With Fathers Day coming up this weekend in Australia, I asked the Skinnymixers Community what they would like to see for a special Fathers Day Thermomix recipe… So many people said “something with beer” and quite a few people suggested a Beef & Guinness Pie.
I went with doing a pie filling, because that gives people the flexibility of putting the filling into pie pastry, topping with puff pastry or using my rustic mash like I did and bake in the oven for 20 on 200. This was adored by my Dad and Michael, and I hope the rest of the awesome Dads out there love it! Love Nik xx

Author: skinnymixer's
Recipe type: Dinner
Cuisine: Irish
Serves: 8
Ingredients
- 3 medium brown onions, peeled, quatered
- 3 garlic cloves, peeled
- 20 g | 0.7 oz olive oil
- 700 g | 24.7 oz gravy beef, diced small (like 1.5-2cm cubes)
- 200 g | 7 oz Guinness
- 200 g | 7 oz liquid beef stock (or 200 g or 7 oz water + ½ Tbsp beef stock concentrate)
- 30 g | 1 oz tomato paste
- 20 g | 0.7 oz worcestershire sauce
- ½ - 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Put onion and garlic into mixer bowl, chop for 3 sec/speed 9/MC on. Scrape bowl down.
- Add oil and cook for 5 min/100°C or 212°F/speed 1/MC off.
- Add remaining ingredients and cook for 40 min/steaming temperature/slowest speed/MC off. Put the simmering basket over the hole to avoid making a mess of your kitchen. You may need a little more time depending on your thermal cooker - because beef tends to have different water content levels, watch this recipe closely towards the end to avoid the meat disintegrating or drying out.
- Note: if your pie filling is too watery, remove your meat now and cook the liquid down for a further 5-10 min/steaming temperature/speed 1/MC off or until reduced.
- Note: let the dish sit for 10-20 mins after baking in the oven for the mixture to thicken and settle.

Could you make this with mince??
The mash recipe doesn’t seem to be here either…
It’s just a serving suggestion. Try the rustic mash on the Shepard’s pie
Hi! I’m looking forward to making this for my family tonight.
On what oven temperature and for how long?
I can’t see it in the recipe.
Thanks very much!
Yum, yum,yum!!
Delicious. I added finely chopped celery & carrots. Served with cauliflower/sweet potato mash mix
What is the stemming string for cooking
The best pie filling I have made with the Thermomix. Filling was so delicious and so much flavour. Thanks Nik for sharing your recipes – you inspire people to cook great wholesome meals.
This tasted just like a Guinness Pie Filling should. So easy to make and I just let it cool and made them into pies with puff pastry. Yummy
Delicious! It was a hit with the whole family. Will make a bigger batch next time in the slow cooker and freeze some for hubby to take for work.
My husband says this was bloody beautiful! We substituted red wine for the Guiness. Thank you Nik.
Absolutely phenomenal!!!! This will be a regular in our house for sure. Love it, thanks Nik!!!
Thank you for making the most delicious, easy and affordable recipes for me to make and my family to enjoy. This pie filling is no exception having made it twice (one with pastry and another using cauli mash) and everyone enjoyed it. I’ll definitely be making this again and will happily promote it to my page followers 😊
Used red wine instead of Guiness. Absolutely sensational, thank you!
And halved the onion.
Nik you’re amazing!! I made this for my husband and I for dinner and we both absolutely loved it. So flavoursome. I cooked it for 50 mins instead of 40 and placed it in the oven in ramikins with puff pastry tops for about 15 mins. Result = perfect pie. Definitely a dish I will absolutely cook again. Thank you x
With the world most picky family i was so excited that EVERYONE loved this filling.
Fed 8 people and not a single complaint.
Simply made them into pies and they were devine.
Thanks Nik
Oh my goodness. Another amazing meal. This will soon be a regular in our house no doubt.
Has any one done this in the slow cooker ?? Double batch??
Thanks
So good! Will be making it again… Very very soon! I ate so much before it eventually made it into the pastry.
Another delicious recipe! I put the filling into pie pastry and served with a side of your silky sweet potato mash – yum! Making it again tonight for my in-laws. Thanks Nik!
