5. I recently tried some Centerville brand pies.

I did like them more than the Marie Callendar's, although they cost significantly more (nearly double, by weight).

1. Centerville Pie Co.

Prepare to be blown away with Centerville Pie Co.'s frozen pot pies, where looks and taste are levels above the competition. This pie boasts a crust that is a sweet surprise, with a slight doughiness and just the right amount of flakiness that creates a harmonious texture that leaves you wanting more. But when it comes to the gravy, Centerville strikes the perfect balance, earning it a Goldilocks win. It's not too thin and not too thick — it's just right. The gravy envelopes the pie with a wealth of rich flavors, providing a luscious backdrop to the star ingredient — the chicken.

Ah, the chicken — here is where Centerville truly shines. Each bite reveals chunks of real, unprocessed chicken, clearly showing their commitment to quality ingredients. Juiciness permeates every morsel, making it an unforgettable experience. While predominantly featuring white meat, the presence of a few dark pieces showcases the use of a whole bird, adding depth and complexity to the flavor profile. As for nutrition, just under 1 cup of pie is only 410 calories with only 460 milligrams of sodium. The flavor is real with this comfort classic, and the taste just can't be beat.

With a visually appealing presentation and exceptional flavors, Centerville Pie Co.'s frozen pot pies capture the essence of a lovingly crafted pie and our first-place spot. From the sweet and doughy crust to the Goldilocks gravy, every aspect is carefully balanced to create a memorable experience. And with real chicken, the rest of the competition doesn't stand a chance. This one is a must-try!
