There’s something magical about combining two comfort food classics into one show-stopping dish. Pot Roast Pot Pie takes the tender, savory flavors of slow-cooked pot roast and pairs them with a golden, cheesy biscuit topping. It’s a meal that feels like a warm hug on a chilly day. With every bite, you’ll savor the melt-in-your-mouth beef, hearty vegetables, and rich, flavorful gravy. Whether you’re preparing this for a weeknight dinner or a cozy gathering, these individual pot pies are the perfect way to turn a humble pot roast into something extra special.


Why You’re Going to Love This Recipe

  • Classic Comfort Food: This recipe blends two timeless dishes—pot roast and pot pie—for the ultimate cozy meal.
  • Cheesy Biscuit Topping: The cheddar-studded biscuits with a hint of garlic butter take this dish over the top.
  • Meal Prep Magic: Make the filling ahead of time for an easy, stress-free dinner when you’re short on time.
  • Perfect Portions: Served in individual ramekins, they’re as adorable as they are satisfying.

Ingredients You’ll Need

This recipe calls for a mix of classic pot roast ingredients, a cheesy biscuit topping, and a garlic butter finish. You’ll need:

  • Beef chuck roast, hearty vegetables, and pantry staples for the filling.
  • A box of cheddar bay biscuit mix, shredded cheddar, and milk for the topping.
  • Garlic, butter, and parsley for that finishing touch of flavor.

How to Make Pot Roast Pot Pie

Pot Roast Filling

pot roast pot pie

Season and sear the beef until golden brown, then set it aside. Sauté onions, stir in tomato paste, and let it cook until it releases its rich oils. Add flour and cook briefly, then deglaze with red wine, letting the alcohol simmer off. Combine the beef, stock, thyme, bay leaves, and garlic, then simmer until tender. Add carrots and potatoes, cooking until they’re soft. Finish with parsley and adjust the seasoning to taste.

Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping

Mix the dry biscuit mix with shredded cheddar and milk, stirring just until the dough comes together. Avoid over-mixing for the best texture.

Garlic Butter

Whisk together softened butter, garlic, parsley, and a pinch of salt. Set aside for brushing over the biscuit topping.

Assemble

Preheat the oven. Divide the filling between individual ramekins or a large baking dish, then top with the biscuit dough. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. As soon as they’re out of the oven, brush with garlic butter.


Storage and Reheating

These pot pies store beautifully, making them a great make-ahead meal.

  • Refrigerator: Let the pot pies cool completely, then cover tightly and store in the fridge for up to three days.
  • Freezer: Wrap each ramekin individually or cover your baking dish tightly with foil. Freeze for up to two months.

To reheat:

  • From the Fridge: Cover with foil and bake in a preheated oven until warmed through, uncovering for the last few minutes to crisp up the biscuit topping.
  • From Frozen: Thaw in the fridge overnight, then reheat as above. For a quicker option, bake straight from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

Tips for Success

  • Don’t rush the searing process—browning the beef adds layers of flavor to your filling.
  • Mix the biscuit dough gently for the perfect light and fluffy texture.
  • Use a baking tray under the ramekins to catch any potential spills during baking.

Enjoy the warmth and comfort of this hearty Pot Roast Pot Pie—it’s the dish you’ll want to make on repeat all season long!

Ingredients

  • 2-3 lbs chuck roast cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 3 cup beef stock
  • 1/2 cup potatoes chopped
  • 1 cup onion chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrots chopped
  • 1/2 cup red wine
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 3-4 sprigs thyme
  • 2 tbsp flour

  • 2 cups mild cheddar shredded
  • 3/4 cup milk

Garlic Butter

  • 1/2 stick butter softened
  • 1 tbsp garlic
  • Parsley dried
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

Pot Roast Filling

  • Season the beef generously with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil. Heat a pan over medium heat and sear the beef on both sides until golden brown. Once all the pieces are seared, set them aside.
  • In the same pan, sauté the onions for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant. Add the tomato paste and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until it deepens in color and releases its rich, golden oils.
  • Sprinkle in the flour, stirring continuously, and cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flavor.
  • Deglaze the pan with red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the alcohol to cook off.

  • When the beef is fork-tender, add the chopped carrots and potatoes. Cover the pan and cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft.
  • Finish by stirring in freshly chopped parsley, and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping

  • In a bowl, combine the dry biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk. Use a fork to mix until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to over-mix, you’re aiming for a slightly shaggy dough.

Garlic Butter

  • In a small bowl, whisk together all the ingredients listed under “Garlic Butter” and set aside.

