yourself to Turner's butchers in Jump South Yorkshire mmmmm Best pork pies in the UK.
Going to try this recipe and see how things turn out. Thank you for the video, your pies look really good by the way. :-)
Gonna do this recipe but amp up the pork with some finely diced challots and a few more spices and to let the jelly cool and set......will make a nice lunch and is easier than making scotch eggs.Like given and thank you.
Have fun!
Ha. When I left home (Darlington) at 18 and moved to the midlands I assumed pork pie was meant to be hot (and usually eaten with chips and peas!) so I got a nasty surprise when the Melton Mowbray I'd popped in the oven came out like a sort of grey greasy pork crumble. I think the pies at home are a bit pinker than yours, a bit of bacon in the mix maybe. Anyway, many thanks for the tips, Keef, I'll be trying this (once Christmas is out of the way).
Once Christmas is out of the way. I like it Bob. I was collared by the doctors just after Christmas, you know a "well man" clinic. I'm on a diet now, so no pork pies for me. Sad faces all round.
Great Keef now I can make and eat pork pies .Geoff
I gave these a go Keef, never made hot water pastry before it was so easy. They were delicious! I did buy a Paul Hollywood 6 hole pie tin.
Honestly I don't know why I bother with him - his recipe books are not that good never either- what a faff getting the pastry into the little holes.
For my meat mixture I used half pork mince and half beef mince. I tend to use this for lots of recipes I find it's an nice meat mixture. I am not a big lover of all pork in anything but with the beef I really like it :)
Sounds great! Ol' Blue Eyes has had some luck in his life, hasn't he.
I think you are a much better cook than 'old blue eyes' :) Plus you still have your lovely wife LOL
Brillant i have never been able to get a pork pie like this anywhere else,,,,,only ROYTON STORE PIES back in the 50s.ooooh wow.

Now, that's a REAL PORK PIE!. I remember as a young lad having them and always wanted to find them again. It was exactly as you describe; (jelly running down your chin and ther difference between Pork Pies up North, and the Midlands.) And guess where I tasted my best one? - on a Railway Station, not usually noted for good food. LOL Thanks for sharing this recipe in such a comprehensive manner.
The pie crust is almost like our biscuit except we usually use milk with lard with the lard cut in before adding the milk. Of couse we add baking power in the flour.
thank you keef a pie to die for
Sounds yummy! Loved your video!
They look deelish... got to make these now 😁
Enjoying your channel👍🏻One question, with the northern pie would i5 be acceptable to have half lard half butter to make the pastry? Take car3 Mike
Yes, absolutely
These look amazing, however when taking them out of the tins could you brush the sides with some beaten egg to make the sides go brown as well?
Yes, you could.
Thanks for sharing. A new dish for me to try. Can I use shortening or butter. Great success for your baking journey
Shortening or butter would work.
Got me pork pie in Austria and it was amazing Keef .Just like pork pied back home Cheers buddy
+cromwell13649 Lovely, glad it works for you!
Hi Keef. I'm going to have a go at making your Pork Pies this weekend, I'll let you know how they turn out. I am originally from Barnsley in Yorkshire and remember the local Albert Hirst Pork Pies growing up in England. They were amazing. It's hard to get a decent Pork Pie here in Canada, this might just be they answer..................cheers.
Good luck Brendan!
Hi Keef. I've divided my Pork Mixture into 6 pieces as my Muffin tins are quite large. Should I increase the Baking Time? What would you recommend?
Hard to tell - my muffin tins (actually silicone) are about the same volume as the individual tins I used in the video. But if yours are a lot bigger then yes, maybe a bit longer cooking - if you have a probe thermometer, you want an internal temperature of 66 Celsius/150 Fahrenheit.
I added an extra 10 minutes to both stages and the pies were perfect. I posted the results to my friends on Facebook and received lots of compliments and drools. Cheers Keef.
Wonderful - well done!
Try proper Yorkshire pork pies from Wilson's of Cross Gates and Morley. They make wedding cake pork pies and also have a van selling hot pork pies at Leeds Rhinos ground in Headingley Just go to the cricket ground and ask. For the northern rugby union club experience serve a hot pork pie with mushy pies and mint sauce, oh and a pint of Tetley's bitter. Good health.
Love your pies keef making them over xmas
Yay!
Seen many recipe but yours is the most honest and straight forward recipe as far as I know from UK
