Why Aren’t Americans Into Meat Pies?

- Meat pies should be as American as apple pie. Professional carnivore Nick Solares grew up eating meat pies in the UK and has often wondered why they aren’t more popular in the US. He visits chef Angie Mar of the Beatrice Inn who is one of the few chefs serving them in NYC to eat and talk more about why this dish would be absent stateside.

When i was in new Zealand, they had pies like steak n cheese, mince beef n cheese, bacon n egg, spinach n feta. Had one everyday Amazing
mince and cheese is my favorite!
Bless you.
Potato top pie is delicious. I was amazed when I found out Americans don't eat meat pies (not to say all don't)
@@liamkeepa4239 The best pies aren't in the supermarkets; they're from private bakeries that'll have a wee selection of the days bake.
SiliconBong I don't buy supermarket pies
what do you do after a woman serves you duck confit and marrow pot pie, go to the jewelry store and buy a wedding ring
no I'd just eat the pie
Proposing marriage is the only civilized and decent thing to do, especially in this case. Good thinking iphonevids.
Agreed. Angie is amazing AND she served him!
You offer to clean up.
Marriage proves nothing. Save your $ buy a car together ...
As a Brit living in Canada and a frequent visitor to the US, I have often wondered why the meat pie culture did not catch on in North America. On my travels around the world I've eaten delicious meat pies in South Africa and Australia, both former British colonies. I've been making my own Pork Pies from scratch for a few years now to make up for the lack of pies locally, my Brit friends love them.
As an American I often wonder the same
back then at the time of american revolution, they don’t have meat so they use fruits and sweets instead
blame the british
@@IDarkCalibur They had Bison
@@sydsaturn3337 then there should be bison pie
@@IDarkCalibur and Raccoon and possum with french fries lol
Meat pies, or pasties, are a traditional food staple in Northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula.
The bone acts as a "pie bird,"
venting the pie and steam-
cooking the marrow at the same time.
what a splendid dish.
As an american... I want these pies and I have just now grown an animosity towards my fellow Yankee brethren for depriving me of these meat-y joys my whole life.
Would you like Freys with that pie?
ewwwwwww
lol i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/facebook/000/000/681/what-you-did-there-i-see-it.thumbnail.jpg
What is up with his confusing accent. Sometimes American sometimes English.
+stuff Nick split it his time growing up between both countries.
+Eater interesting
hahahaha omg that was the first thing i noticed
he's a wannabe english?
That happens when you live in different countries for awhile. Certain words always come out differently, hence the accent changes.
"chicken is a delicious vegetable"
I don't think the chicken would agree on that :D
My dad however probably would. XD
im American...i love a good mincemeat pie...oh and you seem to be ignoring the Potpie, which is basically a meat stew, in a pie.
@JW McCabe its common all over the U.S. im in the pnw and I grew up eating pot pies
Background music irritating. Unnecessary.
That looked fantastic. I live in Australia we have meat pies and they are wonderful, but nothing at all like what I just saw. I love our Aussie meat pies, but would be super happy to try something like this.
Mhm, our meet pies tend to be just minced beef and gravy- not that there’s anything wrong with that
I spent a great deal of time in Britain and absolutely love meat pies. They make a splendid dinner with mashed or roasted potatoes, green vegetables and a few pints!
Omg when she described the ingredients I about lost my mind! I'm an American and I have to say those pies sound SO FREAKING GOOD that I'm gonna learn how to make them!
I've seen this woman on a whole bunch of different cooking channels, always guest-starring and making something different, and everything she makes looks AMAZING.
They are called pot pies in the southern U.S. and I've been eating them since I was a kid.
RagingUtai Both, although in the North (NJ) I’ve rarely seen them at restaurants or anywhere else. Mostly just frozen.
RagingUtai You can get them fresh or frozen.
From what I understand pot pies don't seem to have a bottom crust, they're pot pies because the filling is put in a pot, and a pastry lid is enclosed over it.
American meat pies will never be as good as a classic Aussie meat pie!!!
malenotyalc, apparently they're not really meat pies unless a big ass bone is sticking out of it
Why Aren't Americans into Meat Pies? Well, there's something called... Hamburger.
