Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup beef tallow
- 1 large onion, diced
- 3 carrots, peeled and diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup dark ale
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 package pre-made pie dough or puff pastry
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the beef tallow over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
- Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, then slowly pour in the ale and beef broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
- Return the browned beef to the pot, along with the thyme and bay leaf. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- Transfer the beef mixture to a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish.
- Unroll the pie dough or puff pastry and place it over the top of the filling, pressing the edges to seal. Cut a few small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.
- Remove the pot pie from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
