Family dispute settling....Shepherds pie, is it a pie? on 17:02 - Apr 20 by DJR
When I was young, I wasn't aware of this distinction, or even the expression cottage pie.
What my mother cooked as shepherd's pie contained chunks of cooked beef left over from Sunday lunch with gravy added.

Exactly the same for me. It was always shepherds pie, whatever went in it.
My mum used to make it like that, though she used to mince the left over beef or lamb up. Plenty of bisto. The alternative was using tinned mince. I dread to think what went into tanned meat in those days. It always looked like it’d been passed through the dog.

Let me guess. Shepherd’s Pie is a social construct of the governing elite designed to reinforce the subservient nature of the working class?
It's all part of the spectacle Swanners. Daily mixed messages to confuse us all, regardless of class, thus distracting us from the real issues of our times. Also, how very dare you call the working class subservient when it is the middle classes that hold the keys to the prison that confines them!!
"They break our legs and tell us to be grateful when they offer us crutches."

Many forget that a Shepherd's Pie should contain lamb meat, not beef....
This.
26yrs married and my missus still gets it wrong. Boils my p1ss.

You must have been wealthy indeed, if there was enough beef for some to be left over.
This is back in the 60s and early 70s, but there was only one of me, and in those days it was chicken that was the luxury, confined (from what I can recall) to Christmas day.
I might add that I never particularly enjoyed the shepherd's pie my mother cooked because beef the following day is not as tasty as chicken the following day.
