In my experience, bad pastry is very common in commercially made pies/quiches - soggy or horribly underbaked bases are pretty much standard. Which is a real pain in the rear end because a.) good pastry is amazing and b.) even a perfect filling can't make up for a lovely crust. fake edit: I'm talking about ready-to-eat pies, if your bake at home pie has underbaked pastry that is 100% your own fault.

yeah the outer crust of most pies is a dense thing like a pop-tart and not something that I would call pastry I'm not saying they "should" be like this, the platonic PIE is delicious, but most are bad because

I will say that the *best* pies I've had were home-made by myself or a friend of mine who is an incredible baker. Eating her pie was the closest I've come to enjoying the experience of pie-crust eating. I pulverized that pie and went back for more. {I am well aware of how this all sounds.} My own recipe was a homemade cherry pie which was just fantastic but I was still a little disappointed by the crust, and I used an all-butter recipe. I'll keep trying, thread. I promise I'm not just throwing out fractious notions, I speak only from my own experience!

I even like bad pie crust. Which is good since I can't have proper buttery crust anymore.

Just use lard. I know it sounds gross, it even smells vaguely gross, but a pound of Snowcap lard is like $1. Tried this once when making a pie crust (for a French-Canadian meat pie) and am not inclined to look back. Cut it with butter if you must for the savory richness, but lard makes the best-textured, flakiest crust. Fake edit: I don't want to Guy Goodbody/Gripweed up the AFP thread but I don't document my ugly foods, have a look at my crack buns instead. Made these for the whole office, including homemade patissiere cream/whip cream blend:  Surely someone finds this image gross...and look at how wrong they are.

I almost forgot about Chocolate Delight! My aunt makes it for big family get togethers. It's like a bunch of Cool Whip, pudding, cream cheese, and pecans all layered together and if you like chocolate it's worth fighting at least one medium sized human for.

I have no idea how true it is. But I do know everyone in french canadia (even the heretics who call a normal meat pie tourtiere) that lard always makes the best meat pies.
