All answers are valid, except pecan. Fuck pecan pie, it’s gross.

It’s hard to pick just one, but Cherry Cream Cheese just edges into the top spot for me.

Second is sweet potato.

    pecan pie is gross

    I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt and assuming you’ve only had access to poorly made pecan pie.

    To your question, I prefer savory pies like chicken pot pie or cottage pie.

    I know some don’t think that pizza qualifies as pie, but surely Chicago deep dish must?

    Dessert pie-wise, cherry is always my go to.

    I’d love to try making a chocolate cherry pie sometime.

    Pecan pie is lovely, you just haven’t grown in all your taste buds yet. It is not the best, but a good pecan pie is very good.

    Key lime is a strong contender, as I think is strawberry rhubarb, but for me one pie reigns supreme. Nothing beats a good buttermilk pie.

        You might also just not like it. I was just talking a little shit. There are a lot of bad examples out there though. Store bought is never the best, it has to be homemade. It is not a pie I have mastered the art of making, yet, myself. I have had a good one though and it was worth the calories.

    I like puff pastries filled with ragout. Vol au vent or bouche de la reine.

    I don’t know if that counts as pie, but if whatever they do in yorkshire counts as pudding, that’s my pie

    Strawberry rhubarb with mostly rhubarb. Two crusts, nine of that crumble garbage and a big lump of vanilla ice cream on top.

    Steak, bacon and cheese is my current pie of choice. The same bakery where I buy those also has a decent steak and jalapeno pie. And the humble steak and cheese pie is always acceptable, if made well.
