The squash I  am having a brain f**t trying to remember the name of is NOT a 
butternut squash. It looks very much like one but is much larger and has an 
elongated neck. If you are using actual pumpkins then sugar pumpkins are the 
choice. The large jack-o'-lantern type seem to be bland and have coarser 
flesh. The really big pumpkins that you see in contests weighing upwards of a 
hundred pounds or more are actually a variety of winter squash and also make 
very good pumpkin like pies.
