    Default Toaster bags?

    Has anybody tried these things?
    they're just a little washable bag from JML that you put say steak, burgers, cheese toasties into it then pop it in your toaster.
    i'm wondering if these things would do well suspended over a camp fire? not sure about open flame however...

    anybody tried them? i'm going to grab some this weekend and give em a test run.

    I've used some similar in the past. You can get all sorts of things like this now, much like non stick silicon baking sheets. I wouldn't think about putting them near the kind of heat that a open fire will be throwing out though. Are the 3M ones made of foil or something? If not they'll melt faster than a snowflake in hell.

    Hi Melonfish,

    I have tried the on a bakestone and they worked but f you are experimenting there are a load of good clones out there. Not sure where I got them but I would check out the pound shop at Birchwood, or home bargins, or pound world on the high street I think it must have been one of them.

    Spent 5 years working in birchwood myself...

    Anyway, back to the original question; Aldi do them, as do instore, etc. I would have thought that if you put them in a dry skillet you would be fine on a wood fire but I wouldn't try them directly over a flame.
    Stop talking about it; get on with it.
