Steak and Guinness Pie Recipe

One of my favorite things about visiting England was checking out some of the local pubs. No, not for a few drinks, but for some delicious British pub food. I tried out several different quintessential pub dishes during my visit – cottage pie, bangers and mash, and of course, steak and ale pie.

When I got home, I began working on this steak and Guinness pie and let me tell you, it’s mighty tasty! It’s a great option for St. Patrick’s Day, but let me tell you – we enjoy it any day. It’s delicious comfort food.

You can, of course, make some changes to this recipe according to your preferences. I know quite a few people who like to add mushrooms, but being allergic to them, that’s one ingredient I left out.

My dad always preferred his pie to be a mixture of steak and kidney. They were good but other than Dad, I’m one of the few people in my family who will eat organ meats. And the more steak the better in my world!

You can certainly add in some vegetables if you’d like – it will take on a slightly more “pot pie” type of taste but still have the richness of the Guinness gravy. Yum! Peas, carrots, corn, and green beans are all good options.
