Oops! I meant a "bit" of lard, not a "big" of lard! hahaha. That tip is from Alton Brown and really... due to melting temps, etc... it's what makes the pie crust WOW. By a bit, I mean like 1 tablespoon.

I'd like to try your pie! Crust! Pie crust! I meant pie crust!

(Added you, btw, hope that's ok)
