In the never-ending cycle of boom-and-bust trendiness that moves cupcakes and doughnuts from hot to not to hot again, there is one constant: pie. We scoured the country to find the very best. Here, Food & Wine names America's best pie spots.

Every time my girlfriend and I stop for a slice she can't go more than a mile without devouring the entire thing!
Sour Cream Raisin Pie made me shed a tear.
I had an uncle from Chicago who open an ice cream store. Every time he came back to visit he'd buy about 10 pies and take them back. You know they had to be worth the drive!.
A group of us stumbled upon the Norski Nook returning from a Boundary Waters trip 10 years ago and were so impressed that we stopped there early in the AM as we drove up 2 years later. We ended up taking a strawberry-rhubarb masterpiece into the Waters the next day. It was the best pie ever, ever, ever ....!!!! We even used the large heavy aluminum pie plate as a skillet for two huge lake trout that a couple of the guys caught.
I still have that plate.
THANK YOU, Norski Nook!
