In a food processor place 2 cups flour, 1 T sugar, 1 tsp salt and pulse until well blended.
Chill 3/4 cup Crisco until cold and then add to flour and pulse until it looks like pebbles.
Slowly add 4-5 T cold ice water and pulse until it come together and pulls away from the sides.
Wrap in plastic and chill for at least 30 minutes.
When ready, roll out bottom on floured surface and place in a pie pan.
