I made with instruction from my friend at his house Tuesday. Dick is an accomplished home cook.

I used ceramic pie weights - think dyna beads but larger  Cheesy

A crust ring to ensure a golden circlet of pastry, not a burnt one.

A digital frickin scale. No measuirng by eye. Ze weight must be precise. Dick is a retired engineer with Cherman ancestors.

I precooked the pie base with the ceramic weights for 15 minutes and then after removing the weights the base was cooked for a further 10 minutes.

Did you happen to add some RUM elixir mixed in?

It tastes even better that way I think.  laugh

The talking of pecan pies brings back good memories.  When I was at college back in the 60's, there was a small store down the road that made pecan pies.  My roommate and I would walk down to the store around 10:00 at night to get a pie and eat it on the way home.   This would happen several times a week.    I haven't had one as good as those since then.
