Pasties

Ingredients

  • Steak
  • Carrots
  • Potatoes
  • Onion
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Pepper
  • Pillsbury pie crust
  • Egg
  • Water

Directions

Pre-heat the oven to 400 degrees. Remove the pie crusts to they can start to get room temperature. Cut the steak in short 1/4″ strips and mix with salt and pepper and any other seasoning you would like. As the steak sits, cut the carrots, potatoes and onion into 1/4″ cubes.

Once everything is cut up, roll out one pie crust and cut it in half. Take some water and brush around the edges of the pie crust. Measure out 2.6 ounces of steak, .5 ounces of carrots, 1.5 ounces of potatoes and .3 ounces of onions. Mix well and place onto one half of the pie crust. Fold the pie crust over to make a sort of triangle. Crimp the edges using a fork. Cut a slit in the top of the pastie to allow steam to release.

Continue the above until you have run our of ingredients. Once they are all ready, mix the egg and brush it on top of the pasties.

Place in the oven for 15-20 minutes until the crust browns.

Cast Iron Deep Dish Pizza

Ingredients

  • pizza crust – See the recipe here
  • 8-10 Slices of mozzarella cheese
  • 1 lb. ground beef
  • 1 lb. sausage
  • Pizza sauce
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Butter

Directions

Make the pizza dough. While it’s rising, start browning and seasoning the ground beef to your liking, brown the sausage and preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Coat the entire inside of the cast iron skillet with butter. Place the pizza dough in the pan, making sure to go up the sides of the skillet with the dough. Using a fork, poke holes in the dough to help it not rise when you pre-cook it.

Cook the dough in a 400 degree oven for 5-8 minutes.

Take the dough out of the oven and place the mozzarella cheese slices in the pan completely covering the bottom of the pan. This helps to keep the crust crunchy. Next, spread the hamburger evenly over the cheese. Add some shredded mozzarella cheese next and top it with some pizza sauce. The sausage is spread out next with more mozzarella cheese on top of it. You can add more sauce if you like it saucy. Don’t worry if your ingredients are slightly over the top of the pan, it will reduce in height as it cooks.

Melt some butter and spread it anywhere you can see the dough. Place in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the dough starts to get golden brown. You can turn on the broiler at this point if you want the cheese done more.

This is the hardest part of the recipe. After pulling the pizza from the oven, let it sit for 5 minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
