Yeah, give me some chocolate cream...mmmmm lick

Why is there no "All of the above" option?

Fruit pie.

There were only 10 options maximum on DL polls, had to omit some...

Strawberry-rhubarb is my favorite.

Sour-cherry pie.

The Christmas Moose likes Moose Pie, but I don't think he's tried any other kind of pie.

Peanutbutter pie!

Why are you eating so many pies fatties?

R29 & R38 stated mine, COCONUT CREAM. But it's weird (like me) because I detest coconut.

Pizza -- what? It's a pie ain't it?

Peach

Chocolate cream pie

Sugar pie

Boston cream pie

Toll House pie

A local restaurant makes what they call a "Caramel Pie", which is really just dulce de leche in a pie crust topped with whipped cream. It is my absolute favorite.

Boston Cream Pie is CAKE, dammit!

I can't believe that I'm the only one that likes sweet potato pie. Oh wait...

R31, there are a couple of versions, but the best is the furr's version.

SHEPARD'S PIE!

pie pie pie

pizza. but only good pizza.

Dolly Madison.

Eat. My. Shit.

Caribbean Room's famous Mile High Pie at the Pontchartrain Hotel in New Orleans:

Shithole pie AKA Mussy.

No sweet potato???

Sweety-pie and cutey-pie

Essentially, yes, r55

Sweet vagina pie

For r55:

R57, I know. These people are dreadful.

Humble!

French silk pie is not my favourite but is requested by most if not all family members for family gatherings.

R39 = French Silk Pie

Smore's pie: graham cracker crust, chocolate pie filling, topped with marshmallow fluff that's been under a broiler until it gets a nice golden brown color.

PIE, PIE, PIE!!!!

Apricot pie!

Banoffee pie, cunts!

Pecan, followed by coconut or sweet potato.

I just bought Patty's sweet potato pie at Walmart. Crack.

Sweet Potato Pie is gross. Probably the only pie I *don't* like.

Anybody have a good cherry pie recipe? I'm confused about how to make the filling.

R68, you're lucky. Sugar is deadly.

My favorite pie is peanut butter cream pie. But man, it's hard not to fantasize about apple pies and pumpkin pies.

R76, you just buy a can of cherry pie filling. You can't beat it.

R76, my cherry pie won 1st place in an Amish baking contest. This is how I make the filling. It's pretty tart with an intense cherry flavor.

1 lb frozen montmorency or similar cherries (fresh/pitted if you can get them) 1/2 cup sugar 1 oz tart cherry juice concentrate couple dashes salt 3 Tbsp quick-cooking tapioca

[quote]Completely missing a sweet tooth.

Quit drinking.

dick in pie

crust: all butter, all shortening, lard, a mix of 2, some other fat?

crust can be a mix of lard and butter for sweet. all lard for savory is my preference. a spoonful of vinegar in the water helps tenderize the dough and keep it from browning too quickly. i'm not a fan of hydrogenated shortening although i've used palm oil shortening successfully.

Key lime with a homemade graham cracker crust. I don't like any other kind.

1/3 each of lard, butter and shortening makes the best crust. If you need it right.

Anyone who has a favorite pie is a limited human being.

See R84 for an example. And you can bet she's never actually baked one, or made her own graham crackers for the crust, or squeezed the limes. There's a lesson there for such specific tastes.

It's call "The Gerber Generations."

Other...Key Lime

R45, are you talking about Beatrix in Chicago? Their Caramel Pie is amazing. I make a great Derby Pie - chocolate, pecans, and bourbon.

R85, "she" certainly has made a key lime from scratch, with squeezing those hard little fuckers and making her own graham crust.

I find most pies too sweet. I like the sharp tangy counterpoint of a key lime pie. Is that okay with you, hon?

Moon pie.......but only with an RC cola.....

Lemon Meringue, Banana Cream, Cherry cream, and Key Lime (REAL Key lime, super tart, yellow not green).

Key Lime Pie tastes better made with regular (Persian) limes. Not to mention they're easier to juice.

The bottled key lime juice, like Nellie & Joe's, makes the best key lime pie. Just add some lime zest and you're good to go.

If you can find Nesselrode is amazing

Cherry Cream pie

My favorite pie growing up was my mom's Raspberry Cream Cheese pie.

Key Lime

Fur pie

Lemon Meringue

Pie in the sky!

A tie between Apple and Coconut Custard

Steak & Kidney or Mushroom & Chicken

Banofee Pie.

I also like a nice stargazy pie, if I can find it...

R101, you are a vile, disgusting person and I'm glad I don't know you. Yyyyeeeeccchhhhh!!!!!

