Braised Beef Pot Pie with Biscuit Topping. Family style beef pot pie, slow cooked to tender perfection with easy buttermilk biscuit topping; an ideal Sunday supper.
Braised Beef Pot Pie with Biscuit Topping.
Beef pot pie is synonymous with comfort food. I personally love any kind of savoury pie for dinner.
These are recipes like our easy steak and onion pie using store bought puff pastry. And especially, classic chicken and roasted vegetable pot pie with a flaky homemade pastry.
Small pebbles of butter left in the flour is the key to a flaky biscuit.
I often refer to these as “winter warm up meals” and they really are the kind of stick-to-your-ribs dinners folks crave at that time of year.

Classic pot pies an be quite time consuming though, so it’s nice to have another comfort food alternative to turn to. One that doesn’t take as much effort as making pastry for a top and bottom crust pie.
I like to use Chuck/Blade roast for this recipe.
The shortcut in our house most often some quickly prepared buttermilk biscuits. They get baked on top of the beef filling after it has been braised to tender perfection for a few hours.

If you’re looking to boost the flavour of this biscuit topping even more, add some chopped fresh herbs. Chives, rosemary or oregano can be added to the biscuits or even a little grated Parmesan or white cheddar cheese.
You can of course add vegetables or mushrooms to the stewed beef in the last hour or so of braising. However, I most often like to serve it with mashed or roasted potatoes and vegetables on the side.
