from what I remember my father in law telling me about these in the 70's is you HAVE to find the ones that crimp the edges...for perfect hobo pies, pizza filling or cherry pie

I haven't had a chance to use these yet so I can't vouch for how they perform, but I literally just pulled them out of the Amazon shipping box, and man are these things solid as hell. I read a previous review that indicated you could use these as a weapon and then continue to make hobo pies, and I'm here to assure you that this is fact. As soon as I pulled this out of the box I could tell they were worth the money I paid just in the weight and construction. I was reluctant to spend the higher price on this product as there are alternatives in the Amazon store, but I've owned those ones before and I was looking for something new. I am a firm believer in the fact that if you buy something that is of higher quality at a higher price, you will get more from it in the long run. I have no doubt that I was right in my thinking this time around. The company saw that I had placed two separate orders and wrote to me directly to ensure that I hadn't made a mistake before they shipped which was refreshing and very respectable on their part. I think that my family is really going to enjoy these for many years to come. I'm not being asked to write this review and I'm not being paid either. I shop the hell out of things when I make a purchase and I did the same for these cookers. That being said, I have no regrets as I feel that these are of excellent quality. I will be ordering from this company again.

Nice product. One of the few that puts a crimp on the sandwich edge. This is my preference however it does make cleaning more difficult.

My grandson and I had the best time making pies while camping last weekend! We used a metal firepit since the campground didn't allow fires on the ground. Good thing we used it because it had a perfect grilling top where we set the pie irons and didn't have to hold them. We made pizza pockets and cherry pies with icing! It was the first time for both of us ever using or even seeing a pie iron in use. I had a little trouble when seasoning them as I used too much oil and it made lumps on the surface. Not to worry - I discovered I could sand them a bit and keep heating them on a BBQ grill. They finally rectified & I expect many years of use from these delightful pie irons! Oh - I was so excited about them that I made a few pies for my friends on a BBQ grill after we got home. Everyone loved them. I plan to make many BBQ grill pie iron dinners!

I just finished seasoning with a few alternating cycles of Flaxseed and Crisbee over the open flame on my stove top. Darkening up real good. Some dang sharp edges on the hinge pins that will need smoothing. Locks tight with a bit of overbite. I’m trying to do my part with USA made because I trust the iron composition more than Chinese crap. In the end its a personal choice because it is expensive for what it is.
