Ingredients:

3 pound rib roast
4 cups of water
2 1/2 cups of apple cider

Directions:
Boil or cook in a steamer, the rib roast in 4 cups water, until the meat is so tender it falls apart. Cut into bite-sized pieces and return to the broth and continue to simmer on the stove top.

Add the rest of the ingredients, stirring each in as you go. Continue to simmer and stir occasionally as the raisins and apples absorb the liquid.

Spoon the cooked and cooled mincemeat filling into an unbaked crust, use a sharp knife to make vents in the top crust, and bake at 425 degrees about 25 minutes.
