Yum..... I intend to make a family one and some individual ones too. Always handy for lunch. The filling tastes nice so can't wait to try the pies  :)

Just filled the pies and looking good. The filling tastes delicious and great idea to leave it overnight. Made Maggie Beers Sour cream pastry as I always find it foolproof and yummy. Can't wait to try my first thermie beef dish  :)

Pie was yummy and every bit as good if not better than slow cooking method. Meat was melt in mouth tender and made thermie mash potatoes, steamed asparagus, carrots and peas. A winner and will be a regular. DH didn't notice anything different which is a huge plus for thermie after almost 38 years of my cooking!!!! That says it all in my book  :D

Made this on Sunday to have on Monday, made pies, not well liked wouldn't make again. Don't know whether it was the wine, I don't know a lot about wines so I used a Shiraz, the meat was ok I used gravy beef.

That's a shame Yvette, I love this in pies. I just use whatever wine I have open, I think Shiraz would have been fine. Never mind, plenty of other recipes to try!

I made this recipe yesterday for some pies but when I had a handful too much meat more than was required, I also made a little stew for DH.  For the pies I ended up mixing the Gourmet beef casserole and the meat/veg stew together and we had 2 pies each for lunch - they were delicious.  I did make 4 pies with just the gourmet beef mixture on it's own so when we have them I will report back on what I think.

I made this for dinner tonight.  It was very tasty and the beef was amazingly tender.
Another winner  :)
Thanks for the recipe

I made this on Wednesday and made into a pie and I am just eating lunch leftovers of it now.
Even though the pastry is soft it still tastes great.
The only difference I made to this recipe, is that I didn't have any malt vinegar so I used 1 tspn of pickled onion juice.
