Found in Australia. Sensitive viewers may want to look away.
I think the real tragedy here is that it’s being served with tongs.
So the distinction of Shepherds Pie is lamb, Cottage Pie is beef is pretty modern and didn’t exist when these recipes first appear within our history. Shepherd and Cottage appear interchangeably, with the recipes calling for beef, lamb, pork, chicken, or whatever meat you have on hand. They also don’t include a gravy, it’s pretty much just meat covered in mash potato.
My point is that any time some pedantic chud tries to tell you that you’re doing something wrong, you’re saying it wrong, you’re enjoying it wrong, turns out they themselves are invariably in the wrong. Call the pie whatever you want, it doesn’t matter what you call it, it’s still a yum.
Fine I’ll call my horse meat pie “lentil stew”. Then when the customers are angry I’ll say “I enjoy it being wrong”.
Someone watched the recent Max Miller video.
I couldn’t care what shepherds share or which pie is right. It all depends what meat I feel like: beef, lamb, pork, chicken.
Hog Pie is pork, Poultryman Pie is for chicken.

What about Cottaging Pie?
Sir, this is Wendy’s.
Get him, boys!
Okay but lots of things didn’t used to exist that now do. The fact that it wasn’t always this way doesn’t mean the new nomenclature is worse.
If anything, the old naming was confusing. Drawing a line between shepherds pie and cottage pie based on the ingredients is a useful distinction, modern or not.
Shepherd Pre 👀
That’s just a sloppy lowercase I. I do the same thing every time I sign my name.
Cottage pie
Messy.
Outrageous. My monocle nearly fell out.
