I've never heard of a Pumpkin Pecan pie.
I prefer Pecan pie.

I’ve heard the term mincemeat pie, but had to Google to see what’s in it.
Seems like its easier to list what’s NOT in it! Geez. apples, apple cider, candied cherries, brown sugar, apricots, dried cherries, cranberries, currants, figs, orange zest, orange juice, golden raisins, raisins, schmaltz, allspice, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, salt, and ¾ cup rum |

Anyways, pies and cakes are all pretty much the same to me.
Just slightly different ways to hold a bunch of sugar together ![]() |

I always thought Mince Meat pie was Pecan pie but maybe I'm wrong about that. I like both but this is my fav:
My wife and I put together an apple pie this morning.

I worked with a guy that lived his life in the Netherlands until age 30.
He would sometimes bring in an Almond Pie that his wife made. A small slice was enough for anyone and it was the best pie that I've ever had. He said that the main ingredient was butter. ![]()

Pecan pie, slightly warmed with a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream on top. As the ice cream melts it runs into all the cracks and crevices of the pie, oh my delicious heaven!!!

And then there's always the 'left overs' from the apple pie makings which end up as a cobbler of sorts kinda.
I see this has already been sampled... ![]()

You have that right....vanilla bean ice cream makes any pie great!

I voted pumpkin. I'm not really a huge fan of pumpkin pie, but I've had some that I liked.
I've never had or heard of pumpkin pecan. I think I had mincemeat somewhere many years ago when I was a kid. I don't think I liked it. I might like it today. If I got to pick, I'd go with traditional pecan pie. I like chocolate pie, but I don't really associate that with Thanksgiving. My mom used to make what she called a French apple pie, which apparently is also called Dutch apple pie or streusel apple pie. The only or at least, main difference between that and a regular apple pie is that instead of crust on top, it's got a brown sugar crumble on top.

"Why do they call it mince meat pie?"
The reason mincemeat is called meat is because that's exactly what it used to be: most often mutton, but also beef, rabbit, pork or game. Mince pies were first served in the early middle ages, and the pies were quite sizeable, filled with a mixture of finely minced meat, chopped up fruit and a preserving liquid.

So this must be a poll... I don't see any pies listed in the OP, or polls on mobile view...
