1. Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 350F degrees. Pat beef cubes dry with a paper towel and season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half the beef and cook until well browned all over, about 7 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer the beef to bowl or plate with the remaining uncooked beef. Note: you will not cook the remaining beef before placing in the pot pie. Cooking half the beef imparts some good flavor from braising but saves time not requiring all the beef to be browned before placing in the pie. It works, I promise.
2. Reduce heat to medium and add remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil to now-empty pot. Add mushrooms, onion, and carrots and cook until vegetables are lightly browned, about 5 minutes, scraping up any browned bits. Stir in tomato paste and garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
3. Stir in wine (or water) and cook until evaporated, about 2 minutes. Stir in flour until the vegetables are well coated and cook for 1 minute. Add broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire, and bay leaf, stirring until combined. Scrape any bits that have stuck to bottom of pan to incorporate into liquids. Add beef and bring to a simmer. Cover and transfer to oven. Cook until beef is tender, about 1 1/4 hours.
4. Remove filling from oven and taste the beef to make sure it's tender to your liking. If it tastes chewy, add 1/4 cup water, stir and return to oven for another 20-30 minutes. Once meat is tender, remove and then increase oven temperature to 400F degrees. If the meat mixture looks to need more "juice", then remove mixture from pot to a plate and add 1/4 to 1/2 cup water back to the Dutch oven and kind of tilt the pan to scrape off some of the crusty fond that's accumulated in the pot. This should create a thick meaty sauce to add into the meat mixture and thin it out a bit, plus it only adds to the flavor of the beef.

1. To prepare crust: Combine whole-wheat flour, all-purpose flour and salt in a food processor and pulse to mix. Pulse in butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Pulse in sour cream and oil. With the motor running, add ice water and process just until the dough comes together. (Add more water, a teaspoon at a time, if necessary.) Divide the dough in half, shape into 2 disks, wrap in plastic and refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
2. To prepare filling: Clean the food processor and fit with the shredding disc. Cut potato, carrots (or parsnips) and onion into pieces that will fit through the tube. With motor running, drop in the vegetables until they're all shredded.
3. Combine beef, pork, milk and the shredded vegetables in a high-sided skillet or Dutch oven. Cook over medium heat, mashing and stirring with a potato masher, until the meat is dry and all the liquid has evaporated (the masher helps you check for liquid), 40 to 50 minutes. If the bottom starts to brown or stick before the liquid has evaporated, reduce the heat and continue cooking and mashing until the liquid is gone. Stir in cranberries, allspice, salt and pepper.
4. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
