Went for the deep pan steak and ale plus deep pan mince and onion....
The innards spilled out over the top of the tin and turned into black tar on the baking tray.
Pies were a bit empty of contents but still had the soggy pastry and classic taste. Going to stick to the normal ones in future.

The printing on the tin is pretty good as well.
I can't imagine they would go to the trouble of creating such high quality packaging for an inferior product.

The tin opener I tried was one of those cheapo butterfly openers. It couldn't hack the FB tin and broke in half before getting half way round.

Why'd you use a butterfly opener on a tin? That's why we have tin openers.The tin opener I tried was one of those cheapo butterfly openers. It couldn't hack the FB tin and broke in half before getting half way round.
It took you 3/4 of an hour to open a part opened tin.
