Have you thought about getting a cheap bottom round, cooking it at 165 for a couple hours, then saw it into slices and put it a the ends of the platter with the perfectly sliced rib roast?

I still prefer other pies but I can eat that pie pumpkin pie she made. She has passed and I don't know the exact recipe so no more of that.

Another pie I don't like is mincemeat pie an Aunt would always make one or two for the huge family get together at TG. I tried it once and never again. The WWII generation and older cleaned it up though.

Turkey, Tourtiere, Pumpkin Pie

Pretty much the only time of year I'll make any of those 3. Maybe Tourtiere for Christmas.

I've never heard of Tourtiere, but it looks like it's a meat filled pie? Do you have a good recipe to try? Looks like something I would like

Now I have to go look up old Weebl and Bob episodes. Thanks for that.

It may have to do with the texture as much as the taste, to be honest. Kind of like eating fried okra and you get that stringy one and you're just done.

Okay you have to stop. Even with the woody pieces, fried okra is just untouchable.

At some point, you just go along with the available sides if they are breaded and fried.
