East London.

This is a meal that was meant to fill up working class dock workers in the very specific South East of London. It would be pie and mash as well as jellied eels, which were super common in the river. It's a super cheap meal, hence its blandness as it's very basic ingredients.

Come on Joel! Doing the 5 pie version when there’s a 10 pie challenge? That was barely a snack for you! But I love that you’re showcasing some traditional British cuisine 😁

As a Londoner (from the East End) you could find jellied eels pretty much anywhere years ago. I was never really a fan of them, however, you HAVE to try smoked eel if you ever get the chance. Cockles, Winkles, Mussels and Whelks were also popular. I always found whelks a bit too chewy but Cockles, Mussels and winkles are really nice.

Nice to see different food that I never even heard of before and to watch Mr Hansen eat it so quickly and describe the taste.

Ate "pot liquor" my whole life. It was the juice from cooked greens (turnip or collards). Mixed with cornbread.

Possibly the only challenge I've seen you do that I actually think I could manage joel.

Although it looked delicious I dont think I could have ate that small portion in that short of a time limit. You rock my man!!!

Soul food cooks refer to the juice from a dish as pot liquor. The juice that you sop up with the bread/cornbread.

mate that was rapid ! you just earned another sub. first video i have seen of yours , looking forward to binge

Growing up in Berlin Germany we had a dish called Aal Gruen. It is boild eel, in a sauce with herbs like dill and parsley. I did not care much for that dish. However we also had smoked eel, and that had a firmer texture and was quite tasty. We did have a hering in gel so. That was good as well. I moved to the USA a long time ago, so not sure how common those dishes are anymore.

You probably already googled this Joel, but the original liquor for the pie & mash was the stewed eel water, but most just use the parsley sauce these days! Nice to see you in the UK! Are you going to meet up with Adam, Beard meets Food?

It's easier if you follow the rules and turn the pie upside down into the liquor to soften the top. You don't use a fork just a spoon and a knife

Ikr.. Looked like burnt pastry, snot, and instant potatoes.

I would say traditionally ‘London’ rather than English. I’ve never had pie /mash / liquor before. Pie and mash but the pie is deeper with beef, chicken etc Mince (beef) and ground beef is the same thing.

not sure why, but I enjoy seeing you do these food challenges, you're a beast! the fact you eat all this stuff and still manage to look in shape is beyond me

i like when you try indiginous food and new stuff you havent had before... i like the mix between travel channel, food challenge and food reviews

Nothing like an over cooked pie with burnt pastry 😅

Driving on the left side of the road is bad enough. But shifting with your left hand takes it to another level.

I was brought up on this and it was always such a treat, still eating it😊. Plenty of chili vinegar and black pepper on it. NEVER heard of Tabasco and mustard in a Pie Shop ever-Need to go to Arments

As a Aussie who loves his Meat Pies, those that you ate Joel looked pretty average, I drove all around NZ South Island trying to buy a Beef Curry Pie, thats my favourite, NZ dont sell them, or didnt in 2015 when I was there, shout out to Al's Bakehouse Wauchope, best Curry Beef Pie ever.

I get this feeling that 10 seconds into every challenge, Joel is thinking to himself "I'm running out of time."

For most Hispanics, Latin, or South American friends we call that a big empanada. Looks delicious.

I would probably mixing that parsley sauce and potatoes in with the meat pie. I would have to drink a GIn and Tonic with that too. That looks like GIn and Tonic food.
