Who will score the points in Birmingham’s Football Pie League?
Travelling up and down the country, a group of pie-loving friends and I chart the country's pie ratings on Pierate. For over five years now, we've been rating pies at the football matches we've attended following our local team, Wycombe Wanderers. We've rated over 500 pies so far!

There should be plenty of filling inside the pastry (who wants to pay for an air gap?!) and content that is flavoursome and made of quality ingredients. The meat should be tender and the pastry crisp and enjoyable, not doughy or soggy.
Finally, you want consistency with the pie filling (not just one big chunk of meat in a sea of gravy), and the pie should be good value for money (cheapness). When it comes to a pie at a football match, I wouldn't want to pay more than £3 for a mass-produced pie or £3.50 for a more artisan option.
