In bowl, prepare filling by combining potatoes, carrots, onion, ground chuck, suet, salt and pepper and sugar.
Divide pastry into 8 portions. Keep covered. On lightly floured surface, roll out balls to circle 1/8 inch thick & 8 to 10 inches in diameter.
Place 1-1/2 t of butter on pastry. Pack with filling on half of circle. With pastry brush & water, dampen edge of filled dough. Fold half over other half to make half-moon shape, seal and flute edges. Slide onto cookie sheet with parchment paper. Repeat with remaining dough ball to make 8 pasties.
