Ode to a meat pie

the meal of one course
not for a horse
on goes the sauce
with legitimate force

mince and cheese
oh yes please
butter chicken
that's what I'm pickin'

steak and veg
I wish to pledge
is comfort food
when in the mood

About this poem:

Studying meat pies, now in America apparently you can get only pot pies, not recommended though I see, but in NY, Michigan, Louisiana and wait for it McRadloff Wisconsin! you can get real meat pies, true?
Florida you get some Latin American equivalents, SM?
Do they put Guinness in the pies in Ireland Mick??

Ocean, sounds tasty. Here in Tampa as in Miami what we do is empanadas: meat or fruit kind of. They are not tacos. Hey, send me one of your recipes and I will make one at home; maybe I can introduce them to my restaurant. Hope I do not need a certificate of ownership??SM

Hi Ocean,
In Ireland they don't put Guinness in pies,
They actually add a small amount of pie to the Guinness....

Thanks for the share.
Regards Mick.
