Pasties
« on: April 21, 2016, 10:54:32 am »
So a local church has a pastie sale twice a year. Just in time for spring turkey camp, then again for deer camp. I'll be picking up a pile of them after work today. I'll be bringing a taste of Michigan with me to South Dakota. If you don't know what a pastie is, I'm sad for you. Just know I'll be eating good tonight!

There are pasties and there are pasties! I hope you are eating the correct ones.  ;) The others would probably get caught in your throat.  ;D

Lo!  I think it's safe to assume that we're not talking about the type of pasties with tassles Pat.   I must admit that I'm curious as to what the pasties we are talking about consist of.  Do tell Dave.  Josh

Pasties are a Yooper's version of an empanada ...  ;)

Basically meat and vegetables wrapped in a thin dough and then baked.  A meat pie for one.

Yup that's a fact, the tassels don't taste very good. 

Meat pie is correct. It's a Michigan thing. The story goes, it was a common meal way back in the day for all the copper miners in the upper peninsula. Also know as "yuppers".

Here in Michigan there's always a debate about diced ingredients versus chuncks of meat and veggies. Either way, it's tasty! And ask almost any up north Michigander, they'll tell you who makes the best pasty.

Makes for a darn good hunt camp food. A whole meal all wrapped up nicely to throw in a backpack.

I eat them at least once a month. Love them! Rutabaga is yummy. Good call, Dave.

Brown gravy or ketchup is my thing. Even just melted butter will do a guy right.

Now your talkin! A little melted butter, salt, pepper, and I throw a little hot sauce on there. That's all I need.

You know it is kind of funny how many parts of the world/country have similar delicacies..?
Empanadas, pasties, burritos, bierrocks, runzas and fried pies are all basically dough wrapped baked, or fried, portable meals.  :)
