Fried Meat Pies - Cowboy Kent Rollins

Servings 12 pies

Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef 80/20
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon ancho chile powder
  • 2 cups chopped cabbage
  • 1/3 cup diced Anaheim peppers 1
  • 1/3 cup cup diced jalapeño
  • 1/3 cup cup grated carrot
  • 1/3 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1/3 cup chopped green onions
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

Instructions

  • In a large cast iron skillet, brown the meat over medium heat. Add the paprika, cumin, oregano, and ancho chile and mix well.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer for about 3 minutes to blend the flavors.
  • Stir in the cabbage, Anaheim peppers, jalapeño, carrot, onion, green onions, and garlic. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the Worcestershire.
  • Spoon about 2 heaping tablespoons onto each dough circle. Fold over and crimp the edges with your fingers or a fork.
  • In a medium saucepan, heat 2 to 3 inches of oil over medium-high heat until about 350°F.
  • Fry the pies, a few at a time, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Serve warm.

Notes

You can also bake at 350 degrees F. for about 20 minutes, or until lightly browned and dough has cooked through.
