Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a 9-inch pie plate with one pie crust.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef for 5-7 minutes. Add onion, garlic, and carrots; cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in flour, then add beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Simmer for 10 minutes until thickened, then let it cool slightly.
  4. Pour the filling into the crust and cover with the second crust. Crimp edges and cut slits on top for steam to escape.
  5. Bake for about 30-35 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Cover edges with foil if they brown too quickly.
  6. Let the pie cool for 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to settle.
