YUM! This is the first pie like this that my family has ever tasted -- and it is wonderful! So easy to make, rich, yet not sickeningly sweet...I really liked the custard-like texture with the slightly crisp top...I also found that I should have used a deep-dish crust, because I couldn't fit all of the filling in the crust I had. Other than that, I made this one exactly as written, and I can honestly say that it is a new keeper in my family! I can't WAIT to take this pie to my sisters' next get-together! (Oh, and one more thing -- my kids HATE buttermilk -- so please don't tell them it's in here! They think this is a "sugar pie" and therefore gave it 5 stars all around!) LOL! Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe, Sarge!

This pie is delicious, though very sweet and very rich. Next time I make this I'll use a deep dish pie dish as the filling overflowed and I was very glad I had placed a sheet of foil on a lower shelf of the oven to catch the drippings. Also, the crust browned pretty fast so I would suggest lining the crust edges with foil to protect them a bit. All in all, a good recipe...very nice looking pie and quite tasty! Thanks for posting this Pepper!
