Looking for a gift that’s a little different fun and absolutely delicious? This Ultimate Pork Pie Making Experience with Ploughman’s Lunch is just the thing. Whether you’re buying for a foodie, a baking enthusiast or someone who loves trying new things, this hands-on experience is packed with flavour and, of course, pies.
Over the course of this 3-hour workshop, you'll learn the time-honoured art of making a traditional Melton Mowbray Pork Pie, one of Britain’s most iconic savoury treats. Guided step-by-step by expert pie makers, you’ll discover the secrets behind that famous hot water crust pastry, how to pack it with the perfect pork filling, and even how to make the gelatine that gives these pies their signature finish.
By the end, you’ll have crafted your own Melton Mowbray Pork Pie to take home and bake or freeze to eat at a later date. You’ll also take home a freshly baked pork pie, ready to eat and enjoy straight away.
And because making pork pies is hungry work, you'll also take away a classic ploughman’s lunch. Think cheese, crackers, pork pie, salad, cake and bottles of water, all served with cutlery and napkins in sustainable packaging with a reusable bag to carry it away.
Whether you're looking for a quirky gift with a personal touch, or searching for a memorable experience that ends in something truly tasty, this pork pie making workshop ticks all the boxes.

Really good idea, pairing an experience with a great Ploughman's lunch, pickles and all!
In a world of boxes of chocloates and flowers, I bought this for my mum and dad and they really enjoyed it. They learnt how to make a pork pie and even got to take it home with them! The lunch was a bonus and a nice little touch as they were starving after the lesson!
