Mom's Fried Pies (Texas Country Reporter)

[@inamacalin1]

Finaly it's good to see who makes these delicious pies. I had one at a WV PETRO TRUCKSTOP in Ramadan and after driving two hours I had a bite and man I almost turned around.

[@mov1ngforward]

Nice! The best food is usually in the most unlikely places. We found an excellent fried chicken served in a rest stop convenience store and people from my office in San Francisco, all talked about it. 3000 restaurants in San Francisco, at the time, and they loved chicken.

[@touristfromearth]

the pies are not halal bro. they use lard

[@pinacolaaadas]

@@touristfromearth nothin like a little lard to strengthen your faith

[@dwaynekoblitz6032]

Not a damn thing wrong with a beautiful fried pie. I hope she’s raking in millions! She’s a very beautiful woman. Heart and soul. And NEVER tell!!

[@mike856ms]

$1.79 a pie is such a fair price. I'd buy 10, I love fried pies.

[@marcosvialpando1391]

You can! I called the number in the description which isn't the business number by the way and they are mailing me 10 cherry and 10 apple fried pies! From Texas to New Mexico with love! They have 11 different flavors. The best thing is they seem like really nice folks the lady who answered was so friendly and helpful. I sure am happy to support their business and can't wait to taste those buys. Will be back to update once I taste em!

[@honkimusmaximus7477]

"Fair" price.

[@villagevoicefilms5861]

I would pay air fare to partake in such delicious fare at a fair price

Under $2 to put a smile on your face. Sounds like a bargain to me.

Sure miss my grandmothers fries peach pies. She always made plenty for everyone and we at’em up.

[@meggo329]

May i ask why you dont make them then. I have all of my mothers and grandmothers and greatgrandmothers recipies and i make them

Oh, the fried pie memories! Thanks for that! 😎

These pies are amazing!

Don’t they make fresh Pies at “the strand” opposite Nottingham pub? Lol

[@gregknight293]

..........This sure makes me hungry for a good ole fashioned fried pie.....My grandmother used to make peach and apple fried pies and I bet these pies would be great too....Many thanks ...

[@kman2783]

Especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, OMG 😲 🌴😎🌴

[@LoriFoster]

I’m going to have to go to TX for a few weeks to hit all these great food places and treats! 🕺🏼

[@tereasacarty3135]

Definitely worth the price and can't get any fresher !my fav is the pecan pie! Good job Anna and hope you pass this recipe down to the daughter❤️

[@jotatru]

In Argentina we call them empanadas, and we have a place that makes them the same way you can find pizza in new york, everywhere! We have a lot of different fillings and types of crust, but Anna's seem much more flakier than ours, we don't have them like that! I want to try them!

[@adc2327]

These are mostly sweet. Apple, chocolate, pecan, pineapple, lemon, etc. Aren't empanadas mostly savory?

[@GypsyFairy85]

@@adc2327 They can be both.

[@lindaeasley4336]

Both my grandmas made fried pies 😋 Those were the days . Sadly neither are alive anymore

[@bluegrassfan23]

But Linda, you can learn how to make those delicious fried pies on your own easy enough if you can make pie dough. And I'll bet your family will love them!

[@meggo329]

So learn the life skill to make them its not rocket science

Just amazing, humble hardworking family 💪🙏

Bobby hills obsession with fruit pies now makes sense to me.

[@rubyanderson8800]

Looks just like my mom's and grandma's fried pie. To die for. Yum!!! We made them in my mom's basement too. My grandma had a special crust recipe too.

[@imeldadecastro8554]

Please can you share for or for us if you don't mind madam,,, thank you

[@bdheidbhg2847]

For those you wondering “are these pies really that good?”, I can tell you first hand that these pies are THAT GOOD. The flakiness of the crust is delicious and makes it different.

[@northernsoutherngirl]

This just appeared in my timeline today 6/3/21. I live back East where they just moved from. I'd love to try one of their pies!🥧 Especially impressed that while prepping & cooking the food that they're wearing hair bonnets & gloves!👍🏾

[@-greentoad]

Not all of them had gloves. The 3 women were not wearing gloves at all.

[@michaelrau7003]

God bless Texas!!!!

[@mattedwards4533]

Your pies have that mouth watering look, yum,yum,yum!

[@jimmclean9312]

I had never heard of fried pies until now. Sounds like something I'd like to try. Scottish background say that anything you can fry has got to be good !

[@Psych911]

Its the Scottish influence in the South, that's why they deep fry everything lol

Taking time to do things right will,gave your food,the best tasting pie’s ever.it makes you feel good when people say you have the best pies ever.

Next time I go to Texas I'll stop by for a pie. Sad part is I haven't been to Texas since '86 when I went to college in Dallas.

[@vh2337]

Flaky pastry is achieved by using a combination of very cold shortening and butter or lard if you aren't scared of it..lol

[@joshuaconstable6323]

Thank you! can you give some insight on how to prepare it if you don't mind? I'd love to make these for my family

[@MooseMeus]

my grandmother used lard in her dinner rolls. they were unbelievable.

[@Jesuslovesyou8525]

Tallow is much healthier btw

[@alecnolastname4362]

Joshua My grandmother taught me to mix the fat and flour together with my fingers, you’re looking for about a pea sized lumps or smaller. Keep a bowl of ice water nearby the warmer your hands are the faster the fat will melt and you don’t want it to melt at all. But keep your hands dry too. And when you roll it out try not to work it to much. Sorry I don’t remember the ratio

[@lordjaashin]

butter or tallow are much much superior. lard has some weird porky smell to it. i just don't like it.

[@lindamotley6217]

I think this is wonderful, especially the family doing it together, I tried to make some last year, and they disintegrate in the oil, lol....so it's great to see this!!!! I love the machine press they have, they are definately onto something!!!!!!

[@Jesuslovesyou8525]

Maybe more glutinous flour was needed? Or another binder.

[@starriderkittykat9064]

They seem like good people! Now I want their pies though,got my mouth watering!

I love mom & pop enterprises! ❤👍❤

Geez, $1.80 that is a steal. You could sell these for $4 each all day long at fairs and festivals around here.

if you buy it at 1.80, you will buy many and buy it everyday.

[@ohrui3156]

What type of sos inside pies. Chocolate or something else?

[@ryansproviero]

Had them in Houston years ago and they were putting savory stuff in them like ham and cheese. Was like a fresh hot pocket.

I'm wondering if Anna has had any thoughts of selling franchises? Or course the franchisees would be bound to nondisclosure agreements for her recipe, but I see $$$ opportunity and money 💰 in the family's future if they expand nationwide. She could even train franchise owners in her basement, lol. I don't think a huge location would be needed? Mom's Baked pies could be the next Dunkin Donuts??? Only in America can this happen, I love this country...🌴😎🌴

They are amazing!!!

[@edwardmata571]

Awesome love fried pies

[@AntonioCostaRealEstate]

Russians, Dominicans, Brazilians , Chileans , Argentines have it similar , only difference the filling ain’t sweet. In Brazil they do not flatten the dough. It’s rather stretched. Thin , crispy. Russians tend to make it oily. Latinos do the half moon shape as show on small sized. In São Paulo , Brazil, every farmer’s market sustains at least three stands , the shape is rectangular, larger , and it is best served piping hot. Fillings vary.... Heart of palms Cheese Ground meat Chicken brats minced with cheese Dry cod fish. Japanese descendants 2nd and 3rd generations mostly ) master the art of the dough making, which is kept a secret that is hard to crack. They call them Pastel.
