This is an astounding and simple recipe on a cold night. It's been in my family for three generations down from my French Canadian grandfather with minor variations. I use Pillsbury ready made crusts. Everyone asks me how I make them so perfect! I also serve mushroom or brown gravy from a packet. It really helps with the heaviness of the pie. All my family and friends are mad about it!!
