Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked prime rib
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 2 medium Carrots, diced
• 2 medium Celery stalks, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Beef stock
• 0.5 cups Irish stout beer
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 2 sheets Packaged puff pastry sheets, thawed
• 1 Egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet or heavy-bottomed pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet. Cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and sauté for another minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the vegetables and stir well to coat. Cook for 1–2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Slowly pour in the beef stock while stirring continuously to avoid lumps. Add the Irish stout beer and continue stirring until the mixture thickens.

Step 7

Mix in the chopped thyme, salt, and black pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes.

Step 8

Stir in the cooked prime rib pieces and frozen peas. Allow the filling to cool slightly while you prepare the pastry.

Step 9

On a lightly floured surface, roll out one puff pastry sheet and use it to line the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish, letting the edges hang slightly over the rim.

Step 10

Spoon the prime rib filling into the pastry-lined dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 11

Roll out the second puff pastry sheet and place it over the pie. Press the edges of the top and bottom pastry sheets together to seal them, then trim off any excess dough.

Step 12

Using a knife, cut a few small slits in the top pastry to allow steam to escape while baking.

Step 13

Brush the surface of the pie with the beaten egg for a golden and shiny crust.

Step 14

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch any drips and bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.

Step 15

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