+donbasuradenuevo that's a sandwich, or a type of sandwich. not quite your everyday pie.
OMG they are nothing like hamburgers meat pies are all the human race should eat i mean i cried looking at your comment i cried because your so STUPID MEAT PIES ARE NOT HAMBURGERS so plz for the love of GOD try a meat pie and you will be cured of your stupidity
Ps i am not trying to be rude just trying to prove a point which doesn't need to be proved with words it needs to be proved with a meat pie so go find a place to buy one i live in Australia so there easy to find but wherever u live you can find one or make one and then u can eat a MEATPIE
+donbasuradenuevo You don't really get to say that since you capitalised "meat pies" and even "hamburger".
sidesw1pe
"Meat Pies" was capitalized because it was intended to be part of the title. "Hamburger" was capitalized for dramatic and emphatic purposes. Maybe I should have quoted both instances, but these overlooks are not as cancerous, erroneous, and childish as confusing "your" and "you're". Thanks for your attention.
I spent my summer in London for an internship and developed a ridiculous addiction to pasties, sausage rolls and steak and ale pies and then came back to the U.S. and realized the only way to get my hands on a decent pie is to make it myself...it's kind of the worst lol. On the flip side, in London I made American style flapjacks for my British friends and realized I had to do the same.
Jeremy Schooler sounds like a business opportunity more than anything
Jeremy Schooler I had spent a great of time in Britain and simply love a meat pie ! I make them at home but here are some websites for some domestically produced meat pies :
www.Parkersbritishinstitution.com
www.Pure Pasty.com
I saw a video about this type of pie recently. I mentioned something about Popeyes and someone said that this isn't a pot pie so now I'm figuring out why.
I make my pie crusts with lard AND butter. It's the traditional way to make pie crust instead of using shortening.
Also, I love any kind of pie. Meat pie, fruit pie, mini pies, etc. So good!
While chicken pot pie is the most common meat pie in the USA (Swanson sells a lot of frozen pot pies, most of them chicken), I remember eating Swanson beef pot pies as well when I was younger. It's been several years since I had a Swanson frozen pot pie of any kind, but I'm totally open to eating meat pies made with beef, pork, lamb, venison, bison, etc. I'm also surprised that they're not as popular in the US as they are in the UK and Australia. I would think they would be, especially since chicken pot pie is still so popular that KFC has it on their menu (and they do a really good one, too). Also, pie-like handheld treats like Hot Pockets have various kinds of meat in them, so why not make a more traditional pie using items like ham & cheese and pepperoni & sausage with mozzarella & pizza sauce in a pie? I think those could be very popular if they're made right.
This video has changed my life in that I shall refer to chicken as a vegetable for the rest of my life. Red meat or bust!
Ada Frost You aren't the first my cousin said his favorite vegetable was chicken no joke.
it tastes like absolutely nothing without spices, pork, lamb, beef, game everything has an actual taste chicken not so much, its basically the tofu of meat.
yes there are good chicken dishes but thats cuz they a drenched in sauces or fried.
American here... I grew up eating meat pies. Maybe because all of the grandparents were from the UK (Ireland and one from England). I've made one at least once a week for the last 30 years and now my kids love them too.
Most Americans of French Canadian heritage are very familiar with meat pies. We call it tourtière.
Please lower the volume of music. I am straining to hear the conversation. I have no idea why we have to blare music no matter the content.
as an Australian and a meat poie lover I approve of the movement to get more Americans to eat meat poies.
If we want a meat pie we'll go to England.
as an american I love meat pies, the best restaurant in my opinion near me is a pub and pie restaurant. I had their steak and ale pie and I was hooked, it was one of the best meals Ive had.
It's kinda neat to hear a bit of New York accent mixed in with his British accent. And, excellent looking pies, btw! I love meat pies!!!! And I'm American! 👍🏽
Frankly I've always wondered the same thing. I grew up eating and loving frozen chicken pot pies, which are something of a rarity at restaurants. Don't get it.
+TINY_TIGERS, It take too long to prepare for most USA chefs.
+David Hoffman that's ridiculous, what are you talking about?
