Add 1lb ground pork into a mixing bowl. Add salt, sage, allspice , mace and cooled onion/garlic mixture. Mix thoroughly. Slowly add the 1/4 cup of chicken broth a few tablespoons at a time until incorporated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Place dough in the bottom of each pie mold, fill each mold 1/2 of pork mixture . Cover with pie crust. Crimp and seal the edges. Bake at 425 degree for for 20 minutes then lower heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 50 minutes. When you lower the heat, this is when you will want to brush with egg wash. (Egg Wash: one whole egg and 2 tsp of milk beaten with a fork)
**You can make these without the pie molds. Just encase the meat mixture in your pie dough and bake on a cookie sheet.
Pie Crust: ( This is my favorite pie crust recipe, I omit the sugar when making savory pies)
