Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can I use different types of meat in this pie?
Absolutely! While this recipe uses leftover brisket, you can also use shredded chicken, pulled pork, or even ground beef. Just make sure to adjust the seasoning to match the meat you’re using.
Can I make the pie ahead of time?
Yes! You can assemble the pie ahead of time and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to bake it. Just cover it tightly with plastic wrap, and it will keep for up to 24 hours. You can also freeze the unbaked pie and bake it directly from frozen, just add an extra 10-15 minutes to the baking time.
What can I use instead of pie crust?
If you’re looking for a low-carb alternative, you can use a cauliflower crust or a keto-friendly dough. Another option is to make a “crustless” pie by layering the filling in a casserole dish and baking it with a cheesy topping.
