Close, but oh so wrong

Very delicious but very sweet. Unfortunately I once ate an entire pecan pie, got sick, and now cannot stomach it. That was over a decade ago...

I really want to make a pecan pie but I can't find pecans where I live and they're also expensive as fuck

>>14198359
how can other pies even compete?

>>14198359
Pecan pies are based and I love them but often I feel like people fuck them up by adding to much syrup and not enough pecans. The pecans should be left whole and should basically take up the entire interior of the crust besides some of the gelatinous syrup filling in the crevices. Your pic looks like a good one as you can see even in the bottom layer there is plenty of whole pecans. Unlike the picture in this post >>14198377 which has far to little pecans and it looks like over half the interior is pure gelatinous syrup. Not picking on you personally at all just stating my opinion on what makes a good/bad pecan pie and both examples just happened to be posted. I’m going to throw in a wild card here and say that pecan pie gets some real stiff competition from the strawberry rhubarb pie as well.

>>14198440
I disagree. I've never had a pecan pie that was imbalanced. Even a thin layer of pecans can do the job

>>14198450
That’s ok I understand, it’s just my preference. Let’s all bask in the glory of that which is the pecan pie.

>>14198359
it's roughly 500 calories a slice too

>>14198365
Fruits never belong in pie, as weird as it is to say. Fruity desserts never tasted good, I'd rather just eat the fruit fresh.
Even chocolate is ruined by fresh fruit. Choco-covered strawberries are okay once in a while.

Go take your fucking autism meds, they're under the kitchen sink

Brehs... How is "pecan" pronounced?

what do you think about chocolate pecan pies?

>>14198440
Agreed. People skimp on the pecans and instead use sugar glop

>>14198544
pea-kon or pea-can? Which do you say?

>>14198544
PECK-un

>>14198544
Puh-KAHN

>>14198440
based pecan pie bro sharing his opinion while also not discrediting the opinions of others

>>14198544
PEE-can

>>14198590
What fucking fresh hell?

>>14198359
Best one I had was hazelnut pie, but that's rare. On the flipside, pecan pie is easy as hell to find here, so that's what I tend to go with.

>>14198609
>>14198615
Both of these are interchangeable I feel like but I personally find myself using pee-can the most often but Puh-Kahn is also just as popular of a pronunciation if not more popular I’m sure in some states. If you look at the word I feel like it shoulda actually be pronounced peh-can but I’ve never heard anyone say it like that and it sounds completely wrong lol.

>>14198615
>>14198609
I’ve also heard it pronounced pee-kahn but it’s not the most common pronunciation in my experience.

>>14198359
sugar pies are the worst form of pie, fruit pies are so much better

peach pie best pie

>>14198544
say eeeh-aaaw like a donkey but add a p at the beginning

>>14198519
True

>>14198359
I dunno if that's true. But anything better is going to be stupendous as pecan pie is pretty damn great.

>>14198519
Banana cream pie is fantastic.

I don't understand pecan pie bros - It's corn syrup with whole nuts on top, why is the southern US so big on this

>>14200325
Pecan pie is a Pennsylvania thing, it's not even popular in the South.

I could build a religion around that picture

>>14198359
Agreed.

>>14198359
depends on my mood desu but generally speaking I agree with you.

>>14198440
this. I don't want sugar gelatin pie, I want PECAN pie. ideally, they're caramelized and crunchy.

>>14198359
Is that pecan-apple or pecan-pumpkin? can't quite tell.

>>14198922
Honestly bro, at a certain level of cooking proficiency, all pies are fucking excellent when served warm. We're nitpicking at this point.

>>14198359
Moot must be fucking up the images again, I think you meant to post this.

>posts a pie with low quality gravy
reminder that ms macs is the only australian pie company that still uses good quality ingredients.
Almost all the other companies use absolutely nigger quality slop filling now. Wouldn't feed them to my dog.
