Competition to find Wolverhampton's first 'Pie Minister'
Forget Brexit - an award-winning Black Country butcher's shop has begun its search to elect their first ever 'Pie Minister'.
Robinsons Butchers and Deli, on Tettenhall High Street, has launched a regional quest to find the city's ultimate pie loving leader.
The competition is running from March 5 - 10 and comes as part of celebrations for British Pie Week, which advocates the best of British pies.
Customers can be in with a chance of becoming the Pie Minister by finding a 'very British looking coin' hidden with one of Robinsons pork pies.
The winner will win a year's supply of pork pies from the Tettenhall-based butcher's shop.
Residents in Wolverhampton can also apply to become a 'Robinsons Member of Pieliment', by submitting their pie manifesto at the Robinsons Facebook page.
Elected Pieliment Members will be awarded with one free medium pork pie.
Steve Robinson, owner of Robinsons Butchers & Deli, said “British Pie Week is a fantastic celebration of some of the best British products.
"We wanted to mark the occasion and give our customers something fun to get involved with.
“We look forward to electing and meeting our Robinsons Pieliment cabinet and can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with.”
Robinsons Butchers & Deli is a long-standing business in Wolverhampton, winning over 15 awards for their produce, including a renowned Smithfield Award for their Huntsman’s Pie last month.
The shop has also recently expanded to open its very own bistro, Seats at Robinsons, showcasing both its own and other local produce within the menu.
