My crust is slightly different. I use the butter/shortening combo. However, I chill my cisco shortening too. So everything but the flour is chilled. I also add a tablespoon of white distilled vinegar. I guess it replaces the vodka. I've never compared it with a crust made with vodka though.
2c KingArthur AP flour or Montana Wheat Is another brand I like.
1/3c cold unsalted butter, cubed
1/3 cold cisco shortening
1/2c ice cold water
1 tsp of white distilled vinegar
Pinch of salt.
Definitely try that recipe variation! :) good luck!
