There are 3 reasons why proper pie shop pies are typically better than pies sold at bakeries… 1) Pie shops use flour that is best suited to short crust pastry. Bakeries just use bread flour. 2) Pie shops usually grate cold butter into the flour and lightly hand knead it. Bakeries typically use cheap butter or lard and use their mixer with a dough hook to (over) knead it. 3) Far and away the biggest difference is pie shops cook their pies in steel pie trays and keep them warm as just the pie in a pie warmer. Bakeries typically make their pies in foil pie tins. Foil doesn’t conduct heat. It doesn’t get hot. So the pie base doesn’t cook properly and is always soft. Then in the pie warmer the pastry sweats in the foil tin and becomes even soggier. I cringe when I see pies in foil tins as it’s lazy and you know it’s going to be soggy.
Good work GregO and who doesn’t love it when it bursts out the back... definitely needed that silver tray to catch the guts of it... Might have to try one of these when I’m down Hawthorne/ Bulimba way... Pretty solid range there and even selling curries at a bakery ‘ey...? Cheers Gibbo
That looks delish! I am hoping to get back to Vanuatu soonish! If only Brisbane would let me stay until Air Vanuatu decides to have a flight. Nice to see you after so many years! Thanks Greg!
Hey Greg do you think you could do playlists by town? I've got a mate from NSW who is in Brisbane, Gold Coast and Cairns a fair bit but I can't find the reviews from each place to recommend to him. Especially for the smaller non-chain shops like this one or fish and chip shops would be good.
Aww Greg. Sitting here at 10.30pm on Sunday night, could really go one of those pies at the moment. If you haven't been to the Outpost Cafe at Canungra yet, you really have to try one of their Chunky Steak pies, incredible.
Greg should write a guide to Australian food for tourists. Also I’m super jealous of the selection of Aussie trucks and utes you guys have down there. Australia seems like such an amazing place. Cheers all.
Why is it sweet? It contains some TVP, maybe? TVP is textured vegetable protein, made from the soya bean. It is slightly sweet, probably because it's made in the USA and they put sugar in everything. Most pie makers buy TVP in dry granules and add it to the meat as an "extender" because it's cheaper than meat but colossal in protein content. I add one cupfull to my own mushroom pie (no meat at all) and it produces a beautifully gooey filling like the one in this pie! If you didn't know you would think it's minced beef, it's the exact same texture. I've stopped using mince since I discovered this stuff (trying to be more plant based in my diet, and saving money, and not killing animals).
G'd morning Greg'o. Mmm that's just the way I like my pies.. with the pastry lid just sitting on top. That was one delicious looking and by the sound of it tasty pie. @ $5 is ringing it in a bit though. Speaking of tomato sauce in the meat flavour, Coles has just added 3 New flavours to their brand range. Tomato Sauce, Burrito and Cheeseburger pies. 2 in a pack. Check them out for a review please, I'm interested in your opinion. Cheers Mate 👍 Enjoy the Anzac Day our Diggers are remembered for.
Can you review Maleny Bakery chunky steak pie? It wont best pie 2020. Would love to get your opinion on it. Personally, I think my own pie recipe is better but still it won for a reason! Also highly recommend their coffee if you go there, it was the best cappuccino I've ever had.
Pies 🥧 look ok , I don't think they get any better than the pies I've had in newzealand tho , anyway next time I'm over there ill post a review on my channel
In Jomtien THAILAND Aussie meat pies $6.17. I'll give him 4 outa 10, given cost of ingredients, location, staff wages and rent. No i'll make that 3.5 outa 10.
Hey Greg. I’m an Aussie in the U.K. I came across a channel similar to yours here. I think it’s fairly new. It’s called ‘ Rate My Take Away. He’s pretty good. Check it out, but not as good as you.
This proves that smell is very important, that filling looks like something i'd find under a dead animal but the food smells makes it tasty instead of hell no!!!
Have a great ANZAC day Greg, lest we forget.

yeah that'd be good. the bakery itself gave it a 5 Chilli star rating so you'd think it'd be pretty bloody hot

I remember in the good old days (the 80's) where a meat pie cost 50c.
at School with a Cream Bun and a chocolate milk to follow up😋
Yep me too. It then went on to the working days with a Big Ben Pie. But they were $1.50 when I started work.

No way will the "Make you Cry" Pie make our Grego cry!
I mean.... it won't will it..........🤔
I don't need hot spice because the price of Pies these days alone makes me cry😲
