Does anyone have a recommendation or two for a refrigerated pre-made pie crust.  I prefer to stay away from frozen, and would like to find a crust that's made with good quality ingredients.  Prefer sheets rather than the kind that comes already shaped and formed in the thin aluminum pans.  Cost is of secondary concern.  Thanks!

I know that I should say nothing in this thread, but I am sure you will get some acceptable answers (you already have one) to your question.  But I cannot resist saying that (IMHO) there is really no substitute in taste for a crust made from butter.  If you have a food processor, you might try Julia Child's recipe (the one in From Julia Child's Kitchen).  I make some minor alterations to it (such as mixing in the water with a fork), but it is fine the way it is.  With very little practice you would be able to whip up a great crust in a short period of time.

I'm with Shelby. The Doughboy makes as good a pie crust as I do.

Don't ask. Eat it.
