Here is my moms recipie

11/2 pound beef cut in small pieces
4 raw potatoes cut or chopped small
2 onions diced\7 carrots diced
1/4 cup bacon fat drippings optional but makes more moist
11/2 tsp salt
1 tsp. pepper
Combine meat and veggies in large bowl mix in seasonings and bacon drippings. Put in crust and bake 375 degree oven for 40 to 50 min.
Some people put in rutabaga and other veggies. I always just make it like above.Oh and some people use a cuisine Art to cut by I like to do mine by hand.


You can make individual ones in one pie crust at a time by putting stuffing on one side and then flip over other side and crimp together. Or I like to make mine in a cake pan like a pot pie which is also delicious if cooking for a group. My mom used to call it a pastie Pie.

I hope you try this and can let me know if you like it. I hope you do. Pickle
