Well it's been -30 +for the last week so it's nice to have the oven on. I'm in between charcuterie projects. They're either in the fridge in Vacuum bags or in the chamber. Being so cold out I decided to make meat pies. I've been saving some wild sheep for something special. I made individual size pies.

Wild sheep meat pies.
This wouldn't be classed as Mutton, this would be lamb. This was a ewe lamb so very tender. Much closer in taste to young venison. Very simple spices for this. Fried onions and some bacon, a little celery, and sheep, salt pepper, garlic and smoked Paprika. I did use beef stock for the liquid. Very nice with some homemade Artisan bread.
Bob, nope no vegies. This is a traditional Prairie meat pie. If you were light on meat you might add a few root vegetables like turnip or spuds. I prefer all meat.
