Saw Dale Benson's wok & some of what Dazzo & others had to say & thought to put up my 1st "Lump Disco" cookup............
Ok....
This was interesting.....
I don't bake...one day at a time....
The wife interrupted reading her novel to come & help, so I was able to limp thru the process...
1st, mixed up the innards ~~>

We decided that neither of us like cayenne enough, so I used the mushroom / cajun spice
in it's place & some California chili powder for red flakes ground...

Used a bit more coal that what you see here to cook the filling...

I have a question about this point here,
the recipe says cook meat, sift flour in
It seems the flour just soaked the oils up but didn't quite make a thick gravy like I thought it might...
There was really nothing to drain out as it cooled
Should I maybe sift the flour right at the start ?
Didn't taste bad or anything, just didn't seem to do much ??
You can see here as I made sort of a Grand Coulee Dam of meat that it wasn't loose enough to slide back in...

The wife made up the dough, they were a bit varied in size & shape as I think she's really enjoying her book...
Didn't have any trouble at all getting the right amount of coal & up to 350� lickety split....
AND PIE NUMBER ONE !!!

These were great flaky with some chew to the crust & a smooth, even taste to the filling, real good !!
Thanks, Manana for the recipe & George for testing the waters !!!
