You have to eat your mistakes and this one may require some ice cream help.Oh my…that looks great.
What, no vanilla ice cream?
I certainly wouldn’t let that pie go waste….id put a scoop of vanilla bean with it for sure.You have to eat your mistakes and this one may require some ice cream help.
The convection oven in the new American Range is cooking much faster than the old Garland. I am going to have to calibrate the thermostat because its REALLY fast. I thought I was safe with 45 minutes on the timer but I guess not....

Oh trust me - its not going to waste. Taste test says its fine - just a little more caremelization than I normally get. No ice cream needed but a cup of strong, hot, black coffee helped with all the sugar. I have no self control when it comes to cake or pie. This was still so warm a plate was needed for transportI certainly wouldn’t let that pie go waste….id put a scoop of vanilla bean with it for sure.
That’s one helluva range you have there.
Personally I like pies way more than cake…and with a scoop of vanilla bean n the side all the better.
Are you saying that you found pie in the seat of your Kubota? Had the grandkids been playing around on the tractor recently? Did it look like pumpkin by chance?Lets expand this a bit. Who has eaten pie from the seat of their Kubota?
American Range is well regarded in the commercial restaurant equipment world and they also make some very nice residential equipment.Dan - really like the range also!
That’s a big oven that I’m sure accommodates that very large roasting pan!
Pie as a dessert should be served on a plate with a side of ice cream and eaten with a fork.Should pie be eaten with a bowl and spoon, a plate and fork, or a napkin and your fingers?

I was definitely familiar with Garland in commercial kitchens. Fed 100’s of 1,000’s of people with their equipment.American Range is well regarded in the commercial restaurant equipment world and they also make some very nice residential equipment.
This range replaced a 35 year old Garland that we purchased when we built the house. The old Garland was really a true commercial range retrofit with spark ignition instead of standing pilot lights. Garlands foray into residential equipment lasted no more than 2 years.
The new range is much more refined with real insulation and a convection oven with infared broiler, oven light, and window. Cooktop also has higher output burners and is easier to clean. I am still recalibrating 35 years of cooking times
That roasting pan was a 1991 house warming gift from my sister. Among other things it has been used to roast two turkeys for our Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. It will hold two 25lb birds but this year we downsized to 2 x 15lb. Still makes a lot of very good gravy

The pecan pie was 50 degrees lower. I think I need to find my oven thermometerDid you drop the temp 25 degrees?
It's supposedly a standard when you us a old non convection recipe on a convection oven.
Our oven automatically adjusts when you hit the convection setting.
Here is the old Garland. It was still cooking good as new but getting shabby.I was definitely familiar with Garland in commercial kitchens. Fed 100’s of 1,000’s of people with their equipment.
Known American line but didn’t see them as often. Certainly looks stout.
Many years ago I cooked about 36-30+ # turkeys for our Thanksgiving dinner at the restaurant I worked at.
Like you said, I could fit two turkeys in one of those roasting pans.
Great range. Your new one is a great choice as well.Here is the old Garland. It was still cooking good as new but getting shabby.
