This recipe takes A LOT of time, A LOT of work, and it didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. What I will take away from it is learning how to make garlic asiago mashed potatoes, and you can cheat by using frozen plain potatoes. My husband thought it tasted good, but I didn't find it worth the effort and will not be making it again.

we loved this recipe! a few things i did differently was to use regular italian sweet sausage (johnsonville instead of the kind in casings...just easier..also, i cubed the bell peppers and threw them in with the other vegies..instead of roasting them whole and then trying to peel them, etc. much easier! i probably ended up using at least 1 cup of milk also for the potatoes...to make them more spreadable..and i substituted parmesan cheese for the asiago...a real crowd pleaser!

I was a little worried because the meat mixture didn't look as 'soupy' as on the show, and it tasted as though it was 'missing' something. But I followed the directions and during the cooking process, I could see it was bubbling quite well and not looking dry at all. I let it sit for 15 min after cooking and it turned out great! I think it called for a lot of pepper though, so when it came to the potatoes, I only sprinkled a pinch into the butter/garlic mixture. Glad I did. lol Next time, I will cook it in deep deep winter though! I have a/c, but omg...HOT kitchen! And I think I'd like to add fresh mushrooms to it and a side of whole green beans would round it out well. Thanks Guy! PS, we rated this a 4 because the kids (18 and 19 lol said it would be better with another veggie added in it. Oh and I sprinkled a bit of dried parsley leaves on it when it came out of the oven to make it look 'pretty' :P

That's all you could hear while this was being eaten, mmmmmmmmmm! This dish was absolutely amazing, and super comforting with a glass of wine. You absolutely must try this. Packed with flavor it guarantees to leave everyone happy and satisfied. Guy, by far, you are my favoite chef - inspiring me to use ingredients I have never used before, and make my family think I am an awesome cook. Perfect!

I had a lot of fun making this recipe for my little cousin who watches Guy all of the time. It came out just perfect and now we both know what a parsnip is all about. The Asiago garlic potatoes were just wonderful all alone too! This will fast become a family favorite. Thanks Guy!

Anyone who passes this recipe by is missing out. We LOVED it! Be sure to use parsnips as the recipe calls for, it adds a lot. It was the best Sheperds Pie I've ever tasted. Will definitely be making again!

The time this took to make was worth it. I cut up the veggies before roasting them, so I was able to take them right from oven into the meat. Next time I will try adding less stock and shorten the cooking time til just when potatoes have browned.

My husband declared this "good eats" (sorry Alton and even my picky 8-year old ate some. It was well worth the time it took to make this recipe and the smells coming from the kitchen were incredible. It reheats well too. I'll definitely make this whole recipe again - and the potatoes will be made again often.

Great recipe...I didn't have any Asiago cheese so I substituted Cheddar. I also didn't have any beef stock so I used chicken stock. I also used only ground beef. But it all came together beautifully. The roasted vegetables were SO flavorful! I roasted the garlic, bell peppers and carrots...and I added peas to the ground beef. The only thing that I found odd was that when I was watching Guy on the show, his beef mixture was very liquidy when he put it into the oven, but when I made it, the stock thickened up really quickly in the pan so I didn't have to leave it in the oven for too long...just until the top browned. This recipe is definitely a keeper!