Thank you so much for another delicious recipe!!! this Was devoured in minutes last night. Even miss 2, scoffed the meat down. Thank you nikalene!
This is delicious! Another quick, easy & flavoursome recipe. Thanks Nik 🙂
Another super easy super tasty recipe.
YUMMO!!!! Made this and served the filling over mashed potato that i put cooked diced bacon through!! AMAZING.
Will try in a pie next time too.
What a versatile recipe! I had some diced beef I had to use, subbed beef stock for chicken and Guinness for Becks beer cos that’s what I had … Then I’m cooking with 11 mins to go it was a little tough (obviously bad cut of meat) so I blitzed it for 2 secs and it tastes amazing .. Can’t tell it’s tough cos it’s likeshredded beef. Thanks Nik
Ps it may not make it to tomorrow night for the pies cos Mr 14 thinks it tastes yum and keeps “tryin go spoons full of it
Beautiful filling turned it into a pie. This will be a regular here so easy to make the popped it on before doing the school pick up winner with minimal steps. Another awesome recipe
Winner, winner – there’s grog in my dinner 😀 😀
And it tasted fantastic too…..
OMG! Hubby just made this for dinner and it has been demolished! I could smell it cooking 100’s of metres away while when walking home through the bush with my puppy.
Definitely going to be a favorite in this house! With 2 and 3 year old girls asking for 2nds and 3rds!
I made this for Father’s Day and it was super easy but loaded with flavour, will be cooking this frequently. We didn’t eat it as a pie, they were too impatient for that, just mash and vegetables, still delicious. Husband, who doesn’t like new tastes, had 2nds and wants it again! Great recipe. Thank you Nik
We made two batches, the first for Father’s Day Lunch. The second we made into pies in the pie maker and popped into the freezer for anytime snacks. This recipe is so easy to make and the flavours beautiful. Thank you Nik for another wonderful recipe.
Hi Tracey. I have just bought a pie maker and plan to make this tonight. What pastry did you put on the top and bottom? Thank-you. Xx
We made this for Fathers Day dinner and it was delicious! Cooked in the Bellini Supercook – it needed an extra 10mins to be done and used the blunt blade. Hubby is on LCHF so we served as is with some steam veg instead of making it into a pie – so good! This will be our new go-to pie filling 🙂 thanks Nik for another winner!
Substituted guiness for beer hubby cant stand guiness, he loved it, said he might try it with guiness next time. Another winner.
I have never cooked with Guiness before,
This recipe was easy, tasty, tender!
Worked well with puff pastry…
Thank Nik
Amazing!!! Hubby and 4 kids all gave it a thumbs up! Thanks Nik xx
This isn’t something I’d go for normally but hubby was keen. Well it was delicious and will be made again I’m sure!! Thanks this is tasty!!
This was absolutely amazing. Hubby and I loved it.
Another fantastic dish Nik…whole family loved it, especially the dad of the household😊
Thank you for all you do…
Could you please tell me , what the slowest speed is. is it reverse? I am just wondering if it will chop the meat up too much? sorry I am a newbie, just checking. thanks
On the TM31 it’s the spoon symbol…not sure with new one.
Do u think I could leave the Guinness out?
You can use red wine or just use extra beef stock
Hi
Excuse ignorance 🙂 do we need to cook on reverse? Or doesn’t the meat break down as it’s cooked on slowest speed?
Thanks Nik so much for an amazing sounding pie 🙂
you dont need to use reverse 🙂
Perfect flavoursome beef filling, absolutely nailed it!
I made this today for lunch and was planning on having the leftovers for tea! I had to make another batch for dinner because hubby and the 2 kids demolished it at lunchtime. I asked them what they wanted for dinner and they said ‘the same as what we had for lunch please’. Nik, you have nailed it again!!
Yum, can’t wait to make this for Sunday night tea, love your recipes, thank you 🙂
We just returned from a trip to Ireland , and this will be perfect for me to make whilst having another pint!
Woohoo! I’m teaching my Irish other half how to use the “Termi” – this will definately be a motivating recipe for him! Thanks Nik!
My Dad isn’t around for Father’s Day, but my Irish mother is going to love this 😀 thanks again Nik!
