This came from a family cookbook. It was originally from a wonderful Texas-based cafeteria specializing in delicious slow-smoked barbecued steak. There were Underwood's in Wichita Falls, Lubbock, Abilene, Ft. Worth, and Waco back in the day, and the meat was even available in Germany via their freezer plant in Lubbock, but today the only remaining cafeteria is the original, which is in Brownwood, south of Abilene.
Ingredients:
1 cup Crisco
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
cold water
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons flour
1 can cherries
1 cup water
4 teaspoons red food coloring (Omit!)
1/2 cup butter
Directions:
Combine Crisco and flour in a bowl and mix well. Add salt and enough cold water to make ingredients cling together. Roll the dough until it is very thin. Cut up butter or margarine and place in a 12 x 13 inch pan. Combine in bowl the sugar, salt and flour.
Mix well. Add the cherries, water and food coloring (Omit!). Mix well and pour over butter in pan. Top with rolled out crust. Bake at 350 until brown. A little less than an hour.
Note: The Underwood's Cafeteria's always had blueberry alongside the cherry cobbler. I have not tried it but would assume the recipe is the same but with blueberries instead of the cherries.
