I was lucky enough to grow up just a few miles from the farm in Shropshire, England where they filmed those series. It's a working farm museum and we used to go there as kids to watch the shire horses pulling the plough and the dairy maids churn the butter. Such a special place. I've taken my kids many times and they love it too. Great video - thank you x

[@sueshughart7006]

Very lucky!

[@julia.mattei]

That is amazing!!! Maybe one day I'll take my kids there, they'd love it!

[@stacyf6866]

Love those series - recently made a colonial Thanksgiving celebration meal using all recipes from the 1700's...the beauty of real food, real flavorings and culinary history. Christmas could be done the same way. I don't eat much flour and sugar - crustless, sugarless pumpkin "pie" with an array of spices and flavorings....surprisingly flavorful and satisfying with the help of properly grown real food, real flavorings and culinary history. What our predecessors knew that we don't...truly beautifully humbling.

[@amelia2656]

I have very fond memories of end of postwar rationing traditional hot water crust meat pie made with lard or beef dripping and your version definitely looks extremely tasty. I love the emphasis on really good quality, but economical cuts of very slow cooked beef. If you want to see a traditional English version, I recommend John Kirkwood’s KZbin channel.

[@amyharris7337]

This video reminds me so much of Julia Child's original show. She always taught about cuts of meat and didn't want the recipes to be fussy or complicated, and then showed how to serve them on a lovely table. Well done, Shaye. I can't wait to try this!

[@debraflecker151]

Awe, your little, giving you a bite, warmed my heart ❤️

[@angelacross2216]

A great filling for hot water crust pie that can be eaten cold in the summer is alternating layers of chicken and sausage meat. The fat in the sausage moistens the “dryness” of the chicken. The layers make each slice so attractive. We called it picnic pie.

[@taneriapollins9225]

I am loving all these videos keep up the good work

[@ritamaher9192]

You are so lucky to have your kids eating everything

[@lzmash3]

Making me cry Shaye! Food is so important to me as well, the feeling of people enjoying your food is hard to match! I MUST try a meat pie again asap!! Thank you!!

[@SuperMotherofChaos]

I love all of the videos you’ve been putting out over the last month to 6 weeks. I always love your videos, but these have been such a treat!😊

[@MrShine-zi1hg]

Just chiming in how much I adore the Victorian/Edwardian farm series ! All of them! I watch them annually ❤ there’s Victorian pharmacy too and tales from the green valley!

[@cathykirkmcrae7727]

Every Christmas Eve we use to make Tourtiere, a French Canadian (not sure where it originated) meat pie. It's made from hamburger and pork burger and we always made it with apples which was traditional in our family.

[@AE-Psalm91]

I love how you call clean healthy meat, “real food”….thank you for vid ❤

[@shauna395]

I enjoy SO many of your videos but I LOVED this one. All of the farm series shows with Peter, Alex and Ruth we have watched a dozen times so the ushering of the old into the here and now I greatly greatly appreciate. Thank you for reminding us that we call all do this!

[@Kelly-fx3cy]

That was the best series! I wish they'd do more. Can't wait to try this, thank you.

[@carebearb2007]

🥰 I love the way you cook! and your giggle........ made me smile and giggle too....I love watching your channel! As a mom who is always trying to work my garden, business and homeschool my youngest son I look forward to your videos. You are very inspiring, and I really appreciate all the knowledge you share with us. Keep up the good work and everything you do...xoxo Love always Carrie, Roseburg Oregon.

[@ceralamken6138]

You have an amazing way of expressing how I also feel about good food and the beauty of home! Thanks for sharing your love of the real on KZbin. God bless your beautiful family and your cozy home. Merry Christmas ❤

[@MoonBratStudio]

Yeah! I love those historical series! I feel like I can actually try to make this pie... and I think I will! 🎄 p.s. Your hair looks so cute in this episode!

[@t_nels]

I am 58 and have never had minced meat pie. I noticed a jar in the store a few days ago but thought I had better look into what it is. Thank you for this educational video on the topic. I love it. I will try it.

[@stephaniewilson8706]

Amazing food but your kid dancing in the background was just precious!

