In a previous video I bought one, but discovered that the accountants had visited and reduced the meat content to a box ticking slurry. It appears they have addressed this issue.
These tinned pies have been a British tradition since I was a kid. It was a family treat to share one of these alongside a selection of vegetables.
The tins also often ended up in workshops filled with random screws, washers, and springs.
If you enjoy these videos you can help support the channel with a dollar for coffee, cookies and random gadgets for disassembly at:- www.bigclive.com/coffee.htm
This also keeps the channel independent of YouTube's algorithm quirks, allowing it to be a bit more dangerous and naughty.

Meat pie... Now with meat !! What a concept...
-
"Better meat" is marketing for "Not as bad as before"
-
I am mildly disappointed that we did not get a weird schematic, but perhaps next time. Enjoy the meal.
-
"now with more meat" sounds like a tag line off a Futurama product
-
It's amazing how mass boycotting of a product can result in such a marked improvement!
-
I'm just disappointed you cooked it an air fryer rather than the forks of death or a plasma arc.

I was once in a queue to enter the USA when the elderly, wheelchair-bound gentleman in front of me had his suitcase opened to reveal that it was crammed full with these pies. His excuse was that he was in the USA for two weeks' holiday and didn't like the food. It's hard to think of anything that would look more like a suitcase full of land mines.

For emergency supplies during Covid I stocked up on Fray Bentos pies on the basis that they are so unpleasant that one would only eat one as a last resort and never as a snack.

The last pie was an affront to Trading Standards. It was not a steak and kidney pie - it was a gravy pie into which only the shadow of steak and kidney had fallen. Kinda like homeopathic food where the gravy holds the memory of the steak and kidney while containing none.

meals like this are best had when you are 7 years old watching Star Trek on a rainy Saturday in front of a big tube television.

I am with you Clive, as an adult it is a serving for one

The tin that kills most tin openers š

Fray Bentos; Nobody Beats Our Meatā¢
-
The 1960s ads show a lot more meaty goodness in the pie.
-
We've all watched Clive eat his dinner againš

Hmm, a slight improvement. About time they started listening, their business was heading down the tubes.
-
āNow Iām going to eat most of this pieā Who are you trying to kid? You ate every single bite of it, didnāt you?!š
-
For those that donāt know. Fray Bentos is the name of an Uruguayan city where the British built a large Meat Processing Factory. I think the name is a tribute to that place actually
-
Always have a few of these in the cupboard as a back up meal ! š

This reminds me of a friend who did not read the instructions properly. Having cooked the pie, he rang another friend and asked "How do you remove the lid?"...
