I have had a mountain pie maker for a few years now. Although until very recently, a good ten minutes at least, I never knew that's what they were called. We had one as a kid and we always called it that sandwich maker thingy with the long handles. I only have ever made grilled cheese in it.
I would like to branch out but I am not interested in those buy a can of pie filling type recipes. What else do people do with them? What kind of bread works best? Would Martin's Potato bread work or is it too softish? I have been buttering the outside of the bread. Is there a better method? Any suggestions? I am all ears!
Oh look I misspelled mountain on the thread title. WHOOPS!

Reason: corrected the typo in title
I'd go with a nice, dense bread similar to the Pepperidge Farm white/wheat sandwich bread. A softer bread won't hold up, I don't think.
I'd probably start with savory items -- maybe a Reuben sandwich, or flavors similar to a calzone.
Thanks. I couldn't rep you again, I need to spread the love around. Ruebens are one of my favourite sandwiches. I never would have thought of this but I think it will work really well. I am hoping to expand my camping menus this year and Ruebens would be a great addition. Thanks again!
Oh, gosh, I remember those! I suggest looking through the comments at the Amazon link for inspiration. I saw a couple of suggestions for ways to use it in just in the first few responses, and I'm sure there are many more to be found.
Its called a pie Iron. Never heard "mountain pie maker" used before.
