Campfire cooking is one of my favorite parts of camping. Here’s a few of my favorites:

Kabobs with chicken, zucchini peppers,onion,mushrooms

Corn on the cob - I cook them in the husk after a soak in water. They come out a little charred and taste amazing.

Potatoes, garlic and onions sealed in heavy foil with too much butter. I throw it right on hot coals for a long time.

    To feed a lot, spaghetti goes the distance. I like some good brats - if frozen solid they act as an ice pack on day 1. But my favourite… what makes a good camp out , is breakfast. Eggs scrambled , lots of Vermont maple sausage, all the grease and butter then to toast and perk pot death wish sludge. Soooo good

    I’ve only made pizza this way once, halfway through a week long canoeing/camping trip. but it was amazing. Not too fancy, but delicious nonetheless. A lot of weight to carry for 3-4 days, but a drop in the bucket when you’re in a canoe. Heavy rain started just before dinner, so we used the aluminum canoe as a lean-to to protect the fire:

    Homemade tomato-based sauce dehydrated into a flaky powder and reconstituted on the day using filtered lake water

    Dehydrated mozzarella similarly reconstituted

    Store-bought, pre-made crusts

    Pepperoni

    Baked over coals on a wire rack (no direct flames)

    I used to take bread, burger meat, onions, and sweet peppers and put them all in a pie iron.

    We called it hillbilly meat pie. Honestly writing this makes me want to make one again lmao
