- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Shred the roast or chop into bite size pieces.
- Peel and cube the potatoes.
- Mix the roast, potatoes, salt and pepper in a large bowl.
- Unroll the pie crusts and cut in half.
- Put a good amount of filling in each crust, fold over, and seal.
- Place each pastry on a greased cookie sheet. Make a couple of small slits in the top of each crust.
- Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with some melted butter.
- Serve with gravy.
For Beef Gravy
- Bring ingredients to a boil to thicken, stirring constantly with a whisk.
Notes
- Crockpot: An easy way to prepare the roast is to cook it in a crock pot with 1 cup of water and an onion soup mix along with whatever seasonings you like for 3-4 hours on high or 8 hours on low.
- Oven Roasted: See our recipe for oven roasting. This will take about 3 hours.
- Instant Pot: To save time, prepare the roast in the Instant Pot. This cuts the cooking time in half. The roast can be prepared and ready to go in 1 1/2 hours.