TINY_TIGERS, Real chefs are going to want to make it from scratch, not from premade frozen. The need for consistent crust quality would probably deter many chefs from doing that. I have seen more than a few chefs talk about how the bakery part of the job can be the most frustrating and time consuming. They just avoid anything that would involve the need for excellent crusts. If you have a large enough restaurant then maybe you hire a bakery expert to deal with those items. Some chefs have the admirable attitude that if they cannot prepare an item properly then they are not going to have it on the menu.
+David Hoffman Dude, you don't know wtf you're talking about. I work at a restaurant, pie crusts are NOT difficult at all, there is NO need whatsoever for a "bakery expert" to make a perfectly delicious and viable pie crust. The question this video is asking is, "Why aren't these more popular?" not, "Why can't americans figure out how to make these?"
Two thoughts: First, interesting comment about great chips in England fried in beef fat. McDonald's used to do that, until vegetarians complained. Never been as good since. Second, while pies I've had in England are not as intense as the ones in the video, they are closer to that than they are to Australian meat pies (which I also love). How did Aussie pies end up so different from British ones. (But at least they did hang on to meat pies.)
I grew up in Los Angeles, my Mom is from Michigan by way of Brooklyn, and we ate homemade Pasties. Our Nanny, from South Hampton, cried when my Mom name them the first time after she arrived. Even put the pudding on the end. And wonderful fish pies.
My first exposure to meat pie as a couple decades ago at a ren faire, in the form of small Scottish style hand pies. As an American carnivore, I too wonder why this hasn't become a thing in my country. I do make my own meat pies, usually a bacon-cheeseburger affair, and much larger than what got me started with full-sized 9 and 10 inch pies. I'm a little lazy, though, and don't make my own pie crusts; instead relying on store-bought pie crust dough... but I'm no chef, I just want to get to the eating.
come to Australia, pies are very popular down here... steak and kidney are one of my favs
+Davie Crockett Your pies are horrible... come to New Zealand for good pies, ya'll.
Camryn Brown haha, got to get in on everything you Kiwis. I'm not talking about footy pies, gourmet pies baked by specialists. Heaps of them here.
Maybe... but our design predates yours by 30 years.
Agree!
Australia's pies are not that great when I went to New Zealand their pies were 100x better
when I read the title, I was like I love meaty pies. then I saw the first two pies, and I was like too meaty man
ratha bun I've never identified with something so much.
Meat pies aren't common in America but you can find them in some places. Here in Brooklyn we have one establishment called Dub Pies that makes a lot of British and Australian style meat pies as well as savory vegetarian pies. Chicken pot pies are a pretty traditional American staple though and most grocery stores have them frozen.
I feel like all of the press I've ever read about the Beatrice Inn has been about it's social scene. How have I never known about these spectaular bits of savory pastry before? If these are even half as delightful as they appear, I will gladly put up with dining in a room full of journalists, celebrities, and other undesireables.
Natchitoches, Louisiana is famous for their hand-held meat pies. One of my favorite dishes served with "dirty" rice.
Carol Melancon this channel doesn't really explore anything about unique regional American culture they are basically opulence and elitism. I'm familiar with Natchitoches and it's wonderful food faire, but Eater caters to the 6 figure crowd and tends not to rub elbows with the middle class and below which is quite sad because they miss alot, but that's part of the coastal mindset.
Yep. Been there several times.
senecawind yooper wait you should watch Lucas then because his series is the complete opposite of what you just described. I think you just described Nick.
Carol Melancon I’m eating one right now lol
We definitely need more pie exposure in this country lol
I'm pretty sure the only reason meat pues aren't more popular in the US is flat out because there aren't enough restaurants/companies making them. If they were easier to come by and there were some mass produced brands, they'd be significantly popular
There was an english pork pie shop near where I grew up in Massachusetts that is still in business.. I grew up eating them and adore them. I now make them at home usually with just pork or sausage inside. But I make many varieties of a standing crust meat pie. YUM
Meat pies sound dirty. Think about it. You take your meat, stuff it into a pie, and before you know it, there's a little something baking in the oven..
