Pie Irons
Dinner's over, dusk has passed, the moon has started its arc in silence.
The family sits around the campfire. Stories are told. You've found the
perfect log to sit on. Now the job is to find that balance between being
chilled by the nighttime air & too hot from the fire. "It must be midnight",
you think excitedly, but it's probably only 8:30. Someone brings up the
subject of dessert. What else needs to be said? Mom & dad pull out the
Pie Irons and the ritual begins.
This memory could be from the mid-60s or last weekend. It's a tradition shared
by generations of campers that we're pleased to uphold today with our full line of
Pie Iron sandwich cookers which we've proudly produced since 1964.
So What Exactly Is A Pie Iron?

fruit pies over a campfire. Read the full story here.
