Chef Dan's Mom's Famous Meat Pie

Chef Dan of Spring Lake Heights has shared his Mom's famous meat pie recipe with Savoring the Shore. He remembers her serving it around St. Patrick's Day, so we did too. It is amazing! The complete recipe will appear in the upcoming Savoring the Shore cookbook to benefit Sandy relief.

The pie filling is prepared by browning beef brisket and adding carrots, peas, potatoes, onions and wonderful seasonings like fresh rosemary. The filling then simmers until tender.​
