It's been interesting to see what people's opinions are on this. The small
sugar pumpkins tend to be much better than the jack-o-lantern types when it
comes to pie, but I think even they are beat by other squashes. I'm a little
surprised to hear so many saying butternut as I've never been a huge fan of
the butternut flavor in my pumpkin pies (though the texture is fantastic and
I have had some butternuts that were awfully good). I would second blue
hubbard as being excellent, but it tends to need a long season. My absolute
favorite for pies would have to be sweet meat, hands down. Unfortunately it
is sometimes harder to find seeds for them as a lot of the major catalogs
don't seem to have it. Territorial seeds carries it, as well as "sugar
hubbard" a sweet meat x blue hubbard hybrid.

I started my sweet meat seeds indoors last weekend :-)