I have a crust question: On The Great British Baking Show/Bake-Off, they often refer to something called a "hot water crust." I consider myself reasonably knowledgeable about food and baking, but have never heard of such a thing in the US. What exactly is it?

There's a pie place near me that makes BanBerry Pie -- It's a banana cream pie with strawberries.

OMG do try a real nesselrode pie with chestnuts

So few votes for classic strawberry pie! Tart and sweet with juicy strawberries....wish I had some now.

Never heard of sugar pie before and just looked up a recipe - wow! Looks nice!

A lot of people around here prefer banana cream pie.

Chess Pie

Lemon pie

I've just lost 20 lbs on a carb-free regimen and between this thread and the "bread" thread I'm losing my mind.

There's an unseen piece of cut footage from THE KARATE KID where Ralph Macchio smears blueberry pie all over Billy Zabka's gorgeous twink chest (in front of La Shue, no less) as retaliation for a cruel school prank.

Sadly, only a still survives of what would have been a moment that many a DLer would have loved to witness.

^^I stand happily corrected. There is existing tape of THE KARATE KID that shows the blueberry scene, albeit grainy rehearsal footage (found as part of an entire rehearsal shoot of the movie on John Advilsen's YT channel, highly-recommended viewing for movie fans).

It's a great little scene but obviously unnecessary to the final cut. The actors forgo a real blueberry pie and just use a stack of binders as a stand-in prop, but you get the idea. Daniel gets so enraged he just goes to tackle Johnny Lawrence (who is twice his size) without hesitation. In this rehearsal clip Macchio & Zabka are wearing different and fewer clothes than the still I posted, guess it was a long hot day of shooting.

Really? Not one person mentioned blackberry pie? Oh well...

Blueberry is better, r115.

Blackberry pie is far superior to blueberry!

Well, good, sweetheart. Go eat a blackberry pie.

Key Lime Pie, hands down.

Cherry pie with a lattice crust. Of course, cherry pie always makes me think of this.

I like my pie to be savory.

R105, Allrecipes has thousands of recipes with pictures and an easy search index.

They also have many cherry pie recipes.

R103, Sardine pie with bacon?

I've got some extra pie crusts; I think I'm gonna try to make an apricot pie. We used to have an apricot tree in our yard when I was a kid, and my mom would make apricot pies, cobblers, etc. all summer.

Fur pie

If you live in LA, the cherry pie at Sweet Lady Jane is wonderful! Their blueberry pie is good too.

Apple pie! I can only have a slice on Christmas and Thanksgiving. Yum!

This place is awesome! Too bad I live five hours away. I love their crumb cherry pie!

Key Lime, but homemade with fresh limes and whipped cream. Also bourbon pecan with a chocolate crust is nice, served hot.

Savory, steak and kidney with a pint of Guinness.

Elderberry pie

No lemon meringue pie?

There's a new pie shop opened about a mile from me. Stopped in last week for some. Sorta disappointing. Very skillful pie maker, but her ingredient choices were peculiar. The owner uses a butter-flavored shortening that has an artificial taste that I recognize as a butter/dairy "natural" (it should be said, synthesized from natural chemicals) flavoring that is popping up in several foodstuffs lately. She should go with an unflavored shortening. I got cherry pie, and she made it with Bing cherries - who the hell makes cherry pie with Bing cherries?

sweet potato pie

Quebec Sugar Pie

R134, That's a very rich pie.

Tarte au sucre is pie for poors who can't afford pecans, aka "chess pie" in the southern U.S.

coconut cream pie

How about some Mississippi mud pie ?

Sometimes I use premade cherry pie filling. But not that crap they sell at the regular supermarket. This stuff is very good

[quote]I got cherry pie, and she made it with Bing cherries - who the hell makes cherry pie with Bing cherries?

I've always wished people would make pies using Bing cherries. What's wrong with it?

My grandmother used to make fried peach hand pies for me every summer. They were unbelievably good.

They're a Southern delicacy. I don't think they make them up North.

Coconut cream pie for the win

Chocolate meringue

R141: Whenever someone claims some dish originated in the South it's not difficult to find otherwise. The Amish make them in Ohio. Hostess and various other commercial bakeries have been making bastardized versions for decades. The Cornish made a savory version which are well known in the mining regions of norther Michigan. And this is before I consulted with Google.

R140, Bing cherries are much more bland than "pie cherries" such as Montmorency. They lack tartness and don't have that intense cherry flavor. They're better for eating fresh. Bings are much easier to come by here than pie cherries; but for a pie specialty bakery, it would not be difficult to buy frozen Michigan or Pacific Northwest cherries.

I don't think I've ever seen Montmorency cherries in a store. Not even at whole foods.

