Local bakery Brownings has produced the pie for the club since 2003, and it is also sold in Aldi, SPAR and selected Scotmid stores in Scotland.[1] Following a trademark dispute between the bakery and the football club, the bakery’s retail product was renamed to "Kilmarnock Pie" in 2017.[1]
The pie is somewhat unusual for being a steak pie and not a Scotch pie, the type of pie normally associated with football in Scotland.[2]
History
It won the award for best pie in football two years running[3] and is popular among away fans for its quality.[4]
It is made by Brownings the Bakers of Kilmarnock,[5] who sponsored Kilmarnock from 2020–2023.
