Handy Meat Pies

My Mom made these and they are SO good!  They aren't very large so definitely 2 for most adults. So yummy!  Mom used italian sausage (squeeze out of tubes).  You can use hot if you want.

Handy Meat Pies

3/4 pound ground beef
3/4 pound bulk pork sausage
1 medium onion, chopped
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1 garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 tablespoon water
2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tubes (12 oz each) buttermilk biscuits

• In a large skillet, cook beef and sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Add onions and garlic; cook until tender. Stir in parsley, water, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Heat through. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• On a floured surface, pat 10 biscuits into 4-in. circles. Top each with about 1/3 cup of the meat mixture. Pat remaining biscuits into 5-in. circles and place over filling; seal edges with water. Press edges together with a fork dipped in flour; pierce the top.
• Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375° for 12-14 minutes or until golden brown and filling is hot.
