Back before we started this business, I was the Thanksgiving pie guy.  Whether it was eating with family or with friends, my job was the pies.  

I would make five or six pies.  Of course I would make pumpkin pies, and apple.  I would try to get a little exotic like a cream cheese pie in a chocolate crust with a cherry topping.  

I have to have a chocolate pie.  I'm partial to a chocolate pecan pie with its crunchy filling. 

 

But for sheer, smooth, decadence, nothing beats a French silk pie. (It can be made with white chocolate.)
