If you use the pie dough, you can make little meat (pre-cooked hamburger or chicken)and veggie pasties

 Oh, Lori, you do have a wild side, don t you?!?  That s an odd way to make pasties, but if that s what Dave likes, well, who am I to judge.  []  I think what you wanted to make was pastries.[]

BTW if you get the urge and there s no campfire around the pie irons work just as well on your gas grill. IMHO they actually work better as you ve get a constant source of heat and after the first one you ve got the time down pat.

 LOL! []
 
 Nope, it really is pasties (pronounced with a short " a" , like in apple).  (Thanks for backing me up here vjm!)  You can even ask 6Quigs.  I think he s from the UK and would know what I m taking about.  Cottonwooder would too.  Cornish pasties are very yummy!
 
 I used to be married to an Englishman, and we were together for a very long time, so I picked up a bit of his accent (people thought I was English) and a lot of his manners of speech and became very good at " taking the mickey"  out of him with them.  I still have a lot of British-isms peppered throughout my speech because some of the phrases they use are so much more colorful and descriptive at conveying what I m trying to say.  I forget that most people don t know what I m talking about--but that s true even when I m not speaking Brit!  []
 
 Now, naughty girl--shame on you!!![][][8D]  (and just you never-no-mind about my wild side--those stories ll give you grey hair! [])

Hey, we know all about pasties!  My " x" [:@] had family from the Copper mine area in the U.P. of Michigan.  Pasties are great comfort food during our cold winter months.  I ll have to try them in the pie irons, soon.
 
 And, yes, it is pronounced like " pasta"   with the " ee"  sound at the end instead of an " ah"  sound.
 
 If you pronounce it like " paste - tee" ...these are non-edible " decorations" .  Well, maybe some are edible, but I don t want to about them[].
 
 Peace be with you all.

The pie irons give you another option for cooking.  We don t use them all the time but we do get them out on most trips.  I wrap them in heavy duty foil for storage in the PU.  That way they don t make a mess in the PU.
