Put lid on with 14 coals on bottom, 16 on top and bake for about 30 minutes. After 15 min., watch coals on bottom so dish won't burn. While the dish cooks, prepare garnish. The dish is done when the cheese mixture sets and is bubbly Remove from heat and arrange garnish in rows or other attractive pattern on top of the cooked food in the oven. Present the dish. ENJOY! Historical Note: This recipe passed down from Mr. Hickman, a trapper and gold panner who had a gold claim up in Bitter Creek Canyon - north of Red River, NV. He used to tell tall tales around the campfire, especially if you could supply some "cough medicine." Mr. Hickman said that he made a living during World War 2 by hauling scrap iron from the old mines and selling it for the war effort. Sadly, he and the place are gone now.
