Ross, my wife is watching over my shoulder, and she is punching me and begging me to get that recipe for the onion pie. It looks absolutely delicious.

We were going out to dinner for Father's Day, but we just might stay home and have Onion Pie if you'd be kind enough to share the recipe.

I love that recipe and have played with it the last few years. Here is my variation.




Pie, Tomato, Bacon, Cheese, Richard Fl

Took some ideas from YB and Bryan Love and played with them. Great flavor.




INGREDIENTS:
1 9 Inch Deep Dish Pie Shell
2-3 Tomatoes, Sliced thinly and then in halves
1 Medium Vidalia Sweet or Red Onion, thinly sliced and then in halves--OR--
1 Bunch Green Onions
1 Cup Mayonnaise
1 Cup Extra Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Grated
6-8 Slices Bacon, Cooked to be Crunchy
Basil, Fresh, Chopped
2-3 Tbs Blue or Gorganzola Cheese, Crumbled (Optional ).
Salt/Pepper to taste
Guave or Apple wood for "LITTLE" smoke flavor




Procedure:
1 Poke fork in bottom of pie shell before cooking so as to give the air a chance to escape.
2 Cook pie shell at 375°F for about 10 minutes.
3 When the pie shell has cooled, layer sliced tomatoes, onions and bacon bits almost to top and chopped fresh basil leaves. Save some bacon and basil to sprinkle on the top of the cheese/mayo mixture. Mix the mayonnaise and cheese together and then spread on top.
4 Set BGE up for indirect, legs up. Place pie on grate and cook for 45-60 minutes at 350°F.

Went to make one this AM and did not have but 1/2 Cup Mayo so used sour cream for the difference. Made the pie nice and moist. Will probably do it the next time. Left out the Blue cheese this time.
