Steps:
- Cut chicken, beef, and pork into 1 inch cubes, and place in a large bowl. Stir in onions. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
- Arrange salt pork evenly in the bottom of a 3 quart casserole dish with a cover. Layer with 1/3 of the meat mixture and 1/3 of the potatoes; season with salt and pepper. Roll out half of the pastry a little bit thicker than for a normal pie and arrange on the potato layer, cutting a small hole in the middle. Repeat with 2 more layers of meat and potatoes seasoned with salt and pepper. Cover with remaining pastry, and cut a small hole in the middle of that layer too. Slowly add enough chicken stock through the hole until liquid appears. Cover dish.
- Bake at 400 degrees F (205 degrees C) for 45 minutes, or until liquid simmers. Reduce temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Bake for 5 to 6 hours more, or until top crust is a rich golden brown.

LAC-ST-JEAN PIE - CIPâTE - TOURTIèRE DU LAC-ST-JEAN
This is the basic recipe for cipâte, the English call it Lake St. Jean Pie :) It is a traditional French Canadian pie served all year round made with veal, pork, chicken, and beef. In old days they made it with deer meat, rabbit, hare, duck or whatever meat the man brought home from hunting. Some pronounce it "cipaille" making the "T" silent. English pronounce it "sip-ale" :) It is pronounced "Sea-pout". I do hope you will try it some cold winter night. This is a long recipe but worth the making :)
