Looks like that one has been banged.

I wish they were more common here. Chicken pot pie is the best you’ll do, unless you want to make them yourself. I did see an Aussie meat pie truck at a food truck festival some years ago.

>>18295359
I've never had one before but every single one of these is making my mouth water

Life is suffering Americano brehs

>>18295343
my country has the best pies

>>18295343
looks nice

>>18295343
It's common street food here. We imported it from the Balkans in the 20th century, but this Turkish style of pie doesn't quite match up to the British one, I feel, cause there's too much oily dough and the filling is composed of fewer ingredients

>>18295343
Is that a meat pie? FOOKIN LUSH

>>18295343
New Yorker here. There's a shop in my neighborhood called Myers of Keswick that makes and sells a bunch of different British meat pies.

So far I've tried the pork pie, steak and ale, chicken and leek, Cornish pasty, and the sausage roll. Loved em all. They're priced at a premium but you'd expect that.

Been experimenting with what to put on them, brown sauce, Colman's, Branston, etc. Even tried Geo Watkins mushroom ketchup, that stuff is great.

>>18295343
>Asian
we do but they're more like meat pastys, the spice mix is more Asian, and the pastry is flakier. nobody uses hot water crust pastry in traditional foods.

>>18295359
the classic one

>>18295419

>>18295419
Like I said, not cheap. But the variety is pretty good, and the only other place you're getting these is at a sit-down British place nearby which is even pricier.

I should stop in soon

>>18295343
I'm pretty sure most every country has some version of a pastry filled with meat of some kind

Mukbang ASMR eating all of the asscream and slurping the booty like pickles

>>18295343
It's the one food I'm really jelly about

>>18295343
Every country has some form of meat pie

>>18295343
>>18295385
We have a rice pie in turkey. Generally also contains chicken meat. The rice is cooked with various spices and dried nuts. The outer shell is pie crust, the same as meat pie crust. It's rarely cooked at home because it takes time and effort.

You can just cook the rice like this and eat it without the "pie" as well, and it's amazingly delicious.

we don't have british meat pies because we don't need them. empanadas blow bongslop out of the water.

>>18295343
Where can I buy meat pies in US

>>18295579
Bakeries, frozen food sections, pubs. Although I guess if you live in a very rural area you probably just have to make it yourself

>>18295579
The frozen section of your nearest grocery store.

>>18295343
our savory pastries ten to be more oblong and less pie-shaped
the meat ones are pretty good, but I prefer the sauerkraut and mushroom ones

We have burritos and tacos instead

>>18295579
have you heard of cooking?

>>18295650

I got a pie with your name on it you british fops.
Our dogs don't take kindly to british invaders.

>>18295385
That looks flaky, mouth is watering

>>18295579
Empanadas bro

>>18295709
Looks good, I'd add some salsa.

>>18295815
I bet you put ketchup on your steak you filthy naughty pervert

>>18295709
who the fuck puts sultanas and olives in an empanada what the fuck

>>18295843
In some parts they call me a degenerate but that doesn't stop me from eatin' a good meat pie.

>>18295348

>>18295419
Been there plenty of times, the fish and chips next door ain’t bad either, we have a similar store in Montclair called the pie shop

>>18295343
An Australian food truck swung by my coffee roaster once. All they served was ready made meat pies for $5. Can’t find them on yelp or anything.

>>18295359

>>18295343
Nothing is stopping anyone from putting meat in dough.
There is by that logic no country on earth that doesn't have meat pies.
That said, Runzas are superior and make coasties seethe.

>>18295359
For me, it's the McChicken.

>>18295343
>no kidney pies anymore
>no one sells kidneys anymore so no making your own

>>18295650
SHeeeesh this tranny is steamin, yo frfr.

>>18296524
Looks good but I would have quarterd that olive so each half of the pie gets two quarters.

>>18296355
How fat are you?

>>18295419
>priced at a premium

they're 6.75. I've seen donuts in NYC go for over 5 dollars. If you were from NYC you wouldn't think the price is high.
Tourist, ew.

>>18296786
I am from NYC and that price is retard level, just because I'm from a place doesnt mean that I agree with the shit pricing.
t. out of nyc and gld for it

>>18296786
I meant compared to what you'd pay for one in the UK, genius. You think they cost the pound sterling equivalent of $6.75 over there?

>>18296786
Where were you buying donuts, times square?

>>18296786
you're a fucking idiot

>>18296861
Hey while a brit's on, explain to me the old currency system, was that based on pieces of eight and what coin would be cut up into eights? So if something cost 1 and 6 is that 1 piece of eight and 6 pence?

>>18295343
>be half british and half american
>grow up eating pies all the time in UK
>move to US while finishing school
>can't find a decent meat pie to save my life

Not a fan of fast food here either. Chick-fil-A is the only redeemable one I've discovered.

>>18296980
Where in the US? Also what do you define as fast food? Do chain diners count?

Wait do other countries seriously not have meat pies?

Spicy Jamaican Beef Patties >>> all other meat pies

>>18297001
Virginia. I guess I think more of the big brand, drive-through kind of places rather than diners.

