I took my new waffle iron for a test drive tonight on the camp stove. Here are the results:

I used a boxed waffle mix. Just add watter & oil. Not bad tasting. Only one stuck slightly. My wife who doesn't like waffles even tried one & liked it.

I am not going to make it to Deming. I have a picnic that weekend I am going to. I am also missing LaMay's this year to take my son on his first Cub Scout camping trip.

It is a Wagner 8 I got on ebay for $32 + $12 shipping. It is about 100 years old.

So what's the difference in cooking on a High Frame and a low frame? Does it really matter since we can regulate the flame? :thinking: Danny

Danny,
According to my Alfred Andresen book (copyright 1905) the high frame is for gas stoves and the low ring is for ordinary stoves. I'm going to assume that an "ordinary stove" would be a wood cook stove.
The book also mentions that the high gas ring is an extra 50 cents.
You could buy the complete waffle iron for $1.25 at a dealer or express shipping for $1.75.

Jim, you don't need to have one...you do plenty of other cooking to "earn" your waffles....not to mention those nice aged exotic adult libations...Doug
