Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs beef chuck or stew meat, cubed
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons flour (for coating)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste
  • 1 1/2 cups Guinness stout
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or dried
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas optional, for added texture
  • 1 sheet puff pastry store-bought or homemade
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Season the beef with salt and pepper, then coat with flour. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef on all sides, then remove and set aside.
  • In the same pot, sauté onions, carrots, and celery for 5 minutes until softened. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Stir in tomato paste, then deglaze with Guinness stout, scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and bay leaf. Return the beef to the pot.
  • Cover the pot and simmer on low for 2-3 hours, until the beef is fork-tender. Stir in frozen peas, and discard the bay leaf.
  • Spoon the beef mixture into a pie dish or individual ramekins. Top with puff pastry, sealing the edges. Brush with beaten egg for a golden finish. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the crust is golden and crispy.
  • Let the pie cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with your favorite side dishes.
