FRAY BENTOS PIE: Trying Meat Pies Cooked in a Tin. Unexpected Result!

[@janicetaylor2333]

Me and my dog, Henry, came back from a winter walk cold, damp and starving. I put two Fray Bentos s/kidney in oven for our tea. Half an hour later, paradise on a plate. Henry nearly ate his dish too. Not fine dining but a helluva comfort food when you're knackered.

So let’s get this straight - you fed your dog this without once checking the ingredients which show that it has onion powder in it which can be fatal to dogs? Knob.

[@BillCameronWC]

I remember having these occasionally when I was much younger (well over 50 years ago) and at that time I recall them being quite tasty & meaty. A few years ago I noticed them in the supermarket & they seemed amazingly cheap, I thought of my youthful good memories, and wondered if they could possibly taste any good for such a low price. It was tasty for sure, but mainly gravy with very little meat - being realistic that’s about all one can expect at such a price now. My trip down that particular memory lane is highly likely to remain a one time thing & I doubt I’d do a repeat, but I suppose if you’re on a very tight budget it might fit the bill.

[@ladygardener100]

Adding in the cost of oven cooking it's better to buy a Ginster ready cooked as you leave the supermarket, and just eat straight away

I found this by chance .... thankyou for the video ... Fray Bentos are a great company with a great reputation - and their products were loved and i loved reading comments and watching the video it made me wish we all could share and taste ... online ...

Last time I had a Fray Bentos meat pie was 30 years ago (my eating habits have changed). But I still remember them with with considerable affection. Perhaps because I had the same misconception when I opened the tin. They are delicious. There is no two ways about it. Meat pies may not be exactly healthy but Oh My God!

I had several of these over the years.Surprisingly good. Last month I found one in a supermarket whilst in a self catering cottage so tried it for old times sake. It was just as I remembered them. Delicious. But do take the whole pie out of the tin, Use a fish slice or very broad bladed knife. So much nicer on a plate with some vegs.

[@PeterPrestonUK]

I'm stunned to see anybody praise the meat content in these pies. I had one last year - I was craving that nostalgia kick of my childhood and skint unemployed days - and I was absolutely disgusted by how few solid pieces there were: 2 tiny pieces of kidney and only 4 or 5 small pieces of chewy 'steak'. I swear they must include gravy as 'meat content'. Forget the photo on the tin: no product realistically represents the contents on the packaging, but the amount of meat in the photo is about the total I got inside the whole pie. Fortunately for me, I love the undercooked pastry, so it was saved from being a written complaint by that alone. Utterly deceptive & overpriced. For the same money you could buy the raw ingredients and make several better pies.

[@richardmillican7733]

One of the best "prepper foods" you can buy! Fray Bentos is actually a sea port in South America, where the majority of corned beef comes from. "Fray Bentos" means 'Friar Benedict' in English. Don't worry, you're unfamiliarity to these pies is strictly down to your age, I was bought up in the 1970s where these were a dinner time staple!! I've eaten one that's Been 3 years out of date and it was fine. I'll usually throw a baked potato in with one as the cook time is the same!

Who'd have thought a video on Fray Bentos tinned pies would be on KZbin. Ha! These tinned pies have been around forever, since I was a kid at least in the 60s, I absolutely love them, they're gorgeous. I've only ever had the steak and kidney one's though. I used to have one now and then as a kid. I still love them but I find they make work cooking them, they make a mess of the oven too much for me to bother with them now. I've also never eaten one from the tin, have always had them on a plate before. Getting them out of the tin when cooked and hot, is awkward for me also, so I don't bother with them, unfortunately. I was told of a guy my partner knew years ago, who tried to cook one of these without removing the lid, ooops! Bang!

[@mazzaprowse8803]

I used to remove the pastry and cook it separately so that all the pastry had a chance to crisp otherwise sometimes the underneath was a bit too soggy. The filling I warmed in a saucepan and served both with instant mash and beans! Shame there isn't so much meat now but it's still tasty and excellent in the emergency store.

[@MOGGS1942]

I love pies, and have my own little pie making machine. Consequently, no complaints about the filling. With regards Fray Bentos pies, I remember them well. Haven't seen them around for a very long time. I was always wary biting into a meat pie, as I really do not like gristle, etc., but they were very tasty. Tinned pies are what they are. Convenient, but not really to be eaten on a regular basis.

[@nickcoppard5335]

Never have gristle because the cow was 2 miles away

[@bobn1944]

Glad you like them. I used to buy them in England, now I have lived in Thailand for 12 years & I recently came across a shop here that sells them which I am really pleased about. Steak & Kidney is my favourite

[@everydayimeating3407]

Thats a good bit of luck! Steak and Kidney is a good choice!

