I got rave reviews from my family. Not sure if it was the cut of the meat or the red wine. I will be making this again. I also added fresh chopped garlic. The oven temp was not high enough to brown the potatoes in 7-8 min. I will try higher temp next time.

I used the lower part of a leg of lamb that I ground and then browned. The flavor was great, and it made a great meal for six of us. Half a bottle of wine was in with the lamb and the other half went to the cook. This was the first Shephard's Pie I had made and I would recommend it to anyone.

This was excellent. Instead of using rib meat I used prime ground meat. When I put the cups under the broiler I added a touch of cheese on the top. It was excellent, my dinner guests were very impressed.