+Joshua Tunis I Googled Meat Pie and all got back was a bunch of porn sites.
lmao
It's the prelude to a cream pie
KFC is even worse, some breast, then some thigh and finally a nice hot greasy box to put your bone in.
@@sheikhyaboooty 😂😂😂
Someone needs to make a trip down to Natchitoches, Louisiana.
Brooks Tarkington Do they have good nachos as well as meat pies?
I'm kind of curious, American viewers, has tourtière found its way down south? It's a traditional French-Canadian dish, but can be found in meat shops all throughout Canada. Basically, It's a meat pie made of minced pork and/or beef (sometimes with other meats; I've had a salmon tourtière once and it was amazing) with onions and spices thrown into the mix.
Yes, you can get tourtière in many of the local diners in the old French Canadian neighborhoods of New England and every family has their own special recipe passed down through the generations.
I grew up eating Thwaits pork pies north of Boston. That same meat pie shop is still there and they are very popular.
I don;t want bones sticking out of my pie. Bring me food not your class art project. I am however, entirely sure if that was put in front of me....I'd eat it.
Yeah it doesn't look appetising to me with bones sticking out
True
All that hipster flair can go.
Save that for the snobby rich bastards...
Bones = Flavour
Would you rather have pies containing processed meat?
Arya Stark's meat pie are the best!
I'm an American and love meat pies actually hard to find them here if you want them you have to make them yourself!!
Today I learned that Nick wasn't American. His accent is so light most of the time I forget entirely and just assume he's a snooty rich guy from the States. LOL
I love the Asian girl !!
I too am surprised at how we Americans don't eat more meat pies. Meat is like our favorite food!
We like it seared on a grill not braised in its own juices. Notice we're not really huge on stews either.
Not sure that's true considering the popularity of chili.
Chili is cooked with ground beef. Americans love ground beef. We don't care for offal parts at all though, which many pies are made out of. Honestly meat pie just doesn't sound appetizing to me at all. I like steak.
Not all chili is cooked with ground beef, by the way. Often times cubed up bits of roast or steak, or sometimes pork, is used instead of ground beef. Those chilis are more for serving on its own as a meal, with ground beef is better as like a topping as seen in chili cheese fries or chili dogs.
holy crap! that looks amazingly good! i would drive out 3 hours tops to have a taste if theres any restaurants with meatpies within california!
I really mish Cornish pasties specifically, those are my jam. Especially when the weather is sad and cold.
I think he means:
Why aren't Americans into BRITISH meat pies. Somewhat pretentious. Even so, British pies can be incredibly delicious, especially game pies.
Exactly. Conversely, why aren't British into American meat pies?
MrStensnask Like what game? Venison?
@@dolphinboi-playmonsterranc9668 Commercial "game" is really just agriculturally grown animals that are not pigs, cows, or chickens. The ducks and venison that you eat in restaurants are never wild-caught- that's actually illegal for most terrestrial wild animals- so basically any farmed animal that's a little bit on the fringe of our palates is considered "game". This is why many (including myself) hunt, ya get to eat ethically harvested, free-range animals that have had natural and quality lives for basically free lol
answer: Sweeney Todd.
Sarah Beardsley YUUUUSSS
I've been a fan for a while.
This is great stuff
Two words: hot pockets
LOL
TriviaMaster haha!
Pocket pies
I see. A man of cultural
ok...they look delicious, and obviously they were.....but c'mon......pies were meant as an inexpensive filling meal......but duck confit, and 20 day aged beef?......I wonder what these pies go for at this restaurant......I'm sure you can craft a pie that is just as tasty without the need for high end ingredients.....
+FMHammyJ THANK YOU I was just thinking what kind of hoity toity crap is this?
+caligogreywings Bit pretentious, isn;t it.......Im sure the high end ingredients make them especially tasty....but they;re missing the whole point of pies.... taking ordinary relatively inexpensive ingredients and turning it into something very tasty, filling, and affordable.....
