YUMMY!!! I made this pie after watching Alton Brown make it on TFN. It looked so pretty and tastey that I just had to try it for myself. I wasnt disappointed with it either. I was HUGE though and served my entire family of 9 with some left over. It was a tad bit runny to. SO, this mnorning I decided to make it again but I modified it a tinsy bit and this time (in my opinion anyway I made a perfect aple pie!

This is the "BEST" apple pie recipe "EVER", I don't like apple pie, BUT this was so "AWESOME" that I couldn't say no. I made it mainly for my mother's 70th birthday, she loves apple pie, but the entire family loved it. The crust was so delicious (I left it rest overnight, the filling out of this world, everything was perfect. I didn't find a 2" tart pan so I used my cheese-cake pan and worked very good too. It was worth the extra steps, TRY IT!!

This is some fine pie. But if you really want it to kill, try orange marmalade rather than apple jelly. Yum!

The pie crust was wonderful!! I used my Pampered Chef pie stone. My pie was soupy. Unfortunately my interenet was down and was not able to look at the reviews. i'll add extra tapioca flour next time. I'll definately make again.

Best apple pie we have ever made. Made this exactly as stated except used lard instead in the crust (with the butter. The apples had great texture, plenty of thicken liquid. Pie crust was hard to handle (due to the fat content, kept using a chilled sheet pan to firm up the fat as working it quickly soften it. Rolled out thin, it covers the tart pan as described in the show well (top and bottom. UPDATE: I have made this 3 times since, awesome each time.

What a disappointment! I spent so much money on the ingredients for this pie...the Apple Jack, 10" pan, pie bird, tapioca flour, and grains of paradise. I had to get most of it online. This apple pie wasn't any better than the basic recipe I've used for years. Beware that the glaze on the top crust burns quickly. I had to use a knife to get it off, so now the pie looks so messy. I usually think Alton's recipes are great, but NOT THIS ONE! I made it exactly as stated.

Really bugs me people asking questions that the answers are obvious! "What's the little birdie in the pie for?" Watch the episode people! Or even the video on this very website! jeesh!

With that said, the pie is amazing! Crust is incredible and the apples are the star of the show, as they should be! As far as having to go on a "scavenger hunt" to find some of the the ingredients? That's all part of the fun!

We made this for Thanksgiving and it was one of the best apple pies I have ever had. After eating this, I couldn't eat any other apple pies ever again.
