In Australia and New Zealand a meat pie is a hand-held pie of diced or minced meat and gravy, sometimes with onion, mushroom or cheese, in a pastry crust, and the minced beef version has been described as Australia's national dish. It is usually eaten from the hand with tomato sauce, as a takeaway snack or at football matches. The Four'n Twenty pie was first made in 1947 by L. T. McClure in a small bakery in Bendigo, and Sargents could trace its pie making back to 1891.
