Title: Smoked Turkey Sheperd's Pie
Post by: smoker pete on February 07, 2012, 06:34:49 PM

Sheperd's Pie is comfort food at it's best!!  Here's a wonderful variation using a leftover Hickory Smoked Turkey Breast.  You can substitute Chicken for the Turkey.

• 12 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese (Costco Mexican style Blend)

What a great idea!  I love Sheperd's Pie.  I had a variation using fish in Scotland last year, called Fisherman's Pie.  It was outstanding.

Everytime I have gone to Colorado Springs, we have gone to the Broadmore Hotel and the Golden Bee pub.  They have a really good Shepherd's Pie, too.

Ditto what Art said; Great idea! I love shepherd's pie too and never though of using turkey breast.
