Cooking Instructions
You can cook your Pie Iron breakfast sandwiches over a campfire, but did you know that you can also cook them on your camp stove or even grill? This is a great option if it rains or you don't want a campfire that morning! Here's what to do:
Campfire - cook your sandwich for 4 to 7 minutes, turning half way, until the bread is golden brown and egg is cooked. For best results keep the pie iron in a hot area of coals but not TOO HOT. It is easy for the bread to burn before the egg gets cooked.
Camp Stove - Turn your camp stove on medium heat and lay your pie iron directly on the stove grate over the flame. Cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side
Grill - Preheat your grill to a medium heat (300 to 400 degrees). Lay your pie irons directly on the grill and cook for approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side until the bread is golden brown and egg is cooked. If you have a wooden handle keep these away from the grill.

Don't forget to generously spray the pie irons before each breakfast sandwich that you make.
When pouring the egg over the bread, some of it almost always pours out.
It helps to poke some holes in the bread with a fork, or you can use a little less of the egg.
Make sure to use pre-cooked sausage. You can also substitute cooked bacon or a sausage patty. If using a frozen breakfast patty, it should be thawed first.
Tip: cook the meat before you leave home!
SERVING SUGGESTIONS: a side of fresh fruit is a perfect side to these breakfast sandwiches.
