Mince, definitely mince. It's not a proper pie if it's got meat in it. I don't even know what's in mincemeat, nor do I wish to. Science Fiction films of the Fifties and Sixties have taught me a lot, most importantly, that there are some things man was not meant to know.
Shepard's Pie is clearly the result of some freaky British word usage. No flaky pastry crust there, it's not pie.
And before somebody points it out, potpie is a compound word, not having any fruity pie-like qualities, rather like monkeyfucking doesn't actually involve either monkeys or fucking.
