I would like to thank all of the individuals for remembering my grandfather and his meat pies. I was very young and was not allowed to have any recipe or care to have it at the time since I always thought it would be around. The story I have is that as the price of mutton increased the family went to beef. As has been stated they were a sausage type meat, with many spices, encased in a pastry shell. My Uncle Bill Taylor had a candy store next door and my Grandfather Arthur had the meat pie business. I have told my wife about these treats many times and can still remember eating them in the car as we drove back to our home. There are not many of my family memebrs left in the Paterson area, but I thought they were still making them some where. I hope you all get a chance to find them and enjoy them as we did
Hi James - I'm trying to search you down on the internet for a member of the family. There is a bit of a family emergency and one of our cousins has asked me to try and track you down. If you are still on this thread and see this post can you try and get in touch with me. I don't normally do this, but if you can, please email me at .
Thanks!
Vicky
