Polly’s Pies is proving that great pies don't need to be sweet with the launch of its new Burger Hand Pies.

Created specifically for National Hamburger Day, the new Burger Hand Pies put a [savory twist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pukka-the-big-one) on [Polly’s Pies'](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lunch-munch-combos) signature creation. The new pie features a delicious combination of cheesy beef filling, flaky pastry, and a sesame seed topping. In other words, it "conveniently packs all the flavor of a delicious hamburger into a portable pie."
