This tourtière was a bit too salty for my taste, but otherwise it was delicious. The filling was moist and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I would recommend this recipe, but I would reduce the amount of salt in the filling.

This tourtière was okay, but not great. The filling was a bit bland and the crust was a bit too thick. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I was really looking forward to trying this tourtière, but it was a let down. The filling was dry and the crust was tough. I think I might have used too much flour. I will try this recipe again with less flour and see if that makes a difference.

This tourtière was a disappointment. The filling was bland and the crust was soggy. I think I used the wrong type of flour. I will try this recipe again with a different flour and see if that makes a difference.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my tourtière turned out dry and bland. The filling was not very flavorful and the crust was tough. I think I might have overcooked it. I will try this recipe again, but I will be more careful with the cooking time.

I'm not usually a fan of meat pies, but this one was really good. The filling was moist and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and buttery. I especially liked the addition of the spices, which gave the pie a nice depth of flavor.
