Ingredients:

• 1 (15 oz.) can of pumpkin puree (*not pumpkin pie filling)
• 1 (12 oz.) can of sweetened condensed milk

Preparation: 

1. Preheat your pellet grill to 425-degrees, or as hot as it will go if it won't reach 425

2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all ingredients until well blended.  Feel free to add more/less bourbon to taste.

3. Fill the pre-formed graham cracker crust to the top
