Cakes are fancy-ass, honey. Pie is home.

IDELLA JOHNSON, VETERAN PIE BAKER

While pie may be the great common denominator, many people find baking one more threatening than preparing any other dessert. And it’s making and rolling out the crust that gets the Anxiety Devil going.
But pies aren’t really difficult. The only way to do it, though, is to make a couple yourself, because you have to get the feel of the dough to know when it is right.
Every spring for the past several years, Crisco has sponsored a Great American Pie Celebration. Out of some 1,500 entries from all 50 states, judges select one finalist to represent each state. Then the winners all come together for a weekend of pie baking—a hot and heavy competition, and good fun.