[@angeladyson7367]

I love Victorian/Edwardian Farm, Victorian Pharmacy and many others in the series. I have Edwardian Farm on DVD. 😊 You will most likely love the Absolute History channel. They also have programs where ordinary families and celebrities visit eras down through the ages. When watching programs like this there was one episode that spoke of how many calories folks like this would have needed to keep them alive and it was something like more than 4000 😮 so believable with what they had to do but shocking when compared to today. Love this Shaye. So educational and fun. 😊

[@CharmingtheBirds]

This reminds me of the Poldark series when Demelza made him a meat pie and he loved it! ❤

[@Holly_at_gypsyhollergardens]

Loved this ! Nutrition packed food that is delicious and hearty ! The shows you referred to were so much fun to watch !

[@genietillery878]

The pie looks wonderful. I'll have to try it this season.

[@mishkybishky]

I’m now inspired to make a meat pie for Christmas

[@gillbennett9784]

This looks delicious, next time we have family home I must try it.

[@teresalawson3732]

I’ve been watching those videos in the last week…Victorian, Edwardian and most recent (second time around), Wartime Farm and Wartime Farm Christmas. Not watched the Tudor yet. Love the show and tell of history.

[@KellyTrach]

Love all your videos so much!! Video topic idea if I may!! Maybe some hearty vegan side / main options you'd love on the table for holidays for guests, people with allergies, etc. Would love to know what you'd serve for those guests!

[@christileach4644]

Shaye - that pie is absolutely gorgeous! I know you all must’ve enjoyed it so much. Thank you for sharing! 🎄 xo

[@lindascott5298]

Looks delicious! What a lovely meal to serve the family! Thanks for sharing your knowledge of meats and cooking. Both are obviously a true passion of yours!

[@wilmawagler5058]

That looks amazing! I love making dough and pies.

[@rough-hewnhomestead5737]

Needed an idea for one of multiple Christmas dinners this year...Gonna do this! Thanks and Merry Christmas!

[@margaretramsingh4865]

Loved the video. Reminded me of the older videos that you used to make. Lovely pie. Happy Holidays!!!

I have some chuck roast sitting in the freezer, I think I have a new recipe to try!! 🧡

[@bellablack8308]

love that you use grams its way more precise

[@whitneyjohnson5572]

I laughed out loud...."we're not talking about roasted cauliflower".... 😂

[@lorettajackson379]

I loved those old farm shows.

[@SimpleGiftsFarmhouse]

I love you videos! So soothing and inspiring!

[@sarahp3676]

I've followed you for so very long and always love your videos... I know it's a lot of work to produce them, so I want to thank you for all the time and energy and dedication you're putting into giving us so many this season. You're filling my Christmas season with so much inspiration! xo

[@theclumsyprepper]

Two archeologists and a historian. Both Alex and Peter are archeologists, Ruth is a historian. The series are Tudor Farm, Victorian Farm, Edwardian Farm and Wartime Farm - for those that want to watch them. They are available free on KZbin. Regarding the pie - what could I use instead of creme fraiche? I can't have dairy so need some other idea.

[@ReyDayami]

Thank you!

[@theclumsyprepper]

@@ReyDayami You're welcome 😊. I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do.

[@DH-qz2so]

marshmallow fluff?? Lol!

[@angelacross2216]

A little wine or wine/cider vinegar would acidify the filling.

How did you touch the handles of the blue pot, without hot pads?? (From stove top to oven)

[@suzannecerrone7110]

Beautiful! Would you use Einkorn flour for the crust? Thank you!!

[@ilzitek2419]

❤ this is real food.

[@aloras405]

So, searing the meat doesn't seal in the moisture. That is a very common myth but it's not true. What it does is develop flavor through the Maillard reaction. The browning gives it flavor.

[@shirleygermain5707]

Looks good

[@joanneganon7157]

Hey Shaye , I just triede to reorder from Porter Road . They said your Holiday discount is not available to me right now?

KZbin analyzes your posts for relevance and popularity these days so just because you post something doesn't mean it's readily visible. Sometimes you have to sort for your messages and if it's not visible KZbin might have found your post not relevant and filters it out. Your message is still there...KZbin just doesn't care to make it super visible.

I can’t use egg wash I love eggs, but I don’t like the eggy taste that I get with ehh wash

[@angelacross2216]

This pie crust will still brown without egg wash. It just won’t be shiny.

[@kikiwylde]

I know this comment is quite old now but in case it's helpful, I brush with milk instead of egg sometimes and it works well for golden pastry 😊
