Number of Servings:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 cups - lard
  2. 2 cups - flour
  3. 1 1/2 teaspoons - salt
  4. 1 tablespoons - sugar
  5. - ice water
  6. 3 cups - rhubarb
  7. 2 cups - strawberries plus or minus a little
  8. 1 1/3 cups - sugar
  9. 1 tablespoons - butter
  10. 7 tablespoons - flour

Directions:

1. Mix dry crust ingredients. Take one cup of dry mixture and cut in one small slab of lard with a knife until lard is pea-sized. Repeat until all of the lard is cut in.
2. Pour ice water into dry mixture and mix with a pastry blender until consistency is correct. Put in fridge until step no. 4.
3. Mix filling ingredients together and set aside.
4. Flour the board and press crust dough onto it, pressing out in a circular motion. Flip the dough and flour the board again, repeating the pressing motion. Do this several times until the dough can be rolled out easily.
5. Unstick dough from board with a flat spatula and lay it inside pie pan.
6. POKE HOLES IN DOUGH WITH A FORK! DON'T FORGET!
7. Pile filling mixture into pie shell and dot with the tablespoon of butter. (If you forget to do this, you can always slit holes in the top crust and shove the butter in that way. It'll still be delicious.)
8. Cover with top crust and poke steam holes. Brush crust with half and half and sprinkle on a little bit of cinnamon sugar.
9. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes and then 350 degrees for 40-45 minutes.

Let pie set for at least an hour before serving.
