Cooking over and in the fire

[wagonman76]

Even though our Sunline has all the amenities on reserve, we would rather rough it when possible and cook over or in the fire.

Hobo dinner is what I've heard it called. Put in cut up potato, carrots, corn, green beans, whatever other veggies you like. I like it loaded up with butter and cheese. Wrap it real good in tinfoil and put it in the fire coals for awhile to cook it.

Lots of times we also just wrap potatoes in foil and bake them in the fire coals for awhile till they're good and done. Then take them out and load them up with butter and cheese.

One way to cook over the fire if you don't have a grate is put a long piece of steel like your stabilizer wrench or awning wrench over the fire ring, then set the pan using that and one side of the fire ring. Try to keep the fire in that area for best results of course.

Can anything beat campfire charred baked potato's wrapped in foil and cooked in the coals for 40 minutes or so?
Except breakfast cooked over the fire with REAL bacon not the....bird variety. LOVE to toast the toast over the fire...Hmmm..smoked toast!

Campfire cooking has always been a favorite of ours! I think we actually eat better when we are camping because we enjoy cooking. Natures way of seasoning food just right with that smoke.

My favorite is a breakfast of Bacon and Eggs cooked over an open fire in the morning with a good cup of coffee. Can't beat it.

I like it so much I am thinking about putting a fire ring in my yard for those "home" weekends.......
