Cook Time: Filling 50 mins, Pies 40 mins
Prep Time: 30 minutes

Instructions

  1. Light Akorn and bring to 300Fwith the heat deflector out
  2. While BBQ is heating dice two medium onions
  3. Lightly coat the leftover brisket in flour
  4. Once BBQ is at temperature place a cast iron pot or deep-dish pan on the grill
  5. Place a good knob of butter in the bottom on the pan and once melted add the meat to brown
  6. Once heated through remove the meat into a bowl and place to one side
  7. Pour the cup of wine into the pan and stir until simmering
  8. Pour the wine and any meat that has come off the bottom and sides of the pan into the meat mixture
  9. In the now empty pan place another knob of butter. Once melted add the diced onions and stir until clear
  10. Wearing heatproof gloves remove the pan from the grate, lift the grate and place in the heat deflector
  11. Place the pan back onto the grate
  12. Return the meat and wine mix back into the pan along with the tomato paste and mustard
  13. Pour the beef stock into the mix until everything is well covered and thoroughly stir
  14. Leave pan uncovered on the grate, shut the Akorn lid and allow to reduce
  15. While the filling is reducing take the sheets of short pastry and cut out the base and lid of the pies (the size of the base and lid will depend on the tray the pies will be cooked in. I recommend a muffin tray because the depth allows for more filling)
  16. Leave filling to cook for approximately 40 minutes or until the meat is falling apart and the liquid has the consistency of gravy
  17. Spray the muffin tray well with cooking oil then place the pastry for the base
  18. Scoop in a ladle full of filling and top with a handful of mozzarella cheese
  19. Place the lids on the pies and use a fork to press the edges to join the lid and the base
  20. Place the tray back into the BBQ for approximately another 4 minutes or until the pastry has a golden-brown crust
  21. Remove from the BBQ and cool for 10 minutes
  22. Using a butter knife to assist, gently remove the pies from the trays and serve
