Steak pie is a silver success

IT’S official . . . one of the best steak pies in the world is made right here in Annan

Dunnabie Farm Shop, on the town’s High Street, received a silver award for their delicious steak pie at the 2020 World Scotch Pie Championships.

Employee Nicola Robson and head butcher John Johnstone collected the award from host Carol Smillie at the glitzy ceremony in Cumbernauld.

John said: “We’re delighted to receive the silver award. We’ve won several awards in the past year but to be named one of the world’s best is a great feeling.

“Everybody at Dunnabie Farm Shop puts in a lot of effort and it shows hard work pays off.”

To be considered for the championships, John had to make sure the steak pie was cooked beef with the addition of permitted seasoning, herbs, flavouring and thickener.

To qualify the pie must weigh a maximum of 250 grams.

Over 75 professional pie makers entered the championships putting forward over 450 of their best products into scotch pie, football pies and savouries, macaroni pie, steak pie, sausage roll, cold savoury, hot savoury, vegetarian savoury, haggis savoury, bridie and apple pie categories.
