Amazing Pie Championship : Food Network Challenge : Food Network
I'm not sure how much footage of my baking time ended up in the final cut, but I won the apple division and am standing next to the person who won best of show...you'll at least see me hugging her - LOL!
Anyhow, tune in - should be a great show. The four chefs they followed are a lot of fun; you'll get a kick out of watching them.
Enjoy!

How exciting!
I won a pie contest this year....that was fun. Made a strawberry/rhubarb/orange pie with a lattice top.
First time I ever entered anything like it and was very surprised. I was up against many professional pie makers as well.
Funny thing is, it was only the third pie I ever made. Life is full of surprises.
I'll be watching for you!!!
Congratulations!

I actually really like these pie championships! I need to get better at making pies, not something that I do a lot of. With an exception of coconut cream, I rarely make pies.

Thanks to everyone who tuned in!! If you missed the show on Sunday, it airs again Wednesday, Sept. 16th at 7 p.m. I received a little bit of air time, which was exciting to watch.
BerryBaby - congratulations, that's so neat!!! Can you share the recipe with us? I'd love to try it. I've never cooked with rhubarb.

I caught almost all of it on Sunday. Just missed the first 10 minutes. I thought the cherry pie lady was a wee bit "snarky" in some of her comments about the other people and their pies. I was glad the other lady won the grand prize over her.
