How do you make Irish Cheddar & Potato Biscuit Meat Pies?

1. Preheat your oven to 350° F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to save on clean up time.
2. Saute the chopped onions in olive oil over medium-high heat, in a large skillet. Cook until the onions have softened, which should be about 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Add in the ground beef and pour in the Guinness beer; stir until the meat has browned and is no longer pink. Remove the grease from the cooked meat.
4. Mix in the thawed hash browns and shredded Irish cheddar cheese. Combine well. Season to preferred taste with salt and pepper.
5. Separate the biscuit dough and roll out each biscuit into a 5-inch flat circle on a floured surface.
6. Add a spoonful of the meat and cheese mixture to the middle of each flattened biscuit. Optional: Sprinkle with chopped cabbage. Lift up the sides of the biscuit around the meat, pinching and crimping the dough together to create a seam that encases the meat mixture. The meat pies may open at the top slightly during the baking process.
7. Arrange each filled biscuit on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops and sides with melted butter and lightly season the tops of each meat pie with salt.
8. Bake for about 30 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are thoroughly cooked and not doughy in texture.
9. Serve with a dollop of sour cream, if you’d like, and sprinkle parsley on the tops of each meat pie.
10. Enjoy!!
