Damn CT,

I'm going to have to give that a try! Fall has finally arrived, and I am ready for rich hearty dishes like this.

The ironic thing is, I don't!!!

I love Caffreys or Murphys but Guinness never floated my boat.

On the other hand, my other half drinks it like it's going out of fashion!!

The pie also works well if you use a little more meat and leave out all the veg and just make it with Mushrooms.

The recipe also scales well.

The recipe sounds good, CT...

Brilliant!

I love meat pies! Mom's side of the family is English/Scot - so we ate a lot of them when I was a kid. Good way to use left overs - and her meat pies were better than the first meal IMO.

Replace the turnips and parsnips with potatoes, and I'm all over that! There is a place here that makes a pretty decent Guinness pie.

CT, I have to agree with your better half - I can drink Guinness down as quick as water.

Between Guinness, Boddingtons, and BBQ, I could easily be 500lbs if I didn't show restraint.
