Quick Chicken or Beef Pot Pie
Book: Joy of Cooking by Irma S. Rombauer (1931)

crumb: cooked chicken in gravy under a crust

Joy of Cooking includes “Quick Chicken or Beef Pot Pie” (p. 252). Irma S. Rombauer and Marion Rombauer Becker wrote it (classic 1975 Rombauer–Becker text, Plume 1997 printing, ISBN 0452279151). The book bakes this pot pie in a prebaked pie shell under a pastry crust top. This book is the big American home cookbook. It covers baking, roasting, canning and everyday family meals across a century of editions.

Differences:

Popular internet chicken cobbler layers rotisserie chicken and frozen vegetables over melted butter. It pours Cheddar Bay biscuit batter on top. It then pours cream-of-chicken soup and stock over it, and the biscuit bakes up through the sauce. The ancestor is Joy's quick chicken pot pie. Joy bakes cooked chicken in gravy in a prebaked pie shell under a pastry crust top. Both are cooked chicken in a creamy gravy under a baked crust. The biscuit batter topping, canned soup and cheese change it. The online version tastes and eats differently from a pastry pot pie.

Match: Reasonably similar, but will taste different
