Directions:
Mix flour, brown sugar and salt together. With a pastry cutter, mix in 1lb of Tenderflake lard. Make a hole in the middle. Beat egg and add enough cold water to make 3/4 cup of liquid. Add the vinegar to this liquid. Pour the liquid mixture into the hole in the middle of the flour and lard mixture. Mix until there are no dry ingredients left in the bowl. You could let it stand for an hour but not a necessity. Roll out on a floured surface.
If it doesn't roll well, it will be too dry or too moist. Work in a little water or flour respectively.
