Rhubarb Pie on Pebbles

[MacKenzie]

The rhubarb in my garden is perfect for a pie right now so-

made the filling, sugar, flour, salt, egg and rhubarb.

Now for the crust, the bottom is easy-

Pour the filling in-

Now for the hard part, the lattice top. 

Add the edge protector-

Put it on the KK @ 425F for 50 - 60 mins.

Baked.

Slice removed and look at that juice.

 

A slice (if you can call it that) of warm rhubarb pie.

That does it I have to go out and get some pie. Looks great and bet it tastes better. I think after reading the forum for the past week or so I bet not too many KK owners use they're ovens anymore. I for one haven't used my oven since i moved into this house 27 years ago, and not because i use my grill. I have just been eating out every meal, pretty pathetic huh? but that is all about to change now that I have my BB32. I'm building an outdoor kitchen on my patio. Happy grilling everybody. And GOD bless AMERICA!!

@MacKenzie - now you've gone and done it!  Diet ruined!  Diet DEAD!  What a Greta pie.  I love ehibarb pie and that's one I could love for, oh, say 30 minutes, if that long.  That's all it would take for me to eat that whole pie and eat a gallons of vanilla bean ice cream!  Kudos to ya!

@Bruce Pearson - my Friend, I bought a high dollar convection oven when I moved into my new home about 2 years ago.  I haven't used it but a handful of times.  TheBeast, my BB 32, handles everything.  My KKs are the world's best convection ovens.  Bar none.  Be well and YES!  God bless America!

Look at that pie. What about some home made ice cream.

Great looking pie. Strangely enough I've never had a Rhubarb pie. Mrs skreef has eaten them her whole life. She says she's going to make one soon.

I haven't had rhubarb pie in years.  Yours looks fantastic!

@MacKenzie - great looking pie. Now that you know how to lattice pie crust, you know how to weave the bacon blanket for a fattie!

@Bruce Pearson - when I remodeled my kitchen about 8 years ago, I did not put in a conventional oven, as I rarely used the old one. The KK gets all the big stuff and small stuff works great in the counter-top convection oven (brick lined Cuisinart). 

[MacKenzie]

Thanks, everyone. I highly recommend rhubarb pie if you haven't tried it before. It is delicious.

As luck would have it, our first (off-brand) ceramic cooker arrived a dozen years ago, just as our indoor oven went on the fritz. Using extruded coconut charcoal, there was hardly a hint of smoke in this strawberry rhubarb pie.

My true childhood favorite is sour cherry pie (we had a tree), but strawberry rhubarb is a close second.

I totally agree about the sour cherry pie, come the end of July I hope to be posting a cherry pie. As a child I used to climb my grandmother's s. cherry trees to pick cherries for her to make pies and jam, but that was after I ate my fill. :)

As a boy growing up I remember my dear Mom making strawberry-rhubarb pie that was to die for.  She grew her own rhubarb in her garden.  How my Mom raised 5 kids, managed a house, drove us everywhere for sports, etc. I will never know.  We always had tasty treats after school like her pies, cobblers, cakes, cookies, I'll never know.  

@Syzygies - that's a very tasty looking pie on the KK.  Kudos to ya!

OMG, MacK! Rhubarb pie is my son's absolute favorite. He can't eat strawberries, but I make/purchase a rhubarb pie every year for his birthday. Just made one last month! Didn't try it on the KK, but now that I've seen your incredible pictures, I've gotta try it. Would you mind sharing the recipe for the ingredients you used? I've gotta send your pictures to him. He'll be salivating at work!!!

[MacKenzie]

Thanks, Geo.  This is my Mum's recipe and the same one that I use.

The filling:

4C rhubarb

1.5C white sugar

3T flour

1 egg

Pinch of salt

Mix all ingredients together and pour into a pastry shell. Cover with lattice and bake at 450F for 40 mins or until cooked, nicely browned.

* I used a lower temp so mine took almost 60 mins. to cook.

@MacKenzie - WOW!  That's so simple even I can follow that recipe! Thanks!    

[MacKenzie]

CC,  it's so simple I can remember it.   

[Geo]

Thanks so much for the recipe, MacK. Dan will be beside himself when he gets the pie. He might even share a slice with me. Will post pictures, but probably won't look as lovely as yours. You're the greatest!!!

[MacKenzie]

Geo, you are very welcome and I sure hope Dan loves it and I'm sure he will be thrilled since you are going to make it for him.

That's just insane MacK!   Rhonda made rhubarb crisp a couple weeks ago.  And now your wonderful looking rhubarb pie gets my mouth o'watering!

Grew up eating rhubarb pie...and also another midwest/upper midwest farm favorite:  Gooseberry.   On occasion my Mom would mix rhubarb and gooseberry together for a wonderfully different pie.
