Savory Beef Pot Pie is pure comfort food at its finest, just like grandma use to make.
Fall means it is time to add some good old fashioned comfort food to your menu. Hearty crock pot meals, soups, and this delicious beef pot pie.
Grandmothers have been making pot pies for generations. And nothing represents comfort food any better than a homemade beef pot pie. Personally, I don't remember my grandma ever making a pot pie. And the only kind I remember ever eating as a child was a frozen pot pie.
A frozen pot pie has its place, but a homemade pot pie is divine. A nice flaky crust covering a pile of savory, tender beef and veggies! You can make this beef pot pie recipe a little quicker by using a pre made pie crust. Or you can use my perfect pie crust recipe which really is easy and delicious! The filling for the pot pie is a combination of steak, carrots, chicken broth and seasoning. The meat and veggies are browned and then baked until nice and tender.
After baking, the mixture will thicken up and then you place it in a pie dish and cover it with your pie crust. An egg wash is brushed over the top and then it is sprinkled with salt, pepper and some fresh thyme. You can get fancy like I did and use a cookie cutter to cut out a shape from the leftover pie crust and place it on top.
Bake until the crust is golden brown and dinner is ready! Then grab a spoon and it's ready to serve. While this was baking in my oven I had a delivery and the delivery man commented on how good the house smelled and commented, "You know how to cook!"
The combination of tender and savory meat, veggies and flaky pastry crust is divine and will satisfy every craving for comfort food you might have!
