[email protected]This pie was a bit too gamey for my taste, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best partridge pie he's ever had.

[email protected]I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of gamey meats, but I was pleasantly surprised. The partridge was cooked perfectly and the pears added a nice sweetness. The crust was also very good.
