Brisket pot pie

[BigDave11]

Thanks all. Really simple recipe. Let's see if I can type it out...

• Two pie crusts.
• One pound of chopped brisket (beef rib meat works well too!). Flat meat works best. If you use point meat you might want to add a few breadcrumbs to soak up the fat a little.
• Three or four jalapenos or serranos, chopped. My wife likes for me to remove the seeds.
• One yellow onion, chopped
• Fresh garlic to your liking. I do four cloves chopped fine
• A little flour for the roux.
• Tallow or butter or your favorite oil. Make sure you have enough oil and flour to start a roux.
• Beef broth/stock
• Heavy cream
• Salt, pepper, thyme (add any other favorites)
• About 1 1/2 cups of your favorite cheese. Cheddar works. Gruyere works. Any substantial cheese works.

1. Preheat the oven to 375.
2. Load one pie crust into the pie pan.
3. Saute the chopped jalapenos and onions in the tallow over medium heat for a couple of minutes then add the garlic.
4. After a couple more minutes, add enough flour to make a roux and brown it just enough to kill the flour taste.
5. Add a cup of beef broth and a cup of heavy cream and stir well forming sort of a gravy.
6. Add the salt, pepper, and thyme to taste.
7. Cook it down until it thickens a little. You don't want it thin.
8. Add the brisket and stir it for a minute or so to get it warm.
9. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the cheese and stir it all together well.
10. Spoon the mix into the pie crust, add the top pie crust and pinch it down. Make sure that you vent the top pie crust.
11. Bake about 40-45 mins.
12. Cool for about 10-15 mins.

Thanks. I have not made it without the cheese.We like the cheddar/jalapeno flavor combination.
Deleting the cheese, you could thicken up the roux a little more and add some breadcrumbs to firm it up and I'm sure that it would still be good.
