game pie

Hunter's meat pastry

A game pie is a savory pie filled with the meat of wild animals—typically venison, rabbit, pheasant, or other game birds.

The filling is often enriched with bacon or pork fat and seasoned with herbs.

Game pies are traditional British fare, associated with autumn hunting season and holiday tables: The Boxing Day buffet featured a cold game pie.
