  3. I live in the English countryside so I grew up on Shepherd's Pie and all its variants, and I just don't get the rest of the world's fascination with it. It's alright? I wouldn't turn my nose up at it. But honestly to make it in anyway exciting you have to deviate from the recipe so far as to disqualify it from being even remotely related to a Shepherd's Pie.

    But, y'know: that's just, like, my opinion, man. ????????????

  6. I like Shepards pie, but my spouse does not because of the hamburger. Can you use cut up cooked pot roast in in its place?

  10. Dude, try just using brown gravy, burger, and green beans under the mashers, and top with some cheddar. Classic.

  15. andy, did you ever go to culinary school or anything like that? not sure if you have talked about this elsewhere but would love to hear more about your background

  17. Happy to see you using lamb not beef! Too many forget the difference between a shepherds pie and a cottage pie!

  22. Yummm, my aunt makes this for family gatherings! Day 113 of asking for tteokbokki

  24. On the other side of the world, Gordon Ramsay mumbles in his sleep, "you don't put peas in shepherd's pie, you doughnut!"
