Each week, the cast of America’s Test Kitchen brings the recipes, testings, and tastings from Cook’s Illustrated magazine to life on our public television series. With more than 2 million viewers per episode, we are the most-watched cooking show on public television.
More than 1.3 million home cooks rely on Cook’s Illustrated and Cook’s Country magazines to provide trusted recipes that work, honest ratings of equipment and supermarket ingredients, and kitchen tips.
Um, really? I just make and bake my pies the day before, or even two days before, and when cooled, put plastic wrap over them and sit them in the laundry room (cooler) or even in the garage (cold), or refrigerator them. Why would you want to bake pies Thanksgiving Day? It takes a long time for pecan pie to cool down. Bake them the day before, one and done!

Great idea! thanks for the effort. I wish I had the pie ready now though. Can I have a piece of yours? Do you deliver, ha ha ha.
If using a ceramic or glass pie plate, is there a chance of your dish breaking when you place it in the preheated oven straight out of the freezer?
Thank you so much ATK team! Do keep them coming! It's much appreciated!
