Steps:
- 1. Try watching this video first to make more sense of this recipe.
- 2. grease your pie pans with Crisco and dust with flour.
- 3. Mix the Crisco (1/2 cup for each crust), approximately 1/4 teaspoon salt for each crust, about a handful of flour for each, and 5 regular tablespoons (out of the silverware drawer) for each, into a soft dough.
- 4. Knead and work the dough by hand until firm enough to roll, and pinch off a piece about the size of your pie pan. Work it a little more and then roll out with the right rolling pin to a size big enough to cover the pie pan.
- 5. Put it in the pan so it layers in, and pinch up the edges around the lip of the pan, trimming away any excess.
- 6. Bake in preheated oven (about 400*) for about 10 minutes.

GRANDMA LEE'S PIE CRUST
My Grandmother, Elizabeth Lee made her pie crusts this way and she taught my Mom and she taught all of the children in the family, even the boys. We had pie making contests and my brothers made much better pies than I did then.

Steps:
- 1. Put flour, lard and salt in a bowl. Using a fork or a pastry cutter, work the mixture to pea size. Add the ice water & a little 7-up a Tablespoon at a time and gently stir till a soft ball forms. Most people don't add enough liquid - I make it sticky. Separate the dough into two and press into an inch thick circle wrapped in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hr. or 15 min in the freezer. Place on floured board to roll out working from the center out on your dough. Don't handle the dough too much, be very gentle or it will get rubbery. I roll one ball to the size of a 10" pie. Add favorite filling. Roll out top crust or make two one crust pies.
