Follow The Directions

01

Step

Gather all ingredients, ensuring they are prepped and measured. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped apples, diced cooked beef, golden raisins, granulated sugar, beef broth, orange segments, sorghum molasses, sweet pickle juice, pineapple juice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground cloves, and sea salt. (10 minutes)

03

Step

Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are evenly distributed and well combined. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Transfer the mincemeat pie filling to an airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for up to three months until ready to use. (5 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider adding 1/4 cup of brandy or dark rum to the filling. Stir it in after mixing all other ingredients.
If you prefer a chunkier filling, you can use coarsely chopped apples instead of finely chopped.
To prevent the apples from browning, toss them with a tablespoon of lemon juice before adding them to the bowl.
This filling can be used in pies, tarts, or even as a topping for ice cream or yogurt.

    Used dried cherries and it was amazing.

  • Elta Bernier

    I used molasses instead of sorghum and it worked perfectly. It's a great alternative if you don't have sorghum on hand.

    I was hesitant to try it with beef, but it was surprisingly delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.
