Tips & Warnings

• The meat will make a nice juice, if you prefer your pie drier, use a less-fat ground beef. If you use less-fat ground beef (or turkey), and your pie could be dry, add a few tablespoons of water onto the top of the meat. The potatoes soak up excess for cooking, and the pie will be a little moister.
• You can make individual pies too. Just roll and cut pie crusts into squares and create triangle “pockets” to layer your ingredients. These are great brushed with olive oil or use butter-layer biscuits rolled out thin.
• Try putting slow-cooked stew meat in the pies. This makes the pie have a whole new flavor.
