I LOVE rhubarb and am always looking for new ways to use it. This is a pretty darn good pie, but as usual, after trying it, I tweeked it a little for our tastes. Instead of lemon, I used orange juice and zest. Rhubarb and oranges just seem to really like each other. I used my own "never fail" pie crust, but this one is similar. I also threw in a touch of fiori di sicilia (from KAF and sent the flavor up a whole extra notch. The tapioca and flour are a great combo that I may try in other extra juicy pies. This is definitely worth making!! Thanks!!

I have made this pie for my husband many times, usually lasts about 2 days. Great recipe, just substituted with half brown sugar and a teeny bit of mace and apple pie spices. Love it!

This was by far the best strawberry rhubarb pie I've ever made/had. The flavors were perfect together. I did omit the top pie crust and make my own crumb topping but the filling is a must try!

My first pie ever and it was delicious cause of this recipe! Unfortunately, I substituted the instant tapioca for 6 tbs of cornstarch since I couldnt find it. Its nicely balanced with the tart and sweet so that its not too tart. My boyfriend loved it! Next time I will definitely make it with the tapioca...

Love this pie! After reading all reviews, I reduced the sugar to a little over 1 cup. I also used the 2 tbsp of minute tapioca plus 2 large tbsp of cornstarch to help the filling thicken . . . worked perfectly. One reviewer mentioned using "tapioca pudding" which is NOT "minute tapioca", which you can find on the baking aisle of any grocery store. I found 3 tbsp of butter to be too much and used about 1 tbsp instead. The large granule sugar is a sugar usually found in the cake decorating section. I used "Demerara sugar" which I found at Sur la Table . . . works great. I definitely recommend letting this pie "set-up" for a few hours after baking . . . overnight is even better. Excellent flavor. The key is using fresh rhubarb stalks and fresh, RIPE strawberries. Even in a Pillsbury roll-out crust, this pie is a winner.
