Making Bush Pie’s is a great way to create tasty treats which can only be bound by your creativity. To make one, it starts with a long handled paddle-like cooking tool called a Bush Pie maker. Made of aluminum or cast iron it opens allowing a sandwich to be inserted and then warmed or toasted inside the Bush Pie maker over an open fire or on top of a grill.

The cooking method is fairly straight forward however it all depends on what you have inside your sandwich maker. For a simple sandwich, such as a grilled cheese sandwich, coat one side of the two pieces of bread with butter or margarine. Place the bread inside the Bush Pie maker and add your choice of cheese. Close up the maker and cook turning the Bush Pie maker over every few minutes until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.

For some recipes another key element is how the sandwich is constructed inside the Bush pie maker. If you have a recipe with lots of filling or frankly you seem to want a really full sandwich, it can have a tendency to ooze all over the place once cooked. To help with the issue of losing all the filling, try to leave room around the edge of the bread so that it “seals” as you close the two pieces of the Bush Pie maker together. This should create a pocket for the filling to stay inside.
