1 1/2 lb. ground beef
ketchup
(just a few big squirts)
1 egg
1 slice of white bread
(broken into small pieces)
splash of milk
dash of hot sauce
salt
pepper
1/2 bottle beer
Combine all of the above ingredients. Pat into 8x8 glass dish. Pour the other 1/2 of beer over top to prevent burning. Bake at 350 for 50-55 minutes. Drain most of the liquid.
Top with mashed potatoes - be generous here. I would love to share my own mashed potatoes recipe but I'm convinced they'll make me famous one day, so until then, make whatever kind you'd like :)
Top with 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese. Your dish will runneth over. Some people don't even add cheese. I don't understand them. Jane and I don't always agree on politics, but we do agree that everything is better with cheddar.
Pop in the oven for about 10 minutes until cheese is all melted.
Remove and serve warm.
* I know some people put vegetables in their shepherd's pie (actually, I think you're supposed to), but we don't really roll like that. Sometimes I do hide veggies in my meatloaf, but for this - I just serve them on the side. Enjoy!

Yeah, I think veggies in a dish like this are kind of dumb. Sounds yummy!
I just read this again... one LOAF of white bread?
Oops! That would be a lot of bread indeed. You only need one SLICE of bread. Can someone change that for me please?
Damn Blogger won't let me edit posts at home. Shuts me down every time I click "edit post." And the damn Blogger people won't help me. Are you listening Blogger people??
I have NEVER made shephard's pie.
Does that make me sheltered?
