Follow The Directions
01
Step
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
02
Step
In a large Dutch oven, cook and stir the cubed beef, pork, and chicken over medium-low heat until the meat begins to brown. (Approximately 15-20 minutes)
03
Step
Mix in the chopped onions and celery; season generously with salt and pepper. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and become fragrant. (Approximately 5-10 minutes)
04
Step
Arrange 2 pie crusts in a single layer in the bottom of a large roasting pan, ensuring they cover the surface evenly.
05
Step
Spread half of the meat mixture over the crusts, distributing it in an even layer.
06
Step
Arrange 2 more pie crusts on top of the meat mixture, creating a second layer.
07
Step
Spread the remaining meat mixture over the second layer of crusts, ensuring an even distribution.
08
Step
Cover with the remaining 2 pie crusts, gently pressing and stretching them to the sides of the pan to seal the pie.
09
Step
Use a knife to poke 8 small holes on top of the pie, allowing steam to escape during baking.
10
Step
Bake in the preheated oven until the top crust is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly. (Approximately 1 hour)
For a richer flavor, consider browning the meat in batches to avoid overcrowding the Dutch oven.
Homemade pie crusts are recommended for the best flavor and texture, but store-bought crusts can be used as a convenient alternative.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the meat mixture, such as carrots, potatoes, or mushrooms, to customize the dish to your liking.
If the crust begins to brown too quickly during baking, tent the pie with foil to prevent burning.
