As we’re moving into the colder months, my go to for an autumn/winter warmer is Bigos, a 700-year-old Polish recipe which translates to Hunter’s Stew. If you like tasty cuts of pork, smoked sausage, mushrooms and cabbage, you’ll love this. This is my Mum’s recipe -

• 1kg of pork shoulder
• 500g of quality kielbasa or smoked sausage
• 1 smoked ham hock
• 2 large onions
• 500g of porcine or chanterelle mushrooms
• 500g of button mushrooms
• 1/3 cabbage, cored and chopped fine
• 500g (1 jar) of sauerkraut
• 4 tablespoons of tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon caraway seeds
• 2 tablespoons dried marjoram
• 355ml of a pilsner or a decent lager
• 2 tablespoons of mustard and horseradish to mix through just before serving

All ingredients are in order. Add water as needed, as this is a 4 hour cook.

You can serve it with boiled, roasted or mashed potatoes, or even pasta, but traditionally it’s served with dark rye bread and good quality butter.

How far would you travel for a "Snot Block"?

Where are the best Vanilla slices? Meat Pies? Sausage Rolls?

Back in the old Magpie days at Lidcombe they had a pie company as one of the sponsors, Janson's Pies, they were probably the best up there for mass produced pies with Aussie Pies

The best bakery pie was from a little shop in Thomas St near Star City run by some Thai woman. Their beef & burgundy pie was to die for.

The best sausage roll?? I'm super fussy. There used to be a pie shop in what is now Westfields MT Druitt that sold nice sausage rolls but the very best I've had were from "Jack & Co" in Taree. Sadly they closed their Cafe in Town Central but they still operate out of the BP.

The best Vanilla slice I ever had was from a little bakery called Bernie's that supplied Rooty Hill Primary School with junior pies, pies, sausage rolls, cakes etc. It was conveniently right next to the school & did roaring trade before school, lunch time & after school. Tradies & local workers would line up out the door past the footpath.

Thread 'Pies : Where do you buy your favourite and what is it'

Dec 20, 2014

Seeing the fact a certain forum member has mentioned he likes pies (and the fact the Mrs hasn't shown up back from the shops with some rolls lol ) was wondering where you get your favourite pies and what they are

For me I have a few favourite places , unfortunately none are in my current town

Travellers Rest at Gin Gin , yellow building opposite the toilet block on the national Highway scallops and chorizo absolutely beautiful

Little take away shop on Gap Creek Rd at The Gap chicken pies , we used to start work early so we could pick them at smoko because there were none left by lunch...