+FMHammyJ actually it can almost be the opposite different cuts have different ideal cooking times, hence why cheapeer cuts were used due to high fat content giving flavour and the cook time allowed the tough meat to become soft and tender, high end cus dont need this, the marbelling and structure of muscle allows shorter cooking times for optimum flavour, cooking for too long can ruin these cuts
+bidhrohi12 ...You're probably correct.....and who am I to criticize how a well to do person spends their coin.....I just thought gentrification applied to cities, neighbourhoods and eateries.....not to the food itself.....but in the days of the $100 philly cheese steak...why should I be surprised?.....and Im sure the Beatrice Inn is a lovely restaurant in a very expensive city, so they need to charge high prices to make it....also has the added bonus of keeping riff-raff like me out......lol
+FMHammyJ, Well stated.
The beauty of eating a meat pie is the simplicity of it all and not having to use a knife or fork, or deal with BONES lol
i don't think i've ever had a meat pie but i've always wanted one. i think weirdly watching sweeney todd made me really want one lol. but yeah i've always loved pot pies and it seems like a no brainer.
Ways to make it Americanised/Americanized:
1. Put heaps of butter.
2. Put bacon.
3. Deep fry it.
4. Put American cheese.
5. Apply whip cream.
6. Apply chocolate syrup.
7. Drizzle it with 'ketchup/tomato sauce'
8. More bacon.
Pretty much haha
+Xilen7, I can see the dishes being popular in Texas or places where they do BBQ without sweet sauces. Ossobuco is popular in many places, so the bone in aspect is not an automatic veto. The long preparation time is what might be a turn off. Also many cooks have a difficult time getting crusts to consistently come out correctly. The butter aspect may be true depending on what the cook has learned about making crusts. Bacon is dying out as a trendy food additive.
David Hoffman
Let me guess what's next after bacon-- tofu.
The hipsters/vegans are coming. Brace yourselves.
Xilen7 don't forget to throw a couple of pancakes on top to finish it off lol
Steak chesse and bacon pie is one of the best pies .
Meat pies are huge in South Africa
And they're the best!
Aussie meat pie eater forever,lived in the US for many years,most seppo's have never tasted one,it's not like there is a pie shop on every corner here,but when they do try them they love them,that simple.
those close-ups lol
very tempting btw
forget the meat pies, who's the cutie pie? she's hott!
Get in the sea
and she's out there LOL! and good fisherman fishes where there's good catch...
sir Winslow she looks 50
She has way too much makeup on and horrible bronzer.
Bronzer shmonzzer - she thinks of chicken as a moderately tasty vegetable and she cooks like she does. She is the most attractive woman on earth! I don't care if she has a bronze leg and dog breath!
"Is it like home??"
-"It's better than home"
"So that is where you were exposed.. to a meat pie." "Well college was a blur but that I can remember, yes."
Those pies look amazing. The flavours would be incredible!!
one movie, the demon barber...
Bo Huggabee YUUUUSSSS SWEENEY TODD
Okay, I thought the Romans invented the pastry with lard for pies. However, doesnt matter who invented the meat pies, I just know for sure that Australians Perfected it. :)
Man I visited Aussie a couple of years ago. I was pumped as usual to try the food there. I thought I'd be eating roo, and koalas and snakes and shit like that. So one of the first things I asked the locals was "Whats the most Australian dish there is? Poutine is to Canada as what is to Australia?" The reply? "Umm...nothing in particular, maybe a meat pie." I was bummed to hear that. You did have some solid meat pies though and even better beaches. After a few months there though, I can safely say Vegemite is the unofficial Australian food product, and I hate it lol. Tim-tams are a close second and are actually amazing though.
Danny L - by the way, Egyptians and Romans invented pies many centuries ago.
You have to remember, Australia isnt that old and has an English background, so there isnt going to be anything really Australian Food. Plus, with so much different cultures here, most foods people wont know what is Australian anymore. Plus so many things to choose from. I am not from an Australian background myself, am born and bred here and love this Country so much. Anyhow, here is a list of Foods that Australians have invented or perfected:
* Vegemite - the reason you didnt like it because you probably didnt do it right. So Aussies think its super funny, by putting too much on and watching tourists face go funny.
* Pavlova
* Weet-Bix
* Sausage Sangers
* BBQ techniques and what to cook on them, eventually Italians here placed even more on BBQs and now most things, doesnt matter what can be cooked on BBQs here.
