Instructions
Making the beef filling
- Heat the Olive Oil over medium heat and then add the minced onion. Cook for about 3 minutes, or until softened. Next add the garlic and diced scotch bonnet and cook for 1 more minute.
- Add the beef and stir to combine then add the beef stock. The meat should just be covered. If not, add a little additional water.
- Stir in the seasonings and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer uncovered, until most of the liquid is evaporated, typically 30-45 minutes. the meat consistency should be similar to that of sloppy Joe's.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the green onion and parsley then stir in the bread crumbs, a little at a time.
- Cover and if necessary refrigerate until needed.
Making the pastry
- In a stand mixer or food processor with a dough hook combine all of the dry ingredients.
- Add in the butter and lard and mix until crumbly.
- Slowly add the cold water until the dough forms a ball. You may not need all of the water, or may need a little extra.
- Cover the ball and place in a refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- When you are ready to make the patties, remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide into 2 portions. Roll out the dough to about ⅙ of an inch thick.
- Cut into 6 inch rounds using a dough cutter, bowl, or large mouthed cup. Use the excess dough to form another ball and repeat the process until all of the dough is used.
- Fill each ball with about 3-4 tablespoons of meat filling. Fold the dough over the meat to form a half moon shape, and press the edges together to seal. Use a fork to crimp the edges.
- Heat your over or smoker to 350 degrees. If using a grill or smoker set up for indirect heat.
- Cook for 15 minutes, then flip over and cook for an additional 15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven or grill and serve warm.
