This tourtière was a great success! The filling was moist and flavorful, and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I served it with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy, and it was the perfect comfort food.

This tourtière was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I should have used less salt in the filling.

The flavor of this tourtière was good, but the crust was a bit too tough. I think I should have rolled it out thinner.

This tourtière was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I should have added more liquid to the filling. The crust was good though.

This tourtière recipe was a hit at our New Year's Eve party. The combination of ground pork, beef, and veal made for a flavorful and hearty filling, while the flaky pastry crust was the perfect complement. I highly recommend this recipe to anyone loo
