Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.
  2. Season pork slices with salt, pepper, and rosemary, then place them on the grill rack.
  3. Grill the pork for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through and lightly charred.
  4. Remove pork from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
  5. Sauté sliced onions in a pan until soft and golden, then mix with the sliced pork.
  6. Roll out pie dough and cut into circles large enough to fit your pie tins or grill-safe molds.
  7. Brush the bottom of each dough circle lightly with olive oil to help it crisp on the grill.
  8. Place the dough circles on the grill over medium-low heat and cook for 2 minutes until slightly firm.
  9. Carefully flip the dough and fill each circle with the pork and onion mixture.
  10. Fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape and crimp the edges to seal.
  11. Brush the top of the pies with olive oil or egg wash for a golden finish.
  12. Return the pies to the grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes per side, rotating as needed, until the crust is golden brown and crisp.
  13. Remove from the grill and let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
