I have never tried this one before. I probably would like it, but this is one I hope someone out there has already tried. It sounds very good, but I would like to know how it goes. Thanks again Albert.

This is a different way to have an apple pie,pork,pork fat on the inside of the pie is very different.a sorta of savory dish not a dessert.does this recipe have a German background as they use a lot apples in meat dishes.

Not sure where it originated from, but I suspect it could be German/East European.
