Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs cooked BBQ pulled pork
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 4 tbsp butter
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Boil the potatoes until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
  3. While potatoes boil, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the cooked BBQ pulled pork, frozen peas, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, allowing flavors to blend. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Pour the pork mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Spread the mixture evenly across the bottom.
  6. Mash the boiled potatoes with milk and butter until smooth and creamy. Season the mash with salt and pepper.
  7. Spoon the mashed potatoes over the pork filling. Use a fork to create peaks on the potato surface.
  8. If using, sprinkle the cheddar cheese over the top.
  9. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
  10. Let the pie rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy that Sunday Flavor!

Notes

  • You can use store-bought pulled pork to save time on busy weeknights.
  • For extra richness in the topping, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • If your BBQ sauce is very sweet, add a small dash of apple cider vinegar to the filling for balance.
