Step by step

Step 1: Preparations

Mix all the ingredients for the dough into a smooth dough.

Let the dough rest in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours. You can also make it a day in advance.

Step 2: Grill

Generously grease the mold or skillet with butter or goose fat.

Roll out dough thinly to about 4 mm thickness. Line your pie pan or skillet with the dough and make an extra round for the lid.

Make sure the filling has cooled well and does not contain too much liquid or the cake will become very soggy. Fill the cake to the brim. Try not to touch the metal of your mold, this will burn.

Brush the edge of the base and lid with a beaten egg and use it to glue the base and lid together.
Pierce a hole in the center of your lid so the steam can get out.

Brush the top of the lid with a beaten egg yolk.

Bake the Meatpie at 150 to 170 degrees in about 40 to 45 minutes or until your dough is nicely cooked and golden brown.

For the pictures I made three versions, a chili, a beef stew and a delicious spicy pulled chicken.

The recipe for the pulled chicken is very simple: preferably start with a whole chicken, so you have a nice mix of the dark and white chicken meat. After cooking, let it cool and pull the chicken. In your skillet, turn on some onion, garlic green and red bell bell pepper and mix it with the chicken.

Season with some Grate Goods Spicy Chipotle Rub and Grate Goods California Style Hot Sauce and your stuffing is ready.

Step 3: Serve

As a main course or lunch with a fresh salad
