Some time ago, a co-worker brought a meat pie to lunch. The aroma was familiar—after one taste, I was amazed to discover it was the same pie my grandmother used to serve when I was a youngster! She shared the recipe, and I have been enjoying it ever since. —Rita Winterberger, Huson, Montana

Ingredients

  • 2 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 2 pounds ground beef
  • 2 pounds ground pork
  • 3 cups frozen mixed vegetables
  • 2 cups mashed potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon ground allspice
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • Pastry for two double-crust pies
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten

Directions

  1. In a Dutch oven, saute onions in oil until tender. Remove and set aside. In the same pan, cook beef and pork over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Remove from the heat. Add the onions, vegetables, potatoes and seasonings.
  2. On a floured surface, rolled the dough to fit two 9-in. pie plates with bottom crusts; trim crust even with edge of plate. Fill each with about 5 cups filling. Roll out remaining dough to fit tops of pies; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in crust and brush tops with egg. Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown.
