The thread on perfect pie crusts and my love of smoking has driven me to try and join the 2 in a smoked beef pot pie. The pie dough is chilling in the frig and the meat just went on the smoker.So, this being a real experiment, I'm starting with some rubbed chuck roast that is cubed to create more surface area. (stew meat)Meat that has been coated with my rubsBecause the meat is cubed, I'm putting a little broth underneath it to help keep it from drying out.Loaded for the smoker

Interesting! Please post results!

Your idea is in the finest traditions of the meat pies in the UK, whether Welsh, Irish, Yorkshire, or Scottish. You can even make hand held pies called Forfar Bridies from Scotland. They use the same pie crist. Forfar Bridies make great traveling meals.

Wonder how it would do in a Shepherds Pie.

I'm praying for enough filling to pull off both a pot pie and a small shepherds pie. I struggled all week with which one I wanted to make so both would be appropriate. ;-)

Don't want to jinx myself but things seem to be moving on smoothly. Meat pulled from smoke and now going to be braised with some veggies to create my gravy stock.

Alright Super Dave, I have to be the one to say it...WHERE IS THE RECIPE???

I have read your posts on short ribs and now on Smoked Pie and what seems to be missing is a comprehensive recipe that all of us can follow to recreate the wonderful dishes you make

The pictures are great but for those of us that need a "little more info" please include a recipe??!!

Thanks :)

Feel free to ask any specific questions you might have about the process. The reason I post such comprehensive picture tutorials is that I don't tend to follow recipes nor do I usually measure things. If pressed, I could come up with something but it would be purely seat of the pants list.

IMO the world would be a better place if people would smoke meat instead of cigs or pot. ;)

FYI, the shepherds pie went back in the smoker until the potatoes were lightly browned.
