Was extremely disappointed at the quality of the Killie pies over the last few seasons, the special pie was about the best, but the killie pies were poor fare, no where near the best pie around the country any more.

Bathgate (well Boghall) is the new best pie makers this side of Scotland. There Steak and Gravy pies are sublime!

Thats if your brave enough to go there!

You need more stupidity than bravery to go to Bathgate

This is from the Boghall wikipedia entry "Boghall is also home to many people as there are many houses". Pretty insightful stuff!

Anyone know any good white pudding butchers that will deliver to my door?

Haha, Bathgate is pretty terrible. The amount of fights there on a Saturday night is almost epic.

Got to love it.

Visiting Bathgate is like taking a time machine back to 1990.

Haha, so true!

Infact most of West Lothian is the same! Except Pumphy.

My local butchers are champion piemakers, best in wiltshire. Their scotch pies are pretty damn good.

Londons supposed to have some decent butchers, just go to a nice middleclass area with lots of shops and hunt for a decent piemaker.

My local butcher does scotch pies, white pudding and proper black pudding amongst other things.. maybe you have a similar shop near you?

For anyone who may be in the Reading area, I suggest you check out the village butcher in Tilehurst.
www.villagebutchers.co.uk

They deliver too!

I love you! :cool:

Get a steak pie.

Oh, that sounds good, never had one, or even heard of it before. Not hard to figure out though.

Hey, I forgot about my thread till just now

Good suggestions, particularly about going to a butchers shop, hadn't considered that.
