My grandmother who moved here from Italy when she was 9 would go to the local bakery in Rhode Island and buy a Canadian Pork Pie remove the filling and use it to stuff her ravioli or cannelloni. This is the perfect stuffing for both...and I am a very tough critic. This tastes right from the best Italian restaurant you have ever been to...Thank you Alex for providing for me a part of my Grandmother that I would have not been able to pass down as I don't live in Rhode Island and I am sure the bakery has long since closed.

I found it to be tasty but dry. The dryness was probably because the 85% lean ground pork used. I guess I should have used a fattier ground pork or added some of the pan drippings to the pie. I also think he recipe could have benefitted from 8 oz of mushrooms. It's a very rich and nourishing pie, a less lean ground pork and mushrooms would make this a 4 or even 5!
