What animals do shepherds watch over? Sheep, not cows. So, it follows that shepherd's pie is made with lamb or sheep, not beef.

Although lamb or mutton would be the traditional meat used in such a pie, very few Americans eat lamb on a regular basis. Ground beef is a common substitution. Technically, this version would be considered cottage pie instead.
