apple pie - baking pan or glass dish

Glass will take longer to cook(doesn't reach temp as fast) but allows for radiant heat(metal and ceramic reflect it) It allows you to see how the crust is coming along, which is likely the biggest reason to use it.

Will I have a problem with the glass breaking? Should i place the pie directly on the grate or should i place it directly on the baking stone?XL BGEJoe JRBaltimore, MD

Just don't expose it to direct flame. Pie baking temps won't be an issue. I'd go PS legs up, grid, stone.

thats what i was thinking. I love the way the crust comes out when placing directly on the stone.XL BGEJoe JRBaltimore, MD

Do your pie indirect. Make sure you have no bad smoke.
My wife makes the best pies and I convinced her to let me cook one on the egg once. I have to say I may never do it again. The smoke taste was just to strong, and I like smoke. I'm sure if I had another chance and made sure the smoke was clear it would be good but trying to convince the one who builds the pie is another story.
Many have had success here though.
As far as the dish, indirect heat is just like oven heat, use the glass pyrex.

No idea... Wife's family recipe... No smoking wood, but it did pick up a gentle smoke flavor in the crust...make sure your smoke is clear before you start ...good luckPROUD MEMBER OF THE WHO DAT NATION!!!!! Stuck in Dallas.......

I did my pie after a cook and I thought I burned off any drippings but I still got a bad taste. SWMBO won't let me stick another of her creations in the egg.
In this case it was operator error.
