Pie Crust

Filling

Method

Pie Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Pie Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Incorporate Butter

    Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, mix until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Add Ice Water

    Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. 4

    Chill the Dough

    Form the dough into a disc, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  1. 5

    Cook the Meat

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chopped beef and pork. Cook until browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks.

  2. 6

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced potato to the skillet. Cook until the onion is translucent and the vegetables are tender, around 5-7 minutes.

  3. 7

    Season and Simmer

    Stir in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, black pepper, and salt. Bring to a simmer and let cook for about 10 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly.

  4. 8

    Cool the Filling

    Remove from heat and let the filling cool slightly while you prepare the crust.

Assembling and Baking the Pie

  1. 9

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 10

    Roll Out the Dough

    On a floured surface, roll out half of the chilled dough to fit your pie dish. Place the rolled dough into the dish.

  3. 11

    Add the Filling

    Spoon the cooled filling into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

  4. 12

    Cover with Top Crust

    Roll out the other half of the dough and place it over the filling. Seal the edges by pressing them together and cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape.

  5. 13

    Egg Wash

    Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to give it a golden color.

  6. 14

    Bake the Pie

    Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.

  7. 15

    Cool and Serve

    Let the pie cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
