The Cook’s Kitchen

Another handy kitchen tip from Todd Johns from Plowboysbbq. Thanks, Todd.

If you’ve ever made a pie, you’ve likely had the edges of the crust burn before the rest of the pie is done. A metal pie crust shield helps balance the cooking time. The way that we use it is to place the pie in the oven as is. Once the edges start to look brown, add the pie crust shield.

Another option if you don’t have a premade shield is to create one out of foil.
