Steps:
- To make the filling, cook the bacon in a large skillet until crisp. Remove the bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon. Put 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat into a small container and freeze just until solid. Pour half of the remaining fat into another large skillet. Place the onion in one of the skillets and cook over medium-high heat until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Heat the other skillet and divide the cabbage between the two skillets. Cook over medium heat, tossing frequently, for 20 minutes. Combine the cabbage into 1 skillet. Stir in the salt, pepper, honey and sherry and cook until the cabbage is completely wilted and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 25 minutes more. Set aside.
- To make the crust, combine the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Rub in the butter and the chilled bacon fat until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Gradually stir in the ice water, being careful not to overwork the dough. Form into a ball, flatten into a disk and wrap in plastic. Chill for 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Peel, core and thinly slice the pears. Melt the butter in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the pears and saute until brown and soft, about 10 minutes. Set aside. Roll out the dough and fit it into a 9-inch pie plate. Line the dough with a large piece of aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or beans. Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil with the weights and bake until the crust is golden brown, about 10 minutes more.
- Press the cabbage mixture into the bottom of the pie shell. Top with the pear slices. Bake until heated through, about 15 minutes. Sprinkle the Stilton over the pears and bake just until melted, about 2 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose the right cabbage: Savoy cabbage is the best choice for this recipe, as it has a delicate flavor and tender leaves. If you can't find Savoy cabbage, you can use green cabbage, but it will be a bit tougher.
- Don't overcook the cabbage: The cabbage should be tender but still have a bit of crunch. Overcooked cabbage will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Use good quality bacon: The bacon is an important flavor component in this dish, so it's important to use good quality bacon that is flavorful and not too salty.
- Don't skimp on the cheese: The Stilton cheese adds a rich, creamy flavor to the pie. Use a good quality Stilton cheese that is flavorful and not too crumbly.
- Use ripe pears: The pears add a touch of sweetness and juiciness to the pie. Use ripe pears that are firm but not too soft.
- Bake the pie until the crust is golden brown: The pie is done baking when the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Conclusion:
Savoy cabbage pie with bacon, Stilton, and pears is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. The combination of flavors and textures in this pie is sure to please everyone at your table. Serve the pie with a side of mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables.
