Last year’s crowning glory, the Southern Tomato Pie

Here at Sassafras, we think about pie constantly. We eat, sleep and breathe it. And to tell you the truth, we just can’t get enough of it. But, we know our pies, and we are ready to venture out and taste what the rest of Portland has to offer.

This is where you come in – want to know your pie. Do you make it with fruit? Vegetables? Meat? Cheese? Shortening or butter crust? Top crust or not? We want to know!

Make your favorite pie(s) and bring it to the Portland Pie Off this Sunday, August 16th, and show us what you’ve got. Oh, and just so you know, we were the winner last year, and we are honored to be a judge this year.

This is your chance to become a pie champion. To be the pie queen or king of Portland. And to take our crown!

Pie not your thing? Well come anyway – once the judging has finished, all of the pies will be available to the public for eating. Yum!
