Biscuits on a Stick.

Cowboys on the range cooking for themselves used green wood sticks to cook chunks of meat and biscuits over a campfire.

Sodium Bicarbonate {baking soda} was commercially produced in America from 1846. After that time, a cowboy's provisions usually included a sack of flour, a little salt; baking soda, bacon, lard and coffee.

With a little liquid, approximately 1/3 cup liquid to 1 cup flour with a hunk of lard cut in, he could mix up a biscuit dough, wrap it around a stick and hold it over a fire until cooked.