*Lamingtons
*Anzac Biscuits
* Neenish Tarts
* Splices
* Golden Gaytime
* Chicko Roll
* Tim Tams
* Damper
* Burger with the lot
* Fish and Chips - perfected
* Meat Pies - perfected
* Dagwood Dogs
* Chicken Parmigiana
* Pie Floater
* Frog Cakes
* Fruit Chocs
and many more.....
You can buy products here, that has Kangaroo, Emu etc in but because its so expensive to buy, some places dont sell it. You can buy Kangaroo meat here and there and some restaurants have it on their menu, but if its not cooked right, people tend not to like it. To me, it only has the flavours you give it, but a very very health meat to eat.
I guess thats it for now... take care...
PS. Cant eat Koala, that is so not right, plus they carry a virus, not good.
bitch Pavlova is from nz and your food is shit compared to ours ( our fish and chips and meat pies are way more perfected and more common here )
Tyla Z - Gosh, I guess you havent gotten laid in awhile?? Dont call me a bitch!!! Everyone knows our Fish and Chips (at least we know how to say Chips, you guys say it like it sounds like Chops and we are listed as the best in the world by the way) and our Meat Pies (same here) and there is still a debate on who invented the Pavlova. Please stay in New Zealand and eat your own food and shut the fuck up and be fucking nice and dont show the world how fucken Rude Kiwis are!! Fuck without Australia your fucken little island wouldnt be safe!!! Okay, and after what the Anzacs went through I thought you would be a little nicer to your Allies and the kiwis here love living off our Dole, huh. Geez.
we have KO Pies in Boston, Massachusetts. fairly authentic Australian meat pies. I have to agree with you.
I think meat pies are mostly about being a neat, packaged presentation.
If meat pies were truly that great tasting they you could just serve meat with pie crust as a side. But you don't do that - cause other sides are usually tastier.
Us Americans have this weird idea that you can do anything with chicken and red meat should be steak, roasts, or ground into a shape. Idk why. But thank anything and everything I met someone who made a family recipe Shepard's Pie. Loved it from the first bite and haven't looked back since. I have tried meat pies and blood puddings and I haven't met one I haven't like yet.
I eat chicken pot pie from KFC does that count?
+elysium76 no.
+terri-louise Lawlor chicken's meat
+Matt Darling yeah but pot pies are not the same as the kind of pies he is talking about.
"Meat pies should be as American as apple pie"
For a channel that likes to know the history behind cuisines, they should be well aware that apple pie has German origins, not American. Lol.
Michael Kawamura it's a saying dude
Actually the Chinese invented the burger. So it’s not even German. And the French stole the fries, so that sucks for Belgium.
Michael Kawamura Apple pie is the most liked pie throughout America.
We are. We call them pot pies. Been popular for a long time. Where have you been?
Beth G. + Beth, our pies are garbage compared to the Aussie and Brits.
Yes they are, lol. But we have had them for a long time.
We have Jamaican beef patties but most people buy them frozen as a microwaveable
1) There is no cheese on it.
2) It isn't deep fried.
3) Too much work.
+Delveaux Fucking American.
+Matt W Wow, the joke flew by your head by a million miles
Yes you can, Here in Australia they have long narrow pies called traveller pies that are meant to be eaten single handed.
It's called a McDonalds apple pie...
😂🤣😂True but Pecan pie can be alot of work
eating my meat pie in new zealand while watching this mmmmm new zealand has the best
Yay New Zealand!
OMG those look so good!
That looks amazing
These are the most pretentious meat pies I have ever seen.
A Small Babby wrong word, guy.
A Small Babby not the word I was talking about lol. I'm not a stickler over spelling/grammar these days.
I think you may have misread the comment you originally replied to.
Pretentious. Not pretending. I cant tell if you were making some kind of joke that went over my head or made a simple mistake.
A Small Babby that was no joke you are just really stupid
Joshua Sisco nah they look hella good and its not overkill steak and kidney pie and a duck i would happily pay for those 2
she´s one beautiful Taiwanese lady
+crankylifter LMFAO
In USA they are called pot pies. But they're cheap at the grocery store. Turkey, Beef, and Chicken pot pies with peas and carrots and little bots of potatoes with a little gravy and bits of meat or poultry.
