I day dream of Aussie meat pies.

Any sources in America?

Then you need to try New Zealand meat pies. They are the equivalent of the outcome of the Rugby World Cup Final - a sizeable amount better than the opposition.

Found a recipe

http://www.foodnetwork.com/rec...meat-pie-recipe.html

1/2" thick crust and only 8 minutes baking time with a cooled filling?

Just sayin the one may want to test that one before depending on it for a meal.

No 'roo ? And don't confuse 'roo with roux ! And what do the Zs use instead of 'roo ?

No roo for me. Not going to claim that it is disgusting, but I don't like it at all. One of my top 5 least favorite meats. Taste like a iron pot.

My favorite is the Guiness Beef, followed closely by any that have wine in them. Burgandy beef is a top one.

Aussie meat pies are common all over Australia, the best ones found in small mom and pop places, and farmers markets.

I wouldn't necessarily ask a person over 50 what the best pie in town is. They will most likely be eating the ones they ate as a kid. Every older person I ever asked always pointed me to some mom and pop that had been there for 40 years that wasn't any good.

Australia has a great new tradition of great chefs and bakers and these kids are making amazing food. I know quite a few chefs that I consider some of the best chefs in the world.

They're almost a religion for some of us here, we're always searching for the 'holy grail' pie.
