Savoury Meat Pies in Ocean Grove, NJ
family meals
Image by flickr4jazz
Jersey Shore Fightin’ Texas Aggie Ring was talking with some folks last night at his local brewery who were from the nearby seaside village of Ocean Grove, New Jersey. They told Aggie Ring that there was a new restaurant/deli in Ocean Grove that makes and serves traditional English meat pies.

“Why had I not heard of this before now?” Aggie Ring said to me on the way home. “I’m out of the loop it seems. I suppose that’s to be expected when your an “Aggie Ring of One” and a “lone wolf” on the Jersey shore.”

“We need to get better intel.” said Aggie Ring. “That meat pie shop has been open for months. I need to know about these things.”

When Aggie Ring arrived home, he got on the internets and did special Aggie Ring research. The place is called Bürbelmaiers (standard spelling). They are a very traditional English/British Savory Meat Pie Shoppe. Looking at the menu brought tears of sweet joy to Aggie Ring’s eye. They had: British Pork Pie, Sausage, Peppers and Onion Pie, Beef & Mushroom Pie, Smoked Chicken & Leek Pie, Curried Lamb Pie, Bacon Cheddar Burger Pie… The list went on and on. “Look” said Aggie Ring. “They even have Reuben, Cubano, Ham & Cheese, Jamaican Beef, and Cornish Pastie Pies.”

Aggie Ring also noted that they had Sausage Rolls, Chicken Tinga Quesadilla, Bacon Toaster Tarts and Timpano! Some of their sides included onion gravy, mashed potatoes, and mushy peas (an Aggie Ring favorite).

The first thing Aggie Ring told me when he woke up at 11:30 this morning was, “I want an English Meat Pie for lunch!” After Aggie Ring had his shower, he drove the 10 minutes to Ocean Grove.

When Aggie Ring arrived in Ocean Grove, he quickly found the meat pie shoppe which was located on the first level of an historic home on the village’s main street. The pie shop with counter service was on the left side of the building. There were places to eat on the porch or on the sidewalk in front of the shoppe. There was also a “dining room” accessible through an outside door that had a huge table for family-style dining.

“Family-style dining!” shouted Aggie Ring, “We haven’t eaten family-style since…”

“Enough with the small talk.” I said, interrupting Aggie Ring. “Are we here to eat or what?”

Aggie Ring went to the counter and ordered a curried lamb pie and a sausage roll. After they took them out of the oven Aggie Ring carried his tray outside and into the dining room where he could eat “family-style.”

The pie and sausage roll were served on a tray with a wooden knife and fork which Aggie Ring thought was kind of cool. The lamb curry was very savory and was immensely enjoyed by the Aggie Ring. The sausage roll was nice and crispy and also delicious.

Aggie Ring ripped through his meal. The speed at which he devoured his lunch was pretty damn impressive, even for a hungry Aggie Ring. It reminded Aggie Ring of all of that TDY to Northern England that the Army sent him on all of the time.

In order for you gentle readers to comprehend how quickly Aggie Ring ate the savoury pie, I’ll let him describe a plausible scenario to give you a mental picture of how quickly a delicious food product can be finished.

– – – – – –

“I’ve got a little story to tell you Ags…” said the Jersey Shore Aggie Ring.

“Imagine, if you would, a bus full of Waggies traveling down the highway in Central Texas. Now, these Waggies haven’t had dessert in four hours so they’re angry and ravenous… Well, more than they normally would be, given that it has been four hours since they had any dessert. Everyone knows how angry a Waggie gets when she hasn’t had any dessert.”

Aggie Ring continued on with his story…

“Well, the bus full of Waggies is heading down the highway towards the Texas A&M Campus. All of a sudden the Waggie driving the bus sees that a truck carrying a full load of plastic spoons has collided with a big Blue Bell Ice Cream truck on its way from the factory to deliver fresh Blue Bell Ice Cream to grocery stores and BBQ restaurants all over Central Texas.”

“The Waggies see the plastic spoons all over the highway and hundreds of half-gallon containers of Blue Bell Ice Cream spilled next to the delivery truck. There’s French Vanilla, Cookies and Cream, Cookie Dough, Rocky Road, Strawberry, Homemade Vanilla, Chocolate Chip, and dozens of other varieties just lying there by the overturned truck.”

Aggie Ring then got towards the end of the story…

“Well, out of an abundance of caution and selfless service for humanity, the Waggies all pile out of the bus, grab some of the plastic spoons and start devouring the Blue Bell so melted ice cream won’t flow all over the highway and cause even more traffic accidents.”

“It would be a thing of beauty,” said Aggie Ring. “Waggies on both sides of the highway with two or three containers of Blue Bell in each of their laps and a spoon in each hand as they frantically spoon all of that free delicious Blue Bell Ice Cream into their mouths. We’ve all know how quickly a Waggie can take out a half-gallon of Blue Bell—we’ve all seen it. It would hardly take a couple of dozen of the Wags any time at all to finish off the entire shipment.”

“There you have it.” says Aggie Ring. “The Waggies quickly save the day. Disaster adverted. The Blue Bell would all be gone and traffic would be safe from a dangerous, melted sticky mess along the highway. The Wags pile back onto the bus and head back to the A&M Campus wondering what will be at the dessert bar at Duncan Dining Hall that evening.

“And that Ags, is how quickly an Aggie Ring can put down a lamb curry pie!”

What I miss about Sudan,” Esmat reflects, “is that everyone is considered family, all the time.”

In his homeland, neighbours shared meals, laughter, and prayers.

Here, the foreign streets are a blur of faces, each lost in their own struggle.

The mosque, once a sanctuary, now feels distant for Esmat.
