Bring a large pot of water to a boil for the potatoes. Let this heat up while you cook the meat mixture.

In a large skillet, cook the onion, add garlic. Add beef and cook until browned. Drain off grease.

Add tomato sauce and vegetables. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring often.

Add Guinness, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Boil until the liquid has reduced by half and thickened, roughly 15 minutes.

Preheat grill, start the Traeger grill on smoke with lid open until fire is established (4 to 5 Minutes). Set the temperature to 350 degrees F and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 15 minutes

Add the potatoes to boiling water and cook for 15-20 minutes or until soft but not mushy. Drain and cool. Mash the potatoes and add butter, milk,and salt as needed.

Once mixture is done cooking and the potatoes are mashed, divide the meat mixture between the two dishes. Top with mashed potatoes then top with the cheese. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until golden brown. Serve hot and Enjoy!
