Italian Pizzeria-Style Meat Pie image

This recipe was originally posted in my hometown Newspaper (Lawrence, MA), back in the 70s. The original recipe was lost, but with the help of my Mother, we've recreated it here. Note; the use of frozen bread dough is original to the authentic recipe.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my meat pie turned out terrible. The crust was tough and the filling was dry. I'm very disappointed.

This recipe was a disaster! The crust was raw and the filling was bland. I will not be making this again.

The crust was a bit soggy. I think I'll bake it for a few minutes longer next time.

This meat pie was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

I've made this meat pie several times and it's always a hit! The crust is flaky and the filling is savory and flavorful. I love that I can use different types of meat and cheese to create different variations.

This meat pie was easy to make and turned out delicious. I used ground turkey instead of beef and it was still very flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

I've tried many meat pie recipes, but this one is by far the best. The instructions were easy to follow and the pie turned out perfectly. The crust was golden brown and flaky, and the filling was moist and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe!

This Italian Pizzeria Style Meat Pie was a hit with my family! The crust was perfectly crispy and the filling was savory and flavorful. I especially loved the combination of ground beef, sausage, and pepperoni. I will definitely be making this again!
