Beef Pot Pies with Shallots, Scallions & Leeks Seasoning

For the Dough:

  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 3/4 teaspoon fine salt
  • 1 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 3/4 cup grated Irish cheddar cheese (about 3 oz)
  • 6 to 7 tablespoons stout beer
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten (for egg wash)

For the Filling:

  • 2 1/4 lbs beef chuck roast, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup stout beer
  • 3 tablespoons Shallots, Scallions & Leeks Seasoning
  • 1 lb carrots, chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped into 1-inch pieces

Instructions:

  1. Make the dough: In a food processor, pulse flour and salt. Add butter and cheese and pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Drizzle in 6 tbsp beer and pulse until dough just comes together. Add 1 more tbsp beer if needed. Shape into a disk, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
  2. Prepare the filling: Preheat oven to 325°F. Toss beef with flour, salt, and pepper. In a Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat. Brown the beef, then deglaze with beer and 2 cups water. Bring to a simmer, cover, and braise in the oven for 30 minutes.
  3. Add Shallots, Scallions & Leeks Seasoning, carrots, and celery. Continue braising 1 hour more. Once tender, remove from oven and adjust seasoning to taste.
  4. Assemble pot pies: Preheat oven to 375°F. Divide filling among six 10-oz ramekins. Roll dough into a 10x15-inch rectangle, cut into six 5-inch squares, and slit the tops. Cover each ramekin with a dough square, pressing edges to seal. Brush with egg wash.
  5. Bake: Place ramekins on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until crust is golden and crisp. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.
