First off,
please approach this page in a mature manner - the title is
Antelope Pie, not American Pie. I have not personally tasted
this recipie, in fact, I'm quite sure it tastes very disgusting.
But that shouldn't stop you...the next time you have some fresh
antelope steaks left over please go ahead and try this recipie.
This may even become you favorite type of pie, better than pumpkin
or apple or possibly even American pie itself.
For
the Crust:
1 cup flour
1/2 cup shortening
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup mashed potatoes
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup water
For the Filling:
1 1/2 lb antelope steak
1/3 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons flour
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon salt
Water
Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder; cut or rub
in the shortening, add the mashed potato and mix to a dough
with the water, then chill while preparing the meat.
Cut the steak into thin strips, dip each in the flour, salt,
pepper and cloves which have been stirred together. Put a small
piece of fat in the center of each strip of meat, roll up and
place in a deep baking dish or casserole. Half fill the dish
with water, cover closely and bake in a slow oven for one hour,
after which remove the cover, roll out the crust and put it
in place over the meat; return to and bake twenty-five minutes
longer.
A few small pieces of kidney, or oysters or mushrooms may be
cooked with the meat to give variety in flavor.
