CLEANINGANDSEASONING
BEFORE 1ST TIME USE
1) New cast iron cookware is coated at the factory with a thin layer of
paraffin wax to prevent rusting. To remove the coating, scour the
cooker thoroughly with soap and hot water. Dry completely after
cleaning and begin seasoning immediately, since the cast iron will
rust if left uncoated.
Alternatively, you may heat the casting over your charcoal grill or
campfire to melt off the wax. Cool and wash with hot soapy water.
Dry completely and begin your seasoning.
2) Season by coating the castings, inside and out, with a quality
vegetable oil or solid shortening (do not use butter.) Next, over a grill
or campfire, heat at a moderate temperature for 15 minutes. Wipe
out the inside with a paper towel, recoat and heat again. After
heating the second time, let the cast iron cool then recoat inside and
out with oil, one more time.
CONTINUINGCARETIPS
1) After each use, clean your PIE IRON with hot water and a soft
brush or sponge. A mild soap may be used, however many cast iron
aficionados feel that this may remove the non-stick finish developed
from the pre-seasoning and repeated use. Expect cast iron to
become darker with repeated usage; this shows that it is becoming
well seasoned.
2) Dry completely with a towel after cleaning. Apply a light coating of
cooking oil to the castings to prevent rust during storage.
SNACKS
FRUIT PIES: Use canned pie fillings; apple, cherry, peach are delicious.
Place fillings between 2 slices of buttered bread as per our basic
directions. Latch & trim off excess bread. Grill, sprinkle with sugar.
PUDGY PIE TREAT: Spread peanut butter on 2 slices of bread. Add one
large marshmallow & one chocolate bar square between the buttered
bread slices. Latch handles, trim bread and toast until golden brown.
PIE IRON DESSERTS: Jams, preserves or fresh fruit are delicious when
spread between two slices of buttered white or raisin bread.
EMPENADAS & SAMOSAS: Line cavity of cooker with prepared pie crust
or egg roll. Add thinly sliced onions, fresh garlic & monterey jack
cheese. Seal cooker & cook till brown on both sides. A great South
American snack. To make Indian style Samosas, fill the above with
peas, diced potatoes, diced carrots and a dash of curry powder.
BUTTERMILK BISCUITS: Using prepackaged biscuit mix, measure &
prepare according to instructions. Form into biscuits and place into a
well greased round pie iron. Close, latch handles and bake over low
heat, turning after first two or three minutes.
EGGS
Use in a closed position
for delicious scrambled
eggs and omelets. Add
queso blanco cheese,
tabasco sauce and
some cilantro for great
tasting huevos. Another
good combination is
spinach and feta
cheese added to the
eggs. Fry one egg in
each side by unhinging
the cooker castings.
MEATS
Pork, beef and poultry
are all simple to cook
and can be grilled on
both sides with the
cooker closed. (Do not
use bread when
cooking meats) Please
be careful of grease
dripping from the
cooker when turning
over. You can have
two small skillets by
unhinging the cooker .
BREAKFAST
CORN BREAD: Prepare mix according to directions. Into a well greased
cooker, fill cavity about one third with mix. Close latch handles and
bake over very low heat until done.
CAMPERS DELIGHT: Use any left over cooked meats (ham, bologna,
hamburger, turkey, etc..) Add cheese, spices, and onion. Toast for 3 or
4 minutes for a quick and easy breakfast sandwich.
FRIED POTATOES & ONION: Place sliced potatoes in cooker, salt and
pepper to taste. Add chopped onions and olive oil or butter.
LUNCH
HOT HAM & CHEESE: Place slice of ham and slice of cheese on buttered
bread. Add mayonnaise or mustard and cover with second slice of
bread. Close cooker and grill to a golden brown.
SLOPPY JOES: Use canned, pre-cooked sloppy joe mix or make your
own ahead of time with cooked hamburger, BBQ sauce, and onion.
(Meat must be pre-cooked) Try ground turkey for a healthy taste treat.
TUNA PATTIES: Combine one can of tuna, one egg, one cup crushed
crackers or bread crumbs and one half cup chopped onion. Divide
and form into patties. Place 1 patty in well buttered round cooker,
close and latch. Cook over medium/high, turning several times.
DINNER
REUBEN SANDWICH: Between buttered pumpernickel or rye bread slices,
place cooked corn beef, canned sauerkraut and swiss cheese. Latch
handles, trim bread and grill until bread is toasted.
HAMBURGERS: To very lean hamburger, mix onions, BBQ sauce, and
spices. Make patti sized to fit round cooker cavity. Close and cook
over outdoor open flame until done. Please be careful of dripping
grease.
GRILLED STEAK: Use no bread. Cut sirloin or cube steak into strips. Add
olive oil, spices, mushrooms, green pepper, and chopped onions.
CALZONE: Lightly coat the cooking cavity with olive oil. Using either
prepared pastry crust or pie dough, line the inside cooker cavity. Fill
with tomato paste (or pesto), ricotta cheese, garlic & sliced charred
red pepper strips. Seal & cook over low heat.
