Fall is here and Thanksgiving will be here soon, with lots of friends and family around who love to eat. When it comes to making homemade food for holiday guests, I think pie has to be my favorite dish to make, since there is never any left to have to throw away.

Thoroughly mix ingredients. Pour mixture to the top of each pie crust.
Grill temperature should be 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place pies on grill opposite hot coals. Cover grill and cook for 25-30 minutes. After 25-30 minutes…
