Prepare 2 slices of bread (butter them or I use butter flavor non

works well). Sprinkle parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese over

Cheeseburger Rhonda Serafini Contest Entry: May 1, 2001 |

You will need approximately 1/4 cup of ground beef for each pie. Crumble beef (you may add sliced onions if you like) and cook just until no longer pink. Butter both sides of the iron, and place bread in the iron. Put about 1/4 cup of mixture on the bread slice, add cooked bacon if you want, and top with a slice of cheese. Close iron, and cook over fire checking occasionally to see if it is a nice golden brown. Yum!!! |

Butter 2 slices of bread. Place one slice butter side down on the
iron. Put 1 to 3 tablespoons of Dinty Moore's Beef stew and a
little pepper on the first slice. A slice or small(1/2")
cubes of a tangy cheese (like cheddar) top the stew, then cover with
the second slice of bread, close iron, trim crusts and place in campfire
coals until as brown as you like.
This comes pretty close to a traditional coal miner's lunch in Cornwall,
UK.

Mexicali
Hobo Pie |
|
Oil or butter the pie iron on both inner sides. Place a half of a
9 or 10" soft tortilla on one side. Soon about 2 or 3
tablespoons of canned refried beans (any style) in the middle of the
half tortilla. Top the beans with a tablespoon of shredded
cheddar. Sprinkle with taco seasoning or chili powder. Fold
over the overhanging edges of the tortilla. Trim overlapping edge
and use to cover the beans not covered by the curved opening.
Close and clamp iron and place in the coals, cooking only a few minutes
until the filling starts to bubble a bit.
Serve dipped in salsa. This is a little messy, but very fast and delicious. |

Stew
Sandwich Donna L. Wells Contest Entry: June 21, 2001 |
|
Spray iron with Cooking Spray and heat in hot embers.
While iron is preheating prepare sandwiches by buttering (or spraying -
which I find much easier) outside of bread. Place two heaping
tablespoons of canned beef stew (add teaspoon of favorite cheese if
desired) between slices of bread. Place in pie iron and heat until golden
brown on both sides. Time varies depending upon heat of fire.

Brownies Kathy Pilato Contest Entry: July 3, 2001 |

I make brownies ahead of time and put it in a container to go in cooler.
Make them a little fudgy.
You can use a box mix. Spray the pie iron on both sides with non-stick
cooking spray. Lay the iron flat on a rock and fill almost halfway
with the batter. Lay gently on the embers as flat as possible (not
where it is the hottest). In about 5 minutes, you can pull it away
from the fire and see if it is starting to set up. If so, flip it to
the other side and do the same with that side. If it starts to steam
too much, it is burning, so be careful. What is nice about this
recipe is that if it doesn't get done all the way, who cares? Who
doesn't like to like the batter bowl? You can also add nuts, choc
chips, mint chips, m & m's, etc. It is hard to do this when it
is too dark because you can't tell if you are burning the brownies, be
careful! Our campsite is the most popular because of these brownies!
