Cumberland Pie
This Cumberland Pie features tender feather blade beef slow-cooked in a rich sauce, topped with rounds of par-cooked potato and a generous scattering of cheese. It’s a hearty dish that comes together with a long, gentle braise in the oven, allowing the beef to become incredibly soft and the sauce to thicken. You can assemble the pie a day ahead and keep it chilled, or even freeze it for later, making it a good candidate for meal prep.
