BEEF

Best French Meat Pie (Tourtiere)

Tourtière is a dish that I had not tried until recently, but I have always loved meat pies and I make them at home often. This dish changed my whole view on the uniqueness of this meat pie recipe, and it is the way I make it now. The spices are incredible with the port and beef mixture – I figured my kids would prefer a plainer meat pie like they are accustomed but, surprisingly, they really enjoyed this version!

If you need to plan ahead, make the meat pies a few days prior to when you will need them, freeze them unbaked, and they are ready to pop in the oven. I have also made these in individual sized pie pans, and they are perfect!
