If there is one food that defines the vision of "camping" food what would you say it is? This week I posted my video on the food that I think fits the bill. Let's see what everyone thinks is the definitive image of camping food!
What is the Quintessential Camp Food?

- Start date
Hotdogs - cheap, easy, virtually no prep and very little cleanup.

Gotta be chili for me. Whether you heat up a can or spend hours slow-cooking it from scratch in a dutch oven, there's nothing like a hot bowl of chili by the fire at the end of the day.

I don’t mess around when it comes to food. My favorite meal to summon up after getting settled in is country fried steak and mashed potatoes smothered in gravy, I don’t know what it is about it but its the best thing I‘ve come up with. Something about shaking the steak up in seasoned flour then hearing it sizzle on the flat top. Mhm too good.
Scrambled eggs with bacon, or sausage burrito: It starts the day off right!

If there is one thing that always gets cooked at camp, it's a steak. It is the ultimate camp food to cook over a fire.
For breakfast, it's going to be home-ground sausage and eggs with grits.

It goes by a lot of names but Hunters Breakfast is what we call it. Diced potatoes fried with chopped sausages until hot and brown. Break in some eggs, salt and pepper and stir it all together, then last minute throw in some cheese and toss until melted. Top with your sauce of choice and serve with lots of hot, rich coffee. A real "stick to your ribs" way to start the day.

Not the first time. same as bbq ha ha. Hell we have cooked a complete sunday turkey dinner over open flame before, in the winter! Hauled it all in on snowmobile and set'r up.
Any time my wife and I went camping, it was always Cheeseburger Hamburger Helper for lunch and a steak cooked over the campfire with baked potato for dinner.
When I was younger, Dinty Moore Beef stew was my go to, now that I am older, rib eye steak and baked potato cooked over the camp fire is my goto.

We almost always do some sort of protein, steak, chops or smoked sausages with green beans and potatoes in cast iron pan. Hearty and hot before bed time. Sleep like a bear.
