Tennessee Fried Pies

Today, we are setting the table with fried pies.

We have 3 guests today:

Dale Mackey - creator of Dales Fried Pies and Co-Owner of the Central Collective, Knoxville. Dale shares how she started her small fried pie business and also shares one of her favorite go-to recipes that she and her husband Shawn Poynter enjoy. Shawn is an extremely talented editorial and portrait photographer.

Iva Spoon Wilde, of Walland, TN - Iva shares her recipe for her homemade peach filling, and how she makes her pie crust and fried pies. And Iva is the woman who at the age of 6 could dress a chicken. Her Grandmother taught her to do that.

Also, we hear Fred Sauceman’s Pot Luck Radio series about a Lord’s Acre Sale that is held yearly in Hilton’s VA where fried pies play a large part of this yearly event.