Love his mixed accent!
Don't know what you're talking about. Meat pie has been one of my family's fav since I was little. Just made one last week. Ours is made with hamburger, potato, chopped onion, a little mustard, ketchup, Worchestershire sauce, and 1 t of kitchen bouquet. Thicken with a slurry of cornstarch and water, baked in a deep dish pie pan with a double pie crust. It's delicious! Personally I wouldn't eat a meat pie made out of game, with big bones sticking out. It looks gross
+Sandra D it may look gross, but to me, any dish with bones in it tells me I'm going to taste some nice delicious marrow flavor.
+jaklumen yes I see your point, if you like marrow, but the idea of picking something out of the middle of a bone and eating it just doesn't appeal to me. #eatingwithmyeyesfirst
listen bitch. that ketchup in that piece of shit pie of yours sounds gross enough already.
+Uchiha Itachi hahaha Jesus Christ that was a 9 alarm fire you started there. Roasted. I have to agree her pie sounds shit.
+Alexander Baker haha , yes. Piece of shit pie.
wtf is that pie imposter thing?!?
Right? I was just speaking to my American friend & mentioned that I've cooked a steak pie for dinner and she was so confused! Steak pie and meat pies in general should be a thing everywhere!
“So that is where you were exposed to a meat pie” lol
The real reason:
"I'm going to use this great short rib to make a meat pie."
"Why don't you just make a burger?"
Look up meat pie on urban dictionary lol, in all honesty it doesn't look appetizing with the bone just sticking out of the crust.
That looks absolutely delicious
As an Englishman living in Washington I can tell you that Americans love meat pies. They've just got to have to have somebody from Blighty or the colonies make it for them.
what's blighty?
the bones sticking out don't look too appetising
Have you ever tried bone marrow? I personally think it's amazing.
Oh for fucks sake for the last time, MOST BRITISH PEOPLE DON'T EVEN LIKE STEAK AND KIDNEY PIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
not only that, these pies are nothing like British pies.
kmurder02 British food is some of the best. Maybe not so Inviting, but there is some really good shit that we have here. You can say this about any country.
Just because you don't like a small portion of British food, doesn't mean it is factually the worst food in the world. I bet you have never even been here for more than a year. and I bet you haven't even tasted real British food.
TiggrrZ...complete nonsense. Brits have been everywhere and their food didnt stick anywhere except Australia. No one likes yer nosh. Get over it.
“You cannot trust people who have such bad cuisine. It is the country with the worst food after Finland.”.... Jacques Chirac. lololololol.
***** Your argument is absolutely ridiculous. Can you even go one sentence without using immature childish insults? No, which proves that you are a little kid and know nothing of this world. Case closed.
Lol. In my area, meat pie means essentially means a Sicilian dish, pretty much an inside out pizza loaded with cheese and Italian sausage.
These weren't pies. These were stews covered in dough. Pies are portable, easy to wrap and put in your bag treats. They don't spill or require bowls to serve them on. Cornish pasties are my personal favorite.
too much work, too messy, and looks unappealing. after its dished.
get the silly bone out if it. if you see that up north you will get your southern arse kicked in ;)
as someone from the north, fuck off with that nonsense. the bone is phenomenal. you should demand they don't withhold that delicious marrow.
I agree..Its easy to get marrow in the bone in Dallas but not a meat pie..it may be too labor intensive for restaurants to make (at a price that would sell)
My hometown is known for the meatpie but ummm...it doesn't look like this. 👀🤔🤷🏽♀️

I grew up eating beef pot pies. The absolutely best ones we're from Horn and Hardart's people from the Philadelphia area and New York City will know what I'm talking about when I say Horn & Hardart's automat. One of their beef pies and two of their Club rolls with butter and I was in heaven.
We call these pot pies and Americans like them. Meat pies are something different, a half moon shape you can hold in your hand and we love those two. Most Americans don't know the one you're eating so it is a case of needing to intro it not that we aren't into it.
