Guess who's sleeping on the sofa?

I made pot roast last week and I needed to find a way to use the leftovers. In the same week my husband had asked me what meat pies were. We know what pot pies are, but since the question arose out of watching Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and in specific, Lovett’s rather uncompelling interpretation of the British favorite, I thought I should investigate further.

                                                                                     

I really didn’t know what a real British meat pie was, and I’m still not sure I completely know, but it lead me in a fun direction, at least until my husband called it a Hot Pocket. He very nearly didn’t get to eat dinner. No matter what your loved ones decide to call it, it’s sumptuous.
