This fall @Wildflower @Burlkraft  and @Scooby Doo  made and froze 20 apple pies from our wolf river apple tree. 

Yesterday I thawed 2 pies out, baked them, chilled them, sliced, then refroze and then vacuum packed individual slices.

Awesome snacks you can either eat partially frozen, thawed, or reheated.

I bet they are nice apples to. Around here they will get rail road worms around old orchard areas. Up at the woodlot I had a nice apple that was good in October. But the road crew pushed it over. It never had worms. The bears sure liked it to. I see another wild apple up there in a part of a grown in field. It was loaded with apples last fall. Never tried them.

This tree is still propped. Bears have tipped it over 3 times. It wouldn't tip over nowI don't think.

smart and tasty!  at the holidays, my grandmother would bake 8 or 10 pies of variety.  she would say at the onset, "these 3 pies are for Bryan".  I would eat 2 full plates of food and finish nearly all three pies.  I might share a little.  I wrestled 98 pounds as a 13 y/o freshman and did not have to lose weight.  In college I weighed 145 and was 3% body fat.  my how times have changed!

That made my stomach growl.  Nice!

I can personally attest to the quality of these apple pie, well two pieces anyway. Had a nice visit with Mr and Mrs Boss, Burlcraft & Scooby Doo.
My bride got her dog fix to hold her until she got back home to her puppy. That is a pack at the Brokaw ranch!

I like a good apple pie for sure. I also like a nice winter squash pie to. 

A cousin was in a hardware store locally. Spied some apple pies the Mennonite women were selling. He thought he would buy one, but saw the price, that sowered the apple pie. I think it was close to $20. No question about it being a good pie. But I don't know anyone who will pay that. The grocery stores charge $3 a lb for apples, but if you go to the orchard in season, 20 lbs is $5. Apples are best in the fall anyway. Never saw an apple in the dead of winter that was any good.
