Ingredients:

Serving

4 celery ribs
4 medium carrots
2 large onions
2 garlic cloves, peeled
4 lb ground pork
2 lb ground veal
2 lb bulk pork sausage
1 can (14-1/2 oz) chicken broth
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley
1 tbsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried rosemary, crushed
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp ground mace
1 tsp ground cloves
1 cup dry bread crumbs
pastry for four double-crust pies (9 inches)

Directions:

Coarsely chop the celery, carrots and onions; place in a food processor with garlic. Cover and process until finely chopped; set aside.
In a stockpot or two Dutch ovens, cook the vegetables, pork, veal and sausage until meat is no longer pink; drain. Stir in the broth, parsley and seasonings. Reduce heat; cover and cook on low for 20 minutes. Stir in bread crumbs.
Line four 9-in. pie plates with bottom crusts; trim pastry even with edges. Fill each with about 4 cups filling. Roll out remaining pastry to fit tops of pies; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in pastry. Cover and freeze some of the pies for up to 3 months if desired.
Cover edges of remaining pies loosely with foil. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes. Reduce heat to 350°; remove foil and bake 15-20 minutes longer or until crusts are golden brown.
To bake frozen pies: Unwrap pies; cover edges loosely with foil. Bake at 400° for 25 minutes. Reduce heat to 350° remove foil and bake 50-60 minutes longer or until crusts are golden brown. Yield: 4 pies (8 servings each).
