If you live in a thoroughbred-loving household, May isn't the month of Maypoles and Cinco de Mayo. It's the month of the Triple Crown, kicking off the first Saturday in May with the Kentucky Derby -- an event known as much for its iconic food as for its thundering thoroughbreds.
When it comes to the eats, the Derby means all things bourbon, from iconic mint juleps to a tasty Derby Pie. The latter might be a trademarked name and secret recipe, but that doesn't mean Kentucky cooks can't come up with their own twists. The above video outlines how you can make Betty's Kentucky Derby Race Day Pie, whether you're itching to bake while wearing your favorite hat (because Derby Day requires a fancy chapeau), throwing a race-day party or just really love bourbon. Betty suggests serving the pie with a hot hazlenut coffee, but you could always whip up a mint julep, grab a non-alcoholic twist, or tuck into bourbon straight-up (unless your guests drank it all!) While we're at it: Who are you rooting for? The gorgeous grey Dunkirk? The 3-1 favorite I Want Revenge?
