    • Hobo pies make a filling and delicious amusement: two pieces of buttered bread sandwich your favorite contents, then toast over the fire in a long-handled pie iron ($15 at amazon.com) to make the original, low-tech hot pocket. You can crimp any filling you like inside the crisp, delectable pies -- cheese, marshmallows and Nutella, peanut butter and jelly, even tinned pie cherries -- but this is our favorite.

    Ingredients

    Serves:

    Directions

    Butter a piece of bread, then spread the unbuttered side thickly with tomato paste before laying on the cheese and toppings. Top with another piece of buttered bread, press the sandwich into the pie iron, and toast it over the fire (ideally over hot coals), turning it from side to side, until the bread looks beautifully browned and the cheese is melted. Keep checking, and don't be dismayed if you burn the first one: it takes a while to get the hang of it, but persevere -- it's so worth it.

    Variation: Chicken Parmesan Hobo Pies. On your way back from the beach, pick up a to-go order of chicken fingers from a clam shack or restaurant and sandwich them in with the tomato paste and cheese. This is the most decadent and delicious thing -- a favorite of kids and grown-ups alike.
