I'm not a pie guy myself, unless it's apple pie so this is certainly going to be one I will be trying soon!

You get much smoke flavor in it? We tried pecan bars a few weeks ago. They were good, and just the slightest hint of smoke - I almost wanted a little more.

Didn't taste a lot of smoke. Not near as much as expected. A delicious apple pie none the less. I may throw the apple slices in the cold smoker box next time for a few. That should help give it a bit more smoke kick.

So this happened last night.

The pie was amazing @navydroid. In fact my wife said it was the best apple pie she's every had!
