:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: Sorry...but I just can't help but feel I'm sorta responsible on this BS....ahhhhh, the power of the internet! 132$! That is so out of line...and to think I picked mine up for 10$. I'll bet the seller doesn't even know about the AWDA. Waffle Doggers are doing better than some of my investments! :cry: Doug

Does the seller belong to this forum? I hope not. We need to get together and cast our own. Make a three wide, Just big enough to fit on a burner. We could call it a daffle wog.

I've about given up on finding one up here in the great white north. It gets me to thinking that I should build a foundry and borrow an iron from one of the lucky few. I wonder if a cast iron waffle dogger would work ...hmm

Cast iron would work but why, aluminium in easier to cast out of the same mold. Unless you have access to a cast iron foundry.

There is a company making reproduction Toas-tites. Maybe they would be interested in making the Waffle Dogger too?

I posted a link in the Vintage Camping equipment section...since it's a repro with the box and booklet.

I want a waffle dogger. It would be like a breakfast toas-tite waffle. If I could get it seasoned right I think I could really get into experimenting with it.

I have a 6 inch round waffle iron ( cast iron) that has long handles and it works great. The thing about making it out of aluminium is you don't have to season it like you do with cast iron.

I just figured there's so many cast iron, um, aficionados, on this group that it might make it more interesting :)
I don't even have an aluminum foundry set up yet, but I'm very tempted.

Aluminium melts at a lower temp then iron, making it easier . nothing wrong with a cast iron waffle dog that would be cool. I'd buy one or two or three :lol:

What the Deal

Postby AceMan » Thu Nov 17, 2011 2:18 am

I find them on the Gander Mountain site for around $20 with free shipping. They aren't antiques and probably aluminum but I think they will cook dogs just fine.

The seller has a few "Bargain" priced pie irons in his store also. :lol:

I curious about the handles, are they plastic or wood painted black? What material are they normally made out of?

are they actually waffle doggers or hot dog cookers? Plow and hearth has hot dog cookers, I got a little excited for a minute, then realized that is exactly what they were, not waffle doggers. :(

I looked at the Gander Mtn site and all I saw was a dog cooker and a waffle maker; but, not the two combined. :(
