What's your favorite campfire chow for those overnight or backcountry outings?
I have a new favorite that someone told me about, goes like this: Take a large green, red, or orange bell pepper..... cut the top off like a pumpkin and carve out the interior. Fill with preferred ingredients. Put pepper lid back on, wrap in foil, throw it in the cooler for cooking in the campfire later. Set in coals for 30-45 minutes. The sky is the limit on ingredients. I have done a Mex version... ref beans with cooked & seasoned ground beef + Picante + shredded cheese + diced tomatoes. Sour cream on the side. ... and a breakfast version... Roast beef hash + raw egg + shredded cheese. Really easy and so good at the campfire. I'm thinking of more combos that might be good. My alltime desert favorite was a Dutch Oven baked blueberry pie that Scratch or Crusty made one night at the claims. Damn, that was good. ![]() ![]() -------------------- /l ,[____], l---L-OlllllllO- ()_) ()_)--o-)_) BLACK SANDS MATTER! Very Happy CP Lifetime Member CP CORE TEAM Referral Code CE213 |

Crazysansman you are a man after my own heart! I've also cooked pork chops, beer can chicken, steaks, stir frys, to a whole turkey. I could only find one digital photo of my camp cooking as the rest are still on actual 35mm film ha ha. This one is at base camp on the 'all guys annual' just outside the BWCA in northern Minnesota as there is no motorized anything in that national forrest.. no one said cooking had to be primitive :^) by the way.. nice skills! loved the way you notched those logs to hold your dutch oven over the fire. Great pics also.
after it cooled all 4 of us pulled out our hip blades and went to town like lions on a poacher.. something so satisfying about that. Until the bear came.. ![]() ![]() -------------------- 1/15 FA 2nd ID, Camp Casey Korea