Assemble

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F.
  • Transfer the pot roast filling into your chosen baking dish. For individual servings, divide the filling between six 6-ounce ramekins. Top each dish with the cheddar bay biscuit dough, spreading it evenly.
  • Place the baking dishes on a tray and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
  • Once out of the oven, immediately brush the tops with garlic butter. Serve warm and enjoy!

How to Make Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie (VIDEO)

1. Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables
Start by seasoning the chicken with garlic powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. Sear the chicken in a hot pan until it’s golden brown on both sides, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. In the same pan, sauté onions and potatoes until tender and caramelized.

2. Make the Marry Me Gravy
Deglaze the pan with white wine, letting it reduce slightly. Melt butter, then sprinkle in flour to create a roux with the sautéed vegetables. Slowly stir in the chicken broth, followed by the heavy cream, garlic, thyme, and oregano, creating a creamy, flavorful gravy. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, chicken, and finally, fresh spinach to complete the filling.

3. Make the Biscuit Topping
Mix together the biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.

4. Assemble and Bake
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Divide the filling into individual ramekins or transfer it to a large baking dish. Top with dollops of the cheddar bay biscuit dough. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, then brush them with garlic herb butter as soon as they come out of the oven.

5. Serve and Savor
Serve immediately while the pot pie is bubbling and the biscuits are still warm. Each bite combines savory chicken, creamy gravy, and a perfectly cheesy biscuit topping.

Tips for Success

  • Use Fresh Spinach: It wilts perfectly in the creamy gravy, adding a pop of color and nutrients.
  • Don’t Skip the Wine: The dry white wine adds a subtle depth to the gravy, balancing out the richness of the cream.
  • Shaggy Dough is Key: When mixing the biscuit dough, stop once it just comes together to ensure tender, fluffy biscuits.

Storing and Reheating

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the oven to maintain the crispness of the biscuit topping, or microwave for a quick and cozy meal. This pot pie also freezes well—just be sure to cover it tightly before freezing, and bake straight from the freezer when you’re ready to enjoy.


This Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie is the perfect dish to cozy up with on a cool evening. Its indulgent, rich flavors, paired with that irresistible Cheddar Bay Biscuit topping, make it a dinner that’ll have everyone coming back for more!

  • To the same pan, add some onions and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then, add that with the diced potatoes.
  • Allow the potatoes to cook for 4-5 minutes. Stir every 1-2 minutes.

Marry Me Gravy

  • Deglaze the pan with some white wine. I’m using Chardonnay but any dry white wine will do.
  • All the wine to cook out and the potatoes to absorb most of the liquid.
  • Now, add in butter. Once the butter has melted, sprinkle in the flour.
  • Stir to incorporate the sautéed onions and potatoes with the flour and butter.
  • Next, pour in the chicken broth and continue to stir.
  • As the gravy starts to thicken, add the chopped pieces of chicken and sun dried tomatoes. Stir to combine.
  • Follow that with heavy cream, garlic, thyme, oregano, salt, pepper and smoked paprika. Continue to stir.
  • Finally add freshly chopped spinach.
  • Give it a final mix, remove from and set aside.

Herb Butter Sauce

  • In a small bowl, mix together all ingredients listed under “Herb Butter Sauce” and set aside.

Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping

  • To a bowl add the dry biscuit mix, cheddar cheese and milk. Using a fork, mix together until the dough starts to form. Be care not to over mix here. You really just need to stir enough to get a shaggy dough.

Assemble

  • Pre-heat your oven to 425F.
  • Transfer the filling to the baking dish of your choice. I decided to divide the filling between 6-6oz ramekins. Top each ramekin with the cheddar bay biscuit dough.
  • Place on a baking tray, and bake until the biscuit topping is cooked through and golden brown, about 14-16 minutes.
  • As soon as they come out of the oven, brush on the herb garlic butter and serve. Enjoy!

  1. Sear the Seafood: Start by cooking the shrimp and langostino tails in olive oil with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Sauté until just cooked through, then set aside.
  2. Sauté the Veggies: In the same pan, sauté onions, bell peppers, and celery until they’re soft and fragrant.
  3. Make the Gravy: Lower the heat, add butter, then stir in flour to create a roux. Slowly whisk in chicken broth and heavy cream until smooth. Add garlic, thyme, tarragon, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper for layers of rich flavor. Gently fold the seafood back into the pan.
  4. Prepare the Biscuit Topping: Combine the Red Lobster biscuit mix, shredded cheddar cheese, and milk to form a shaggy dough. Don’t overmix to keep it tender and light.
  5. Assemble and Bake: Preheat the oven to 425°F. Transfer the seafood filling to ramekins or a baking dish. Top with the biscuit dough, then bake for 14-16 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Finish with Herb Butter Sauce: Brush the freshly baked biscuits with a garlic herb butter sauce for that extra savory touch.
