re: Curious: Are Natchitoches Meat Pies Made The Same In Southern LA?

Making your own meat pies is pretty easy. I use store-bought pie crusts without sweetener (you have to check the label).

The traditional recipe for the crust has a leavening agent. I don't like the crust to be puffy, that's why I use regular pie crust. They are the best meat pies you ever ate.