They have odd limited distribution, R146. You can get them in the midwest and the mid-south and in the Great Lakes area. I never see them in the southwest or west. They (or similar varieties) are available in jars in international markets that have German, central and eastern european food.

Here's a place I've bought pie cherries from in the past.

Thank you, r148.

All the pies listed are good OP if they are well made, grocery store pies are barely adequate at best and believe it or not I found a cherry pie made from dark, sweet cherries--horrible. It's hard to find fresh tart red cherries in stores partly because their shelf life is short. It is also impossible to find good black raspberries anywhere, even in areas where they are grown. And many people who don't know any better mistakenly think black raspberries are the same as blackberries, which also make a good pie. My grandmother used to make huckleberry pie which I think is similar to blueberries but not quite the same. Lemon sponge pie is also good if made well--another Amish thing. The Amish are also famous for raisin pie.

Strawberry-Rhubarb. It's tangy and sweet.

Montmorency cherries used to be more popular--decades ago. They have limited distribution because they're grown in the Great Lakes region and they're not widely popular enough to be grown some place like Chile to create a bigger supply. It's kindof like not finding Michigan blueberries in season unless youre close to Migigan. Instead you get crap from eleswhere.

I like boysenberry pie, but the fruit is almost impossible to find. And there's a very short growing season. Same with loganberries and olallieberries.

Lemon meringue pie

R152, I used to buy some generic brand, I think it was called "Best Value," in Oklahoma. They sold frozen Montmorency cherries that were grown in Poland. I wonder if they're still available? I can't find the brand online, maybe because the name is so generic it messes with search engines.

Actually it is Best Choice brand, a contract manufacturer in KC MO. They have a store finder on their website.

I just bought four pounds of apricots (on sale for 99 cents/lb.) and am gonna make that pie tomorrow!

It would be easier to list the pies I don't like!

I used to hate Sweet Potato pie, but a friend's mother made one of the best I ever had - creamy but light.

Pecan pie also used to leave me cold - too rich,too sugary - but I have had some wonderful ones.

Can't really do the sugar pie, which I believe is also called shoofly pie in the south; and peanut butter pie is also something I avoid. Just too much sweetness. But all the classic fruit and citrus pies are wonderful.

Love savory pies too - veal and leek, steak and kidney, quiches...

My grandmother used to serve a mint chocolate chip ice cream pie in a crust made of Famous Chocolate Wafers with strawberry compote spooned over each slice. Perhaps not a true pie per se but delicious and very impressive to see.

Thanks, r128. A friend is ordering two pies as we speak.

After making too many pie crusts to count, I've come to the conclusion that making your own isn't worth the trouble. The Wholly Wholesome frozen variety tastes almost as good and you don't have to waste an hour preparing it. It cuts your pie-making prep time in half.

Coconut pie with rum sauce = Heaven

R159 let me know how they like them please. I’m tempted to order one myself. Thanks.

[quote] The Cornish made a savory version which are well-known in the mining regions of norther Michigan.

...which was and still is called a 'pasty' (pron. PAHSS-tea) in Cornwall, R144.

Why do you cunts hate peach pie so much?

Who hates peach pie?

Be-bop-a-ree-bop Rhubarb Pie

Good to know, R160. I've always been terrible at rolling out pie crust, and now, my kitchen is too small. I've been making mainly crustless quiches, pie-wise, but it's not quite the same. I'll try Wholly Wholesome.

On a New England cruise last October we had wild blueberry pie in Maine. It was a revelation—like I was having blueberries for the first time.

Recipe:

Crust- Use recipe of your choice

Filling:

1 cup granulated sugar

1 cup confectioners sugar

1 egg

1/4 cup brown sugar

4 squares of a very good ( Valrohna or Guittard) Baking Chocolate

3 pounds of Moosecock

Bake at 325 degrees until gold and bubbly

It is a great recipe if you live in Maine. My gram and I start moose hunting and it takes us a good 2-3 months to hunt down the moose.

This is Mee-Maws Maine Moosecock Pie.

Thank me later, bitches!

What is moosecock?

Banana Cream Pie, obviously.

Big Lots occasionally stocks cherry and berry pie filling made in Eastern Europe. Not that sweet and almost no additives. They also don't use HFC or artificial sugar. A spoonful makes morning oatmeal edible.

marionberry

or key lime.

really, it depends on mood/season.

Cherry pie all the way.

Black Bottom.

If you're not baking but want to buy, buy American pie

Lemon Meringue. No question.

Doodie bubble

Chocolate peanut butter, but only if it's made right.

Chicken pot pie

Homemade Meyers Lemon Meringue or Key Lime

Lemon pie is the best pie.
