I presume you would also mince or finely chop the meat?  The lemon
juice sounds like a good idea.

I thought that the anniversary of that invasion would have come some
months after those foreign devils left their homeland.  What about
Eric the Red, some years ealier, although he didn't have such an
impact?   1492 was considered a bad year for religious freedom, as
that was when the Inquisition began the purges of Jews and Muslims
under the "Catholic Kings", Ferdinand and Isabella, in Spain.

(My Dublin-born SIL claims that an Irish monk beat Eric to that
country on the other side of the Atlantic.)

  own a very successful "Old Country Pub" in Calgary, Alberta.  Their
  Shepherd's Pie is justly famous. Vincent Lee, kitchen manager at the
  Unicorn says the recipe came directly from Ireland via the Irish
  Rovers more than 10 years ago.
