steak pie - steak only or steak and sausage?

[amazeandastonish]

YABU- steak and sausage
YANBU - steak only

(can't do a third option for steak and kidney

Central Scotland - its got to have sausage in it.

Omg, I love beef olives too, might get some this week.
Great comfort food with mash and veg and hunners of gravy

I keep meaning to try them again as it may have been my mums cooking that made them disgusting lol.

I am Scottish and steak pie is a NYD must here. But I have never ever heard of having it with sausage. Gie's me the dre boke just the pure thought o it.

Dundee area here btw. We ken pehs 😂

Have rarely seen it advertised as a steak and sausage pie and it really should be so we can avoid it

West Coast Scot here

Heathens.

Butcher usually asks if you want
Steak Pie or Steak Pie with links.

Steak and mushroom
Steak and kidney
Steak and ale
Steak and red wine
Steak and vegetable . . .

. . . all fine by me.

Steak and SAUSAGE????
You have to be kidding.

Asda advertise them

My morrisons doesn't have them. All the steak pie are just steak.

Steak and sausage every time, slow cooked, puff pastry lid cooked with the pie so the bottom is all gravy soaked and the top is all flakey. I made one a week or two ago and it was bloody lovely.

English with Scottish parents…. Sausage all the way!!!

@IknowwhatIneed
Exactly that!

@amazeandastonish

I'm the type of Scot who believes steak pie should be steak only and I get the rage when I order it in a restaurant and its got links in it

My MIL always puts sausage in her home made pie

And I've never heard of the pastry being anywhere but on top?

We were having our boxing day dinner plan discussion today. Always steak pie but how good it is depends on which set of parents we are visiting. This year its my mum - yay!

Growing up (and still now 🤣) steak and sausage pie was a NYD meal… didn’t mind the hangover so much with that to look forward to for dinner! 🤤

Steak pie definitely NYD meal, not boxing day.
I mean, you can have it then, but the tradition is NYD.

Noooooo
No sausages - that was a trick to pad out a pie when people couldn’t afford to fill it with steak. I would boak if I thought I was getting steak and bit into sausage

Also Scottish never had one with sausage in it,

It’s the law in Scotland to have a steak pie on NYD. If you don’t you get 10 years hard Labour.

I’m Scottish and have never heard of sausage in a steak pie!!!

This!

I'm Scottish and never had sausage in a steak pie

I have a Scottish (Glaswegian) DH and lived in Scotland for several years. I have never heard of Steak and Sausage! What am I missing?

I love sausage in mine but eldest ds doesn't like it, and the other 2 aren't fussed on it, so I have to do without. It's eldest favourite meal so I don't like to disappoint him 🤣

I'd never heard of sausage in a steak pie either until I moved from the East to South Lanarkshire. Our local butcher has both steak and steak and sausage. We prefer all steak in this house.

Also, the salt, sauce, vinegar thing is very regional. You can tell where someone is from by what they ask for on their chips. I've noticed people from different parts of the country call melted cheese on toast different things. My husband is from the central belt and says roasted cheese but it was always toasted cheese in my house!

I'm from North Lanarkshire and say an absolute NO to sausage in steak pie. However, my friend swears by it. My mum makes 2 for NYD - one with, and one without, kidney. Sis loves it. Me? Not so much.

@Sosomego yes! I call it roasted cheese and my dh calls it cheese on toast!
