turkey pie debacle

Why not just par cook it at home and finish it at your fictional grandparents house?

Am I supposed to have intimate knowledge of your non existent grandparents appliances? Why wouldn't you just set and wrap the second pot pie in your own cast iron pan and transport it that way? How did you transport both the dough and the filling to your grandparents house? Could Mozart still be alive? Why not just bring some leftovers of the first pot pie to your grandparents and nuke it? Why is Donatello the best Ninja Turtle?

Doesn't everything that transpires happen in the past?

Wtf is a Mogwai anyway? Is it not a regular gremlin?

On the way to your grandparents' house was the filling in the second pie or was it packed separately from the crust?

A big part of what baking does is dehydrate, so the extra cook time could have had to do with increased moisture in the crust due to the migration of moisture from filling.

in both pies the filling and the crust were kept separate until they were assembled and put in the oven

It's probably that their oven sucks. Thermocouple probes in ovens can lie. The only way to be sure is to check both ovens with the same standalone oven thermometer. If you go over to someone else's house to bake and it's important that it comes out on time, you should be a dork and bring your oven thermometer.

In theory, if both pans were cold, the cast iron one would have taken longer in the same oven at the same time because of the greater thermal mass.

You have a warped sense of time

>or does the cast iron make that huge of a difference?

"Cast iron" doesn't matter in this case, but it's well known that the color of a baking pan makes a big difference. A dark color absorbs heat, cooking faster. A shiny pan reflects heat, cooking slower. You might have seen this before on the side of a box of brownie or cake mix. They'll tell you to bake it longer if you are using a shiny pan.

and >>8448054 is exactly right about ovens varying. The temperature setting on home ovens is notoriously inaccurate. It's easily possible that your home oven cooks "hotter" than your grandparent's oven does.
