Is meat pie and Shepards pie the same thing?“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

I'm not a pie expert by any stretch of the imagination so I can't give you a technical answer. However I can tell you for sure that the meat pies I'm speaking off are totally different from Shepards pie.

The pies from Wallers was not quite as deep or "tall" as the ones you posted. But the general look was the same. Just smaller.Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

It's kind of hard to explain. But if I had to compare the taste of the sauce to something, it favored a real deep beef stew flavor.GratefulJason said:Can you describe the sauce?Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.

the ones i posted from the butcher shop are maybe 3 inches across and a little over 1.5 tall. he uses a press for the crusts that came over on a boat in the late 1800's. if i ever get a heart attack someday its from either eating these pies or they closed the shop. its one of those creaky floors, old wooden shelves kind of place, the women making the pies are around 90 years of ageSGH said:@fishlessman

been using these lately, the disk slides down and you push the pie up and out, about a 4 inch high pub pie. made by silverwood. i also make an italian sausage pie and set it in a bowl of tomato sauce, just pie crust and fresh italian sausage with the broth added

And are there veggies in the pie?SGH said:It's kind of hard to explain. But if I had to compare the taste of the sauce to something, it favored a real deep beef stew flavor.
Is it possible, given that he's a butcher, that he's doing beef and pork braise cooked cooked in a super flavorful, gelatinous stock? Maybe that's been reduced almost to a gravy, in the French fashion? -
Many moons ago we'd visit a place in Minden, NE Pioneer Village. They made some extraordinary true Old West Hearty Meat Pies. & some of the Best (off-topic I know) Minced Meat Pies. It's been probably 35 yrs since I was there so, they may no longer do this today. They were made start to finish in front of visitors. I'll have to dig up some old memoirs to see if I can locate one of my Grandmother's or Grandfather's recipes. Nostalgic for me to say the least.LBGE 2013 & MM 2014Die Hard HUSKER & BRONCO FANFlying Low & Slow in "Da Burg" FL

they were pricey, i think 15 each, but i wanted them to use in the mini. 3 fit my mini kub, about 3 inches round, 4 inches deep. i use them for the pies and mini deep deep dish pizzas. one meat pie that size is pretty fillingBiggreenpharmacist said:What size are those? Are they expensive?

I am a French Canadian and "tourtière" is a tradition around here. I usually help my mom prepare a ton of them around Christmas time. Have a look at this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tourtière
We make the "Montreal" version with a mix of ground beef, pork and veal (not too lean). The meat is browned with some onions and then seasoned with salt, pepper, cinnamon, cloves, allspice, sage and sometime other spices. Water is then added to the meat mix. We let it simmer for a while until the liquid has reduced. I am now going to tell you a secret: we use tea instead of water. In fact, for the last few years, we have been using chai.
After letting the meat mixture cool down, we fill pie crusts with it and then freeze the tourtière until we are ready to bake them.
I don't have the exact recipe with me right now but it looks a lot like this one : http://spicetrekkers.com/tourtiere/
Here's what I have in the freezer right now. On the left, a traditional tourtière. On the right a potato/bacon tourtière.

Basically fat and meat.
It to is a pate really. Just a mild one. Esentially identical to rillettes.
