A New England-style tourtiere: ground beef (hamburger) and ground pork simmered with onion, blended with mashed potatoes and allspice, and baked in pie crusts.

Directions

1. Cook hamburger and pork with onions, in pot with enough water to cover meat, until all water is evaporated. Allow to cook slowly.
2. While resting, boil potatoes and mash. When meat is finished, drain what little water is left, add the potatoes to meat and mix well, adding the spices and salt and pepper.
3. Fill prepared pie crusts with meat filling, cut vents in top of crust and coat with milk or egg wash and cook to desired temperature til crust is golden brown. I think that is at 375 degrees.
