Steps:
- Place potatoes in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Set over high heat, and bring to a boil, then turn down to simmer.
- When potatoes are fork tender, drain and return to the saucepan. Add 4 tablespoons of butter, milk, salt, and pepper, and mash until thoroughly combined. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Spray a 11x17 glass dish or 2 quart casserole, and set aside.

- Add the meat to the same pan and brown until cooked through, breaking up with spoon as it cooks.
- Drain cooked meat and add to the vegetable mixture. Set aside.
- To make sauce, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same pan, and let it melt. Sprinkle the flour over the melted butter and whisk together, it may become clumpy.
- Add a quarter cup of the broth to the butter and flour, and whisk until smooth and thick. Slowly add the rest of the broth, and whisk until smooth.
- Add the chopped chipotle peppers to sauce, and whisk until well combined. Cooking until sauce is thick.
- Add the meat and vegetable mixture to the sauce. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper or more chipotle peppers, if needed.
- Spread the meat and vegetable mixture in the bottom of an 11x7 casserole dish.
- Spread the potatoes evenly over the meat mixture.
- Sprinkle cheese evenly and generously over the potatoes.
