Exactly - and we are in full agreement, which is why I only ever eat homemade steak (or game) pies, or those from our local butcher, so I know what's gone into them. I simply don't do offal, or eat fatty crap. I'm also similarly fussy with sausages, which often the same applies to (such as you've described above).
However, I'm not terribly keen on even the best pork pies (I've had some good ones from Melton Mowbray, for example), as they tend to be a little stodgy, and I'm not big on eating cold pies. I like pies served warm, with a nice rich gravy.
Barry, Scotch eggs with runny centres and a crispy shell are fab (and indeed how the best ones should be served). See here, which is how I've had them at the pubs in question: https://www.nerdswithknives.com/scotch-eggs-runny-yolk/
Read how they *should* be made, and often how they're not!
