Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 small peeled and chopped onion
14 tablespoons (1 stick plus 3/4 stick) divided butter
1 1/2 lbs cubed leftover pot roast
8 to 10 medium red new potatoes
2 cups milk
1/2 cup sour cream
2 cups instant biscuit mix
1 1/2 cups prepared according to package directions niblet corn or mixed vegetables

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 °F.
Pot Roast Layer:
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute onion in 2 tablespoons butter. Add pot roast and cook until browned. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.
Potato Layer:
Peel and slice potatoes 1/4-inch thick. Place in a saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil. Cook for approximately 15 minutes or until fork tender. Drain potatoes and transfer to a mixing bowl. Whip potatoes with an electric mixer, mixing until moderately smooth. Don't over beat them; a few lumps are nice. Add 1/2 cup heated milk, 1 stick butter, and sour cream. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Whip again until mixed. Adjust thickness by adding more milk, if desired.
Biscuit Layer:
Combine biscuit mix and 1 1/2 cups of milk. The mix should be thinner than that of normal biscuit mix but not runny.
Spray a 9 by 9 by 2-inch pan (or any similar casserole dish) with cooking spray. Layer mashed potatoes halfway up the sides of the dish. Next, spread a layer of corn or mixed vegetables on top of the potatoes. Then add the layer of pot roast and onions with gravy. Pour the biscuit mix over the meat. Melt 4 tablespoons of butter and drizzle over top. Bake for approximately 35 to 45 minutes or until top is golden brown. Let stand for a few minutes before serving.

Tips:

Use a large skillet or Dutch oven to brown the beef and vegetables. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the ingredients from sticking.
If you don't have a meat grinder, you can purchase ground beef from the store. Just be sure to choose a lean ground beef, such as 85% lean or 90% lean.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the shepherd's pie, such as carrots, celery, or peas.
If you want a thicker gravy, you can add a cornstarch slurry to the mixture. To make a cornstarch slurry, whisk together 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Then, stir the slurry into the gravy and cook until thickened.
To make the shepherd's pie ahead of time, simply assemble the casserole and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours. When you're ready to serve, bake the casserole according to the recipe instructions.

Conclusion:

Paula Deen's shepherd's pie is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter night. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try!
