A Bridie is a kind of meat pie, generally stuffed with ground lamb, mutton, beef or on occasion, pork. They are wonderful damp weather food, and go well piping hot with HP sauce on them. Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

A bridie also sometimes is the name for a home knit womans sweater.

Now that right there...I have to admit it looks pretty good.

It also appears to strongly resemble a Cornish pastie.

That looks quite a bit like a steak-and-kidney pie, without the plate. Hmmmm. It might actually be good. There is a lot of peasant fare that people turn their noses up at which is actually very savory.

And with lamb or mutton? That makes it sound even better.
Next time I am in the UK, I will seek out a lamb bridie.

However “HP sauce”? Is this the fingernail in the pie?
