    I gave three stars because these are so salty and way too much pepper, I cannot eat them plain. Are you certain is not a teaspoon on all these salt/pepper measures instead of tablespoons?? I ate one pie and feel like I just ate a box of salt. Otherwise would be good.

    Upper Michigan Pasties, This is my version of a yooper pastie–just like my Mother-in-law made , I gave three stars because these are so salty and way too much pepper, I cannot eat them plain Are you certain is not a teaspoon on all these salt/pepper measures instead of tablespoons?? I ate one pie and feel like I just ate a box of salt Otherwise would be good , My grandmother lived in the U P all her life she used to make these all the time she made them a little bit bigger and I think she used chuck roast with the fat cut off and just cut it into small pieces just a thought Otherwise pretty much the same the Lard is the key
