On the Egg, indirect, 400 degree dome, a little bit of water in the pan for about 45 minutes

I still need to try making these pies! Looks great!

Wow...those look exceptional. I'd imagine they're a lil more healthy since its lacking the bottom crust. How'd they come out?

Looks great. My daughter will want to do this now.

How did you carve out the apples? That looks awsome. Mmmm...

Tjcoley · August 2012

To carve out the apples, I just sliced off the top, then used a paring knife to cut around the inside, leaving about 1/4 inch of apple. Used a teaspoon to scoop and finish carving out. A melon baller may work better because it is sharper than a spoon, but I couldn't find it in the drawer.

Wow, these look great and will definitely get added to a future cook.

bigphil · August 2012

Done and i've been told i have to eat dinner first before dessert stupid rules in this house bad influence on the kids or something like that .

I need to go to the store as soon as the kids go to bed! The Hell with late night butts and brisket. Let's cook some Apple pies!

They were great with a little vanilla ice cream. The pie filling turned out perfect, the apple itself could have gone 5 more minutes on the Egg. Everyone still ate all of it and no one complained. A big hit.
