Chocolate pecan rocks! It is hard to top good old lemon merengue(did i spell that right?) or apple pie. I kinda cringe at this thread though wondering when sub dave will pop up and hi-jack the thread.

Chocolate-Bourbon Pecan Pie
Start with a savoury crust, use top-quality dark chocolate (buy blocks and chunk it yourself. You can't get good chocolate in chips -- anywhere.) Make sure you use real bourbon, and that there is enough that each of the pecans will give a burst of flavour from the bourbon. Use enough pecans to fill the pie shell -- the chocolate and other fillings are just to fill in the gaps between the pecans, not to try and minimize the pecans required.
Let it sit overnight, well wrapped so the bourbon doesn't keep vaping off.
Properly done, a 2" slice from a typical 8-10" pie plate should put as much alcohol in your system as half a shot of straight booze. A couple slices can sure make the office party easier to deal with...

As anyone who knows me or has seen me, my girth alone qualifies me as some sort of an expert on the sweeter culinary delights. With this expertease I humbly declare the best pie to be Elderberry Pie when garnished with just a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
(1 piece of mom's elderberry pie has stopped wars, shovelled sidewalks, and done the laundry and dishes)
