These Are The Only Frozen Pot Pies Worth Your Time

Are there any pot pies that you think deserve a spot on this list?

Say what you will about Banquet pot pies, but at 17, in 1970, living alone in a ratty one room apartment, working PT at night and going to high school during the day, these pies saved my bacon. They were 10 for $1.00 back then, so I'd buy 20, half chicken, half beef, which lasted me a week. I did this for over 6 month's, until I graduated, turned 18, and got a fulltime job (also got a new apartment & some pots and pans). Now 71, and rarely eat pot pies, but when I do, it's always Banquet.

Marie Calendar's Chicken Pot Pie is my go to choice here, no doubt about it.

Marie Calendar’s are the best, but their nutritional info is a NIGHTMARE!

We keep Marie Calendar’s pot pies on hand for emergencies, we think it’s the best.

Im widowed, now live alone, and living on a fixed income, so simple inexpensive 'meals-for-one' are what I mostly eat. I like the Marie Callender large size (15 oz) pot pies. I like the creamy parmesan chicken or the plain chicken and can get them at Walmart for $3.50. I would give these pretty high marks for what you get for that price. Walmart used to carry the MC cheesy chicken & bacon pot pie but they stopped which is a shame as I really liked them too. I always bake them in the oven (not microwave) although they take an hour to cook. Thank you Paul

I love Banquet Chicken Pot pies... I cannot lie... 😋

To keep the crust from sticking to the pans, I remove the pie from the pan and put parchment paper in the pan before returning the pie to the pan and baking. I also shape foil rings to place around the edges (when preparing in oven) to keep them from burning.

I make chicken pot pie from scratch on occasion with leftover chicken or turkey. As a kid a banquet pot pie was a treat. Aldi's brand chicken pot pie hits the nostalgia for me. It's better than Banquet and less expensive. A guilty pleasure I indulge now and again. Homemade is still the best though.

I used to have a Banquet turkey pot pie at Thanksgiving and at Christmas. As I live alone, I'd share the cubes of turkey with my cat, Tiger, who loved it. The last one I shared with him only had 4 cubes of turkey in it.

I live in South NJ and am so glad there is an Amish market close to me. 100% homemade pot pies to die for!!

i am a 60 y/o white man from the state of Louisiana. ive been eating pot pies for over 50 years. my favorite pot pie is and continues to be Banquet Chicken pot pie, add 1/2 to 1 slice of American cheese with a shake of salt and black pepper microwaved for 5 minutes. i mix this all together and its yummy. for $1 to $1.50 each makes a great small meal.

I actually like the Banquet Turkey Pot Pie. At $1.40 each its hard to beat.

Whatever happened to Swanson Pot Pies? Over 4 decades ago when i was introduced to the wonderful world of cheap frozen foods, Swanson Chicken Pot Pies were my go to meal. They only came in one size(children's), had to be cooked in the oven & took forever to cook. I threw in at least 3 at a time & 3 pies were a decent meal & worth the wait. Where I live, I have only seen Banquet & Marie Calendar's in the stores. I get the Large size Marie Calendar's, in beef, chicken & turkey flavors only & am very happy with them. If the Banquet's go on sale for cheap, I am not ashamed to say I eat those too. I would love to try the other brands & would if I ever find them.

Boston Market and Marie Calendars are among my favorites.

If I'm buying pot pies, Marie Calendar Chicken Pot Pie (#3) is my go-to choice. I haven't heard of the top two choices before this video. Thank you for confirming Banquet Pot Pies being the worst on your list, as well as my list of the worst pot pie. As they say, you get what you pay for... or don't get - taste.

I'm addicted to Marie Calendar's chicken pot pies. I've tried Banquet and Boston Market but keep coming back to Marie's. 8-10oz at Costco is $15.29 right now.

Marie Calendar's from Costco when on sale. Decent, quick, cheap for when that's what you need. Keep seventeen years in the freezer.

The top two must be regional as I’ve never heard of either but the Centerville pot pie sure does look good!!!

I tried making my own chicken pot pie. I wanted something easy, quick, and enough for 2 meals. I got frozen pie crust already in a pie shell, dumped two cans Campbell's Chicken Corn Chowder soup, after draining off some of the juice into the pie crust. Covered the top with pie crust dough punching a few holes to vent, and baked in the oven. It wasn't a knock-out but was good, satisfying, and enough for another meal. Other soups can be substituted if you don't want Chicken Corn chowder.
