Tourtiere a L'orignal (French Canadian Moose Meat Pie) image

This is my Memere's tourtiere recipe, tweaked a bit, but don't tell her that. One does not mess with a French woman's meat pie recipe, lol. All the men in my family are moose hunters. This is one way we use the ground moose meat. Moose meat is very lean so do not cut back on the ground pork.

This tourtière was just okay. I think I would have preferred it with a different type of gravy.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tourtière turned out dry and crumbly. I think I might have overcooked it.

This tourtière was a little too gamey for my taste. I think I would prefer it with a different type of meat.
