I did a quick search and came up with about 5 meat and turnip
dishes. None of them involved a pie crust, and none of them involved
beef. They all looked like stews or soups, and used duck, pork, or
fish.
I too am unimpressed with the quality of the articles in the new TI.
I wouldn't expect a change though, given that we are not the target
audience - there are too few of us "geeks" (no offense meant to any
here) and they want to sell more copies than that.
