      Those miners migrated to the mines of Canada and Michigan and brought the recipe with them.

      @@justusupnorth8262 Lard gives you a crispy, flakey crust. Butter gives you a nice brown crust. Mix is the best of both worlds.

      Have you or anyone else you know used "Crisco" rather than lard? I know it can be used for pie crust but not sure if it is used on pasties.

    Almost a Cornish pasty.
    Just use thinly sliced raw beef strips, or even ground beef, and slice the veggies thinner. Then add about ten times as much freshly ground black pepper.
    For extra indulgence, add a small knob of butter to the top of every filling, and poke a hole in the top to avoid them popping and leaking.

    Back in my younger heavy drinking days in my 20s my favourite hangover food was a Pasty warmed slightly in a microwave. Then put it between two slices of bread with lots of butter, ketchup, mayo (well salad cream, but Im guessing you cant get that there). The butter melts thru the pasty and bread, and adds to the yummy

    Very interesting that pasties are a Michigan tradition. As a child in Ireland I had them (via Britain) and I think the filling prior to baking contained raw minced beef (hamburger). I’d be interested in trying it your way.

    • @jimdavis8391

      Should be a diced brisket or cheaper cut of beef with potatoes. There seems to be much argument about what makes up a correct Cornish pasty though!

    Have you tried making them the Cornish way - putting the meat in raw and adding a bit of butter and flour to the internal ingredients? It creates a sort of gravy inside the pastie from the meat and vegetable cooking juices.

    Similar to my mothers beef pot pie. Se made a double crusted pot pie in a 9X13 pan almost the same and served the beef broth on the side for those who wanted it. I remember she used a good bit of sage in it.. Made the house smell wonderful

    I recall eating pasties in upper Wisconsin and Michigan whenever I could find a restaurant serving them. Seems like they came over with the English hard rock miners who worked in the copper mines in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. I really enjoy the taste but hadn’t run across how to make them. Thanks for sharing your recipe.

  • @jeromethiel4323

    I knew people who would wrap a couple of pasties in paper towel or a handkerchief and stick in an inside pocket when leaving to go deer hunting. They are good cold, and don't make a huge mess. Just the thing for a snack while you are out in your deer stand.

    Eh? A Michigan tradition? That's a Cornish Pasty! Ah well, love that you are making one of my favorite foods either way.
    The italian sausage was a new one for me.. I wouldn't have thought of that, as it'd be soft, where a pasty's meat should be "filling" (if you get me?).. But Im up for trying.. with the steak that might work well. Also I'd use a much much much cheaper cut of steak :D (usually just use the skirt, Americans probably call that something different)

Try putting some cubed pumpkin in your vegetable mix too. Sometimes I put a light drizzle of my favourite bbq sauce in when I wrap them up as well.

    I come from the home of the pasty, Cornwall. The meat, chopped with onion,swede and potatoes are put in the pastry case raw...., never,ever cooked before hand. The steam in the pasty cooks the ingredients. And you never put carrot in a pasty 😡. We call that an emmett pasty. Emmett is the word we use to call the English. Brown sauce,not ketchup🤢 and eaten holding it in the hand. Not knife or fork.
