Steps:

• 1. PREP/PREPARE
• 2. I am topping this recipe with mash potatoes; however, it would be great served over a bed of homemade egg noodles, or even over rice. Here is the recipe I am using for the taters. https://www.justapinch.com/recipes/side/potatoes/holiday-essentials-slow-cooker-mash-taters.html?r=5 FYI: I added some sharp cheddar cheese to the taters... Because I can.
• 3. You will need a large skillet to cook the filling. In addition, you will need small dishes that are capable of holding the ingredients. I am using white ramekins that hold 8 ounces (225g) each. Based on the ingredients you should be able to make about five of these. Or you could put all the ingredients into a standard ovenproof deep pie dish.
• 4. If you make more of the filling than you need, understand that it freezes very well, and if frozen properly will last 4 - 6 months.
• 5. Gather your ingredients (mise en place).
• 6. Make some mashed taters and keep warm.
• 7. STAGE I
• 8. Add the butter and oil to a large skillet over medium heat.
• 9. When the butter melts, add the onions and carrots, then partially cook for about 2 - 3 minutes.
• 10. Add the garlic and stir for an additional 30 - 60 seconds.
• 11. STAGE II
• 12. Add the beef and chorizo.
• 13. Lower the heat a bit and cook until about 75% of the liquid has evaporated, about 10 - 12 minutes.
• 14. STAGE III
• 15. Add the dry spices.
• 16. Stir to combine, about 60 seconds.
• 17. STAGE IV
• 18. Add the remainder of the ingredients.
• 19. Stir and allow to simmer until the filling reduces and begins to thicken, about 10 - 15 minutes.
• 20. ASSEMBLY
• 21. Add the hot mixture to a small bowl (ramekin).
• 22. Lay a slice of provolone on top, if using.
• 23. Cover with the warm mash taters, and a pat of butter.
• 24. If you wish, you can pop them under a broiler until the taters begin to brown in spots, about 1 - 2 minutes.
• 25. PLATE/PRESENT
• 26. Serve with some dinner rolls or crusty bread, and maybe a small side salad. Enjoy.
• 27. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.
