What is a "pie iron"?

A pie iron is a cooking tool used for making pies and sandwiches over an open flame or campfire. It typically consists of two hinged metal plates with long handles, resembling a miniature cast-iron skillet. To use a pie iron, you place bread or pie crust dough on one side, add fillings such as fruit, meat, cheese, or vegetables, and then close the iron. The filled pie iron is then placed over the fire, where it cooks the contents, creating a delicious, toasted pie or sandwich. They come in various shapes and sizes, including round, square, and rectangular.
