Gonna start a thread asking for your favorite camp food/recipes to share with the rest of us, thinking I may put some of them together in a “cookbook” type format .pdf

We all know @Michael and his cold hotdogs and tortillas, but what have you got and how do you prepare it?

My primary camp food is simple. Some ground beef (preferably 93/7) put it some minced onion, garlic, peppers (I grow thai chilis that are amazing and add a spicy kick, but serranos work as well), black pepper and sea salt. Mix well. press into 1/2 lb patties and grill em up. A thick slice of cheese leted over the top on a potato bun.

No need for ketchup, mustard or any other condiments.

I can vouch for k12s burgers. They are f-ing delicious!

How long does the green sauce stay good once you get it in the bottle?

My go to is always sausage, peppered, and onions on the cast iron. My girlfriend is incredible(ly odd) and doesn't like pork sausage, so I've switched over to chicken sausage and I must say, I love it a little bit better

Awesome guys! I’m going to make a simple, yet effective cookbook after the first of the year -

It’s just going to be a fun .PDF to save on your phones, and I’ll credit y’all’s call tags if you’re cool with that! (Maybe hyperlink to your profile!)

i'll add! Try roasting tomatoes and jalapeño on your skottle, lightly tossed in olive oil, remove jalapeño seeds, or don't depending on your level of spiciness! Roast until skins char and toss in a small handful of pine nuts, toast seeds for a few seconds. add all ingredients to your blender. once blended, pour into your saucepan, add a big pinch of garlic, salt, pepper, oregano and chopped fresh basil. slowly adding heat, add cream. cream is dependent on the amount of veggies you roast, as you're bringing your tomato sauce to simmer, butter your slices of fresh San Francisco sour dough, add some mozzarella between the two and stuff in your panini maker (bougie, i know, but well worth it :tearsofjoy:) or toss it back on the skottle to toast. and there you have it, delish grilled cheese and spicy, pesto tomato soup!!

Laganophake, Roman lentil & red wine stew.

Always the first night meal. Make at home, freeze in a tupperware the size of my pot, that way it's part of the ice in my cooler. It's pre-made, so doesn't matter if you get to camp late. My kids and wife loved it camping. Always good and easy for the first night out.

And, you know, the Roman Empire, camping from 27BC to 476AD...

For a dutch oven we really like this one. It uses mostly shelf stable ingredients that are easy to carry to camp and tastes really good. Grab some instant mashed potatoes and life is good. I do have a video for this recipe up on my channel if you want to see the cook that I will link below.

Recipe 8 oz bison or lean ground beef
1 teaspoon granulated onion
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes 1
4 saltine crackers crushed
1/4 cup milk

1 jar of beef gravy
One 4 oz can mushroom pieces
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste

Mix the first 5 ingredients together and form into 4 mini meatloafs then place in greased dutch oven. Mix the remaining 5 ingredients together and pour over the meatloaves. Cook at 350 for about an hour until the burger is cooked through. We serve over instant mashed potatoes.
