I looked at a ton of recipes every bit good every bit they were all a footling different. shut to called for puff pastry, shut to for jam(?), shut to for shortcrust pastry, shut to for black beer, shut to for mushrooms,  shut to for no vegetables at all. The solitary matter that nearly could agree on was that the pie was popular inwards pubs every bit good every bit that the oysters were probable added (either smoked or fresh) to stretch the meat because they were therefore plentiful.

I finally decided to only come upwards upwards upwards with my ain recipe using my favorite stew every bit good every bit meat pie ingredients with the add-on of the smoked oysters. I don't hateful value I had ever had smoked oysters (I works them nigh tuna inwards the supermarket) before but they were quite good! Very savory. I added them at the cease of the filling cooking 4th dimension to construct certainly they didn't acquire tough similar regular oysters would convey been afterwards an hour add-on of cooking.

I loved the result. It had a calorie-free smoky flavor from the oysters, was rich every bit good every bit hearty from the caramelized onions, mushrooms, vegetables every bit good every bit meat every bit good every bit the pastry piece of job yesteryear made it seem festive every bit good every bit special.
