Pies for School and some weekend munching...

So this weekend I tried a Buttermilk pie so I could donate it to the school my daughter attends.  It was wonderful.  We ate it in one day.  Here’s the recipe.  No pictures unless my wife still has the one on her phone but it looked classically southern and tasted wonderful!

Buttermilk Pie

Refrigerated Ingredients
3 Eggs

Baking & Spices
1/4 cup All-purpose flour
1 1/2 cup Sugar
1/2 tsp Vanilla

Bread & Baked Goods
1 Pie crust, homemade or store bought

Dairy
8 tbsp Butter
1/2 cup Buttermilk

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Roll out pie crust in 9 inch, I used a frozen deep dish and it was great.

Whisk together sugar, flour, butter, buttermilk, eggs and vanilla until well combined.

Pour into pie crust and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. (The center will jiggle slightly but will set. Remove and allow to cool completely before serving.)

In addition I think I finally have my no-bone country ribs perfected.  I use a Famous Dave’s rub on them, about 2 to 3 minutes on direct heat, turning once.  Then move to the side and baste with sauce.  Let them cook for about 8 to 12 minutes (this really depends on the density of the pork and how hot your grill/smoker is.)

I added some hickory to the coals and it gave it just a sweet smoky flavor.

My sauce is the same I have mentioned in other posts, whatever base BBQ sauce you like, add some sriracha and honey and away you go.  I will be working on some new sauce soon that I want to make with a base of apple butter maybe.


May try some chicken this weekend again with some hickory smoke.  I will be smoking a breast for Thanksgiving for sure.  Stay tuned for those pictures.  This was last years and it was wonderful!
