Apple pie isn’t complicated and you can’t really mess it up.
Sorry I meant I’ve used both Lard and butter.
Where, in heaven's name, do you find lard?
At any grocery store
They pretty much all carry it but might not have a big stock so if you've looked and not found it, they are just out. Giant and Wegmans both seem to carry Morrell Snow Cap Lard, which is great for baking.
OK, great and where in the store is it generally found?
Near the butter. OR, go to the refridgerated section of Latino foods. It is called Manteca.

OP I know Thanksgiving is behind us but if you are still looking for good pie, try Breads Unlimited on Arlington Road in Bethesda.

In the time it took to read this thread, you could've made the crust.