[@mutleyeng]

the clever thing about these is how easy and consistent it is to get the pasty cooked right - you really have to go out of your way to under or over cook the pastry

[@diggerrob6356]

I’ve been eating the Steak & KIdney pie for years and they are tasty! Firstly don’t assume your can opener will get into one as some fail. Over the years the contents have come down to mostly gravy and a lot of pastry, not much filling. It’s handy having one in the cupboard but hardly worth the trouble unless you are happy with gravy & pastry.

[@ignoredickheads]

That's the best bit. Never liked kidney and the steak was questionable but the gravy and pastry were brilliant. Maybe Fray Bentos should just do a gravy one!

Cooked as recommended the pastry is soggy under the crisp surface but this can be solved by leaving them in the oven on a low setting (so as not to burn the crust) for another 20 minutes.

[@interstellaroverdrive3658]

Man I wish we had more British style meat pies in America. I love meat pies so much! Whenever I am in the UK, meat pies are pretty much all I eat. The closest I can get here in the States is Marie Callender's frozen beef pot pie which isn't quite the same. Chicken pot pie is a thing here, but is rather regional to the South and also not the same. People say British food is bad, but I say that is a stereotype. I love British food.

[@skylined5534]

Not bad are they really?! I bought the beef and onion one today and its currently cooking away. On a BigClive video someone suggested when getting close to cooked take the crust off and let that finish separately on an oven proof dish. Apparently the pastry puffs up even more and the layers separate out more and get even crunchier. No idea if it works but I'm definitely trying that today 😁

Fray Bentos pies were one of my staples for years. The best is undoubtedly Steak And Ale and in recent years they launched a chicken curry-type that's pretty damned good. They could be acquired cheaply for a long time, but eventually the elastic on the supermarket price point snapped and they got suddenly pricier.

Welcome, thanks for watching!

[@fernlow4235]

I never had one, but I do have a tin in the cupboard, given by a friend, I must try it soon.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Let me know what you think when you try it?

[@fernlow4235]

@@everydayimeating3407 I have to delay it until our hot weather has changed. I am only eating cold food for now, maybe until next 2 weeks.

Love fray bentos from my childhood I’m 60. A luxury item when you were a kid.

[@paulashe61]

£1 in pound shop! Win win!

These were luxury items in 70’s

I’m off to Poundland for some tomorrow.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Nice! Hope you enjoy

[@sandradent65]

I used to buy these for my first husband 30 years ago, I used to like the pastry. They are not the same now. A lot less meat these days.

Great video, the cheese and onion pie is a recent addition to the fray bentos range . Regards mark

Thanks for watching!

[@robsmith6281]

Oh mate yes one of these with mashed potatoes and beans.

[@everydayimeating3407]

Sounds like a great meal!

[@TheTmny876able]

you have to clean the edges though use a paper towel after you cut the lid, there is paint etc sometimes get onto the pies, but lovely pies !

[@everydayimeating3407]

Thanks for the tip!

[@Trevorbailey-i7s]

Love them when i can get into the.

[@suerogerts4330]

Fray Benton has made versions of these pies for a very long time I'm in my 60s and can remember having them from about 8years of age pretty good if your on a low income yum xx

[@everydayimeating3407]

Exactly! Good, tasty and cheap if you're on a budget.

[@bertsmith7013]

I've never had a fray Benton pie, I've only ever had the fray bentos.

@@bertsmith7013 really Ben your going to pick holes in the fact that I made a spelling mistake due to old age and failing eye sight you need to get a life if that's all you've got to do with your spare time

The steak and kidney pie is my all time favorite.👍💯💥

[@DannyC440]

Love these pies, but yeah I was waiting for you to try the cheese and onion one because I don't like that one much either but the rest I've had are really nice, although I think there's a vegetable one which I haven't tried

[@everydayimeating3407]

Yeah the cheese and onion one wasn't for me but I think there are other ones I might try soon

[@DannyC440]

@@everydayimeating3407 I need to try the all day breakfast one, but I've not seen it in the shops yet

[@geerkotocave4554]

Keep tins cleaned up to enhance your experience with pies instead of buying the same ones buy: - ready made rolled pastry -canned stewed steak in gravy -jar of Rich and Creamy Mushroom sauce +packet of cooked chicken strips or chargrilled one Use slice of pastry on bottom of can , fill it up and cover with another slice of pastry on top , bake it in your oven .You will be surprised how tasty it will be compared to bentos;

Where do you buy them from in Australia?
