A hand-sized pie of slow-cooked beef in thick gravy, sealed in shortcrust and puff pastry. The canonical Australian footy-and-meat-pie pairing.
The Australian meat pie traces to the British colonial era but became the country's identity dish by the 1940s. Harry's Cafe de Wheels (Cowper Wharf, 1938) popularised the Tiger pie (with mash, peas and gravy) for late-night Sydney. Sargents and Four'N Twenty industrialised it for the post-war footy crowd; modern Sydney bakeries (Bourke Street, Lode Pies) reclaim the pie as an artisan product.
