Pie is in oven. Cast iron pie pan. Stick of butter and cup of brown sugar, pie crust, Apple's with sugar, bourbon, cinnamon, corn starch. Top crust with egg wash. Test run for competition next month.
Will also be cooking pig and entering bbq sauce competition.
Maybe pictures tomorrow.

Please share the assembly instructions.
peel and slice 5 or 6 apples, I like a mix of Granny Smith, Breaburn?, and Fugi, toss with a mix of 1/2 cup sugar, teaspoon of cinnamon, teaspoon of corn starch. little Bourbon, set aside.
Melt a stick of butter in a cast iron pan, (yes I use a cast iron pie pan), then melt a cup of brown sugar in the butter, stir constantly. When melted, remove from heat, place bottom pie crust on top of melted brown sugar, apples, and top crust. Brush with whipped egg white.
Bake at 350 degrees for one hour. be sure to place cookie sheet under pie, some apple flavor caramel always bubbles out.
Cool completely before cutting.
Ice Cream optional.
plan to drain apples for next pie, add flour instead of corn starch and cut back on sugar a little.
Enjoy.

I like to cook the apples a bit before assembly into the pie. It gives you the opportunity to add more sugar, cinnamon, or other ingredients to taste.... usually turns out pretty well. :)
 
You need a design in the crust, like leaf or heart cut outs or something... Not that there's anything wrong plain ! :oops:
Will you be judged by wimmins? , they like cute and pretty.

What time is the eatin? I got about a 4 hr drive.

Eating at 1:00 pm tomorrow. Don't know who will be judging, I think two men and two women. Blind taste test, they won't see the whole pie.
I just picked up the pig and will start the fire around 8:30 / 9:00 tonight.
Grandson, about to turn 4, will be helping his Papa cook. BBQ sauce is already in van.
