Best-Ever Pie Crust

['2 1/2 cups unbleached all purpose flour', '1 1/2 teaspoons sugar', '1 teaspoon salt', '1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes', '1/2 cup chilled lard or frozen nonhydrogenated solid vegetable shortening, cut into 1/2-inch cubes', '5 tablespoons (or more) ice water']

Blend flour, sugar, and salt in processor. Add butter and lard; using on/off turns, blend until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer mixture to medium bowl. Add 5 tablespoons ice water and mix with fork until dough begins to clump together, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dry. Gather dough together. Divide dough in half; flatten each half into disk. Wrap each disk in plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour. DO AHEAD Can be made 3 days ahead. Keep refrigerated. If necessary, soften slightly at room temperature before rolling out.
