The Galloway Pie is from The Little Bakery, Dumfries and is the first Galloway Cattle Society accredited product developed in connection with Real Galloway Beef quality assurance scheme.
Thousands of visitors are expect to descend on the grounds of Drumlanrig Castle for this years Galloway Country Fair during August 17-18.
The fair will offer lots of delightful treats for foodies with focus on local Dumfriesshire produce.
It will also have high-octane stunts with World Champion trail bike rider Dougie Lampkin MBE and quad bike stunt man Paul Hannam will thrill visitors with breath-taking jumps.