>>18297032
IHOP and Denny's are practically the same thing, and you don't have many options after midnight, so that's OK. I wish you could have tried waffle house before the management, menu, and distributor changes; it was glorious.

Unironically, the best diners in the US are in northern New Jersey or New Mexico, so you're shit out of luck on that front.

Embrace BBQ. Virginia has a few different varieties floating around the cities, but inferior Carolina styles are most prevalent. Find Memphis style if you can, settle for Kansas City style.

DC is your best bet for finding British style meat pies, but pot pies and empanadas abound where you live, undoubtedly. The proper crust is an art, so you gotta be willing to try inferior versions, but you'll find a good spot.

>>18297022
beef patties was the best sunday prison lunch

>>18295343
Enjoyable until you get an unchewable bit.

I like meat pies. I hate the goyslop they put in them.
It's actually astounding that they find meat of such low quality.
Big Bens used to be ok, now their luxury range is dogshit even.
Ms. Macs is ok.
Oxford pies are dogshit.
All these hipster brands that offer 4 dollars a pie are dogshit.
Some bakeries are ok, but I would rather just have bacon and egg.

>>18297032
Virginia borders North Carolina; do you have Bojangles? That was my favourite chain in the states

>>18297357
Not them but there are like 3 or 4 Bojangles in Virginia Beach.
Was just there for work.

>>18297449
Lucky virgins
Bojangles should join Popeyes in Canada and put KFC out of their misery

>>18295343
Needs going on a barm that lad

>>18297494
Agreed, KFC is on its deathbed.
At least the midwest has Cane's and Popeye's
Took a Russian that was partner in a building project in VB to Bojangles and he wouldn't shut up about how good it was.
World class nig food.

>>18296696
this, where 2 get some kidneys
just gonna have to raise and butcher my own animals i guess

we do, it's delicious, especially with ketchup

>ex is american
>take her to a bakery one day
>she's confused as fuck at the different types of pies
>buys the chicken and veg pie that she could get in america anyways
dumb bitch

>>18298239
Did you kill her afterwards?

>>18296696
>>18297754
You mean you guys can't buy organ meat at the local supermarket or butcher?

Every chain store that sells pies is shit.
The only good pies are found in the vietnamese bakery type places

>>18295359
Looked for a reasonable picture but found none.
Chunky steak and red wine or guiness. Absolutely delicious. Chunks of steak falling apart as you tuck in. Yum.
Scallop pies and chicken &veg also very good.
Thought you were from Aus until I got to the 'tattie'. Yes, shepherds pie is pretty good.
Dont get the US obsession with pumpkin pie (never seen nor tried one); meat pies are amazing. Brekky, lunch or dinner.

>>18298433
Chicken and beef/veal livers are still found in every grocery store. Kidneys... I haven't seen in a decade. Stuff like tripe or chitterlings is more common in fact, though rare.

>>18298505
I also forgot to mention chicken gizzards and hearts are common even in grocery stores. So are beef tongue. Turkey organs are kind of seasonal. Most animal feet and necks can be found too but I wouldn't count that as offal. If you want more you need an specialty market usually found near a major city, or just that one found every 90 miles in the countryside or something.

>>18298433
>>18298505
>eating organs
Barbarians... only chinks and niggers eat organs. They're called "awful" meats for a reason. What are you, poor? Eat a steak like a real man.

>>18295343
Aren't meat pies just glorified burgers?

>>18298524
The tongue is just one big muscle. It tastes like the best roast beef you'll ever have; it is also paradoxically more tender, more cohesive, yet less tough.

Like a real man? Animals go for the organs for a reason. It's the most nutrious part. Weak men ignore them because of strong flavors.

>>18295709
That's just a Cornish pasty

>>18296696
>>no one sells kidneys anymore so no making your own
I've made 2 kidneys already, what the fuck are you talking about

>>18298531
Not that anon but you're literally letting the cow tongue your mouth, gut, and anus, that's pretty fucking gay desu.
>>18298569
You're literally eating piss anon. Kidneys are where piss is made, the tubules are still filled with piss when you cook them.

>>18298505
Kidneys are everywhere here. Steak and kidney pie is delicious.

>>18295359
what the fuck is the point in having 12 nearly identical pics of the outside of pies without exposing the filling? the point of having pics on your site at all is that they're supposed to be a visual aid. their marketing department needs to get the boot, whoever they are

>>18295385
We have this in Albania

>>18295343
I used to live near a bakery that did a steak and bacon pie with an egg on top of the filling, topped with a slice of tomato and cheese. It was so good.

>>18298421
no, she was great

>>18295359
Steak & stilton followed by steak & tata .

