Signature Sour Cherry Pear Crumble Pie

To make this sour cherry and pear crumble pie (Guy Fieri’s favorite!), sour cherries are tossed with cubed pears, fresh ginger, and lemon, and topped with a brown sugar crumble.

Back in 2006, two Brooklyn cooks named Sarah Sanneh and Carolyn Bane converted a tiny, six-stool former beer storage closet into a homespun counter serving up doughnuts, fried chicken, biscuits, pies, and smoked pork sandwiches. Rave reviews from The New York Times, New York Magazine, Food & Wine, and many more soon followed (as did a visit from Guy Fieri for “Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives”), and Pies ‘n’ Thighs legacy as one of New York’s best Southern restaurants was cemented. Today, Pies ‘n’ Thighs (which has since moved into larger digs) is a Brooklyn legend, a must-visit for anyone craving expertly-made Southern comfort classics.
