Slippery Potpie

(OIYC) A while ago, commenter Kris emailed about a true York County food. Kris writes, "Chicken potpie is best from a fire company and contains no crust. I can't tell you how many people expect an actual pie-looking item to appear because of the title."
And there we get into the fun. "Real" potpie - can I get an amen here - is what some people call slippery potpie [a.k.a. "bot boi"]. It's a soupy serving of meat and dough squares.

(If you buy frozen meals, their "potpies" are generally of the baked type.)
