"As I ate the oysters with their strong taste of the sea and their faint metallic taste that the cold white wine washed away, leaving only the sea taste and the succulent texture, and as I drank their cold liquid from each shell and washed it down with the crisp taste of the wine, I lost the empty feeling and began to be happy, and to make plans."--Ernest Hemingway

Ingredients:  
3 pounds ground pork
2 and 1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/4 tsp allspice
1/2 tsp sage
1 tsp poultry seasoning
1 tsp cinnamon
2/3 cup chopped onion
water
3 medium potatoes
pastry for 2 double crusted pies
Directions:
Directions:
In a large skillet, combine pork, salt, pepper, allspice, sage, poultry seasoning, cinnamon and onion. Add enough water to cover. Simmer uncovered for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, mashing often with a fork during the first hour to separate the meat. The liquid will dissipate during cooking, leaving a very moist meat filling. Strain the cooked meat to remove excess fat. Boil potatoes until they are soft. Mash them and stir them into meat mixture. Preheat the oven to 450º. Divide the filling into two unbaked pie crusts. Place top crusts over the pies, crimp the edges, and brush lightly with milk. Bake at 450º for 10 min, reduce heat to 350º and continue baking for 30 to 40 min or until crust is golden.