>>18297302
judging by you bunging on about goyslop it seems as if you'd like to think you have standards but mrs macs are the lowest meat percentage that they feel comfortable skirting above the legal minimum and apparently that's worth a lukewarm "okay"

>>18298704
wtf my brainrant wasnt supposed to be coherent, moron

>>18295385
>>18295571
FUCK THE TURKS

>>18295571
>You can just cook the rice like this and eat it without the "pie" as well, and it's amazingly delicious
of course it's delicious without being wrapped in dough, what a fucking terrible idea. rice-stuffed dough

>>18296896
Nah, pieces of eight were descended from the Arabian empire's currency system. The old British one descends from the Roman empire.
1 pound = 20 shillings
1 shilling = 12 pence
1 penny = 4 farthings

>>18299213
>960 farthings = 1 pound
imagine going to a world where 1/1000th of the average piece of currency was still relevant

>>18299231
They even had a quarter farthing in some places. The fancy hotel my nan had her honeymoon at in the 50s cost 2 pounds 15 shillings a night.

>>18295442
Get a scotch egg in yer lad

>>18298524
>Cheaper
>Healthier
>Tastier if you're not a retard
Where's the downside?

>>18296861
Honestly? It's only a little more expensive than normal, depending where you are and how fancy (how "rustic") the pies are.
>>18299231
It's the other way around. One pound was in no fucking way an "average" piece of currency. Farthings were so useful because...that's what normal people would use to buy a pie or something.
This isn't so much the case from the 1700s onwards, but before then people literally did not really know that inflation existed. That's part of why what we now consider to be tiny units of currency continued to exist in some form.

>>18298524
>They're called "awful" meats
Lmao what low class accent do you have

>>18295915
don't know about the raisins but olives are a cuban thing

>>18295915
Niggas from South cone who think by doing it they'll be whiter

I had one of those cold pork pies with the congealed fat at a farmer’s market in Scotland about 15 years ago and I still think about it sometimes. It was one of the best things I’ve ever eaten.

>>18298704
That's likely true. I don't think you understand how much worse the quality is in every single other brand here. Ms. Macs is the lowest quality standard possible in australia (they're still made in a western country). These other ones are 10x worse. It's genuinely unbelievable.
I haven't had one of their pies in four or so years, maybe they've taken an extra nosedive.

>>18297449
fuck virginia beach and its trashiness

I would like a recipe to make one or two small meat pies in a muffin dish.

I would like these to be kind of local example maybe 300 calories for two?

Would like to try this recipe tomorrow.

>>18301262
Beer and beef cheeks is calling to me, but I'd be back to sample that menu. I've wanted to visit Australia for years but it's ridiculously expensive. Easily 6k just for travel expenses for one.

>>18298531
I get all the nutrition I need from real muscle, not any of your gay tongue crap. I bet you eat beef testicles "for the rich flavor" like some sort of chink medicine-believing hipster faggot.

Cajuns from South Louisiana make meat pies, so the US has meat pies. The best ones are the crawfish pies.

>>18301080
I haven't had one since working in outback qld and they were the only pies we stocked at the cafeteria, the bakery in town I'd consider ok and it was miles better than budget lowest possible expenditure servo and freezer section shit
I've got at least half a dozen places, sometimes more in my small town of little more than 1000 people, that I can get a pie from and even the worst is better than mrs macs by miles
shit, every mediocre city chain bakery pie I've had is better

boomerangs makes these in the US and as far as microwavable things go, it's pretty good, especially the chicken and mushrom.

they're built to be a bit more handheld or at least slide out of their cooking container whereas you couldn't do that with like a marie callendars chicken pot pie.

>>18301712
We also have empanadas, shepard's pie, chicken pot pies, etc, etc.
I doubt there are many foods you can't get in 'Murrica.

>>18301712
That's a turnover.

>Australia
There's the problem. I wouldn't be surprised if your industries do what ours do, and ship out higher quality ingredients and leave you the goycrumbs.
Either that, or the absolute bottom of the barrel australian quality control is somehow still miles better than the dog meat they get away with producing for "domestic consumption" here.

>>18301927
are you that foreverially assmad kiwi that pops up every pie thread claiming your pies are better despite us sharing the exact same food standards and having the exact same shit quality poverty pies? it's a nice enough country you have, no need to carry such a big chip on your shoulder

>>18302083
No. I think they're pretty much all dogshit. They're also pricing us out with "luxury" pies that are still dogshit too.

>>18295571
This is awful.

>>18295597
No gtfo.

>>18302086
good pies are so ubiquitous in aus and nz at least, I assume the uk too but I've never been to that shithole, that you'd have to be a fuckwit to buy cheap shit from a non-bakery

>>18302150
>don't live in city
>no access to a bakery on a regular basis
Feels bad, but I also never see chinks or indians, which is nice.

>>18302160
Every regional town I've driven through has a bakery on the main street. They're more reliable than petrol stations.

Nothing better than a steak and pepper pie during smoko.
Makes me proud to be strayan honestly. Damn near everything else in this country is ridiculous or retarded, but pies from the cornerstore bakery make it worthwhile.

>>18301080
>brand pies
No cunts, local bakery or fuck off. If the meat inside the pie is not CHUNKS, the pie, the seller, and the fuckers eating it can play hopscotch in a minefield.

Beer and beef cheeks - that tomato based sauce sounds great. I am however always a fan of breakfast-filled items. Pies, burritos, etc.
