Pork Pot Pie with Peppered Corn Bread Crust

 


                There's a lot of flexibility to this recipe. Season it up or down using your favorite chili recipe as a guide. Bake it either in individual portions or in a 2½-quart dish. You can make the meat mixture ahead and refirgerate it a day or so before adding the biscuitlike cornmeal topping. Chilled, it will take a few extra minutes to bake, A great cold-weather dish!
