TAVERN BEEF AND PORK PIE

Steps:

• In a large skillet, saute the precooked beef and pork cubes, onions, and garlic in the butter over high heat for 5 minutes, until the onions are golden brown. Add the red wine to deglaze the pan, loosening any browned bits on the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add the mushrooms, basil, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper and cook until the liquid has evaporate. Stir in the demi-glace and cook about 5 minutes more, until all liquid has evaporated again. Remove from the heat. Spread the mixture out onto a baking sheet and let it cool for 10 minutes. Refrigerate the mixture about 1 hour to cool completely.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to 1/8-inch thickness. Cut out 6 (6 to 8-inch) squares and brush the edges with the egg mixture. Place 1 cup of the meat mixture in the center of each square. Fold each square over diagonally to form a triangle and press the edges firmly to seal. Using a fork, gently prick the center of each triangle to allow steam to escape. Lightly brush the edges again with the egg mixture.
• Arrange the triangles 2 inches apart on a greased baking sheet. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden brown.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a small bowl, mix together the oil, salt, and pepper. Rub the oil mixture over the meats. Roast the pork shoulder about 1 hour. Roast the beef chuck about 1 1/2 hours, until a meat thermometer registers 170 degrees for each meat. Remove the meats from the oven and let cool for 20 minutes. Cover and refrigerate up to one day or until ready to use.

TAMALE PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 2 ½-quart casserole or a 12-inch ovenproof pan or skillet with nonstick cooking spray.
• Heat a large skillet (if you are planning to bake the Tamale Pie in a skillet, use the one you are planning to bake it in) over medium heat. Add the beef and pork (if using) and sauté stirring to break up any lumps, until the meat is browned. Turn the meat into a colander to drain.
• Return the pan to the heat and add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onion and bell pepper and sauté for 4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp tender. Add the garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt and pepper and stir until you can smell the garlic, about 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, broth, corn, beans and the drained cooked meat. Bring the mixture to a simmer and simmer, stirring occasionally for 5 minutes.
• While the mixture simmers, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, mix the milk, egg, scallions (if using) and butter together. Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir just until they are barely combined.
• If you are baking the casserole in a casserole pan, transfer the meat mixture to that casserole. Otherwise leave the mixture in the ovenproof pan. Sprinkle the cheese over the meat mixture. Spread the cornbread topping evenly over the cheese; it helps to dollop it on by rounded tablespoons, then use a knife or offset spatula to spread it out fairly evenly.
• Bake the casserole until the top is lightly browned and set, about 25 minutes. Place the skillet on a wire rack to cool for at least 10 minutes. Serve the Tamale Pie hot or warm.
