Thanks!

Tacos in a bag is fun.

individual bags of doritos, fritos etc.
taco meat
tomatoes
sour cream
lettuce
cheese
hot sauce

fill up the bag with whatever you want and dish it out with a spork


Dutch oven Chicken Salsa tacos

couple chicken breasts - frozen is fine
salsa
tortillas
taco fixings

cook the chicken in the salsa and shred
make tacos

taters, carrots, onions sliced to the same size, add salt and pepper, wrap in foil.....throw it in the fire...

eat when you think its done....


I usually add a steak cooked on a grill of some sort....but that is optional

thick hamburger pattie,...cut up a tater,..some onion,,..wrap it in aluminum foil and lay it on the edge of the fire. Flip it every now and then.

I realize that it's not very creative, but it's about the best hamburger you'll ever eat and the taters come out very good too.

It's really a fine meal.

Not sure if it is a favorite (darn close) but the first meal of about every trip will be grilled Costco 1/4+ pound hot dogs in their fatazz buns with mustard, onions and tomatoes.

I like stuff that you can cook in one pan...easy to make...and keeps well...
Some good German Sausage sauteed with zucchini, peppers and onion is one of my favorites....





Some good ranch beans and Chorizo is good too...I make my own beans but canned will do...
Fry the Chorizo and then add the beans...continue cooking until the beans are hot...sorry no pix...

Upper choice angus top sirloin, cut into 2 ince cubes, tossed in olive oil and a course monteral seasoning.
Cooked over open fire to med rare.

a good deer or elk chili and bannock bread

I usually pre cook and freeze chili but easy to make on camp stove

The meat veggies taters in foil is always good too

But love the bannock bread

A good bun, cook large elk hamburger medium rare topped with bacon, blue cheese and a egg cooked over easy.

When served you stick a tooth pick in the egg so the yoke runs thru the burger.

Boiling water and a Mountain House entree.

We do this every year on our family vacation. Easy to do, and tastes great.

We like to cook veggies on the grill. We've got one of those wire baskets for the grill. Cut up some peppers, onions, 'shrooms, zuchini, etc,. Throw 'em in the basket with some chicken chunks or steak junks marinated in Italian dressin, put on the fire and enjoy!

Funny y'all should ask. I gave myself the challenge the other day of making something out of a can of Kroger canned Corned Beef. It's kind of the beef version of Spam.

It finally dawned on me that it would probably respond well to a Zip Sauce. Zip sauce is wonderful stuff. It comes from Detroit. I discovered it 10 years ago.

Kim's Zippy Sauce

That's my review from 2006. Over the past 10 years, I've expanded my uses of Zip Sauce. It works great with venison steaks, and one of the family favorites is a beef round bottom roast slow baked and served in Zip Sauce.

So what I did in this case was heat a skillet and throw the whole can in along with the ingredients from the zip sauce recipe. It's all pre-cooked, so it is just a matter of heating it up enough for all the flavors to mix. I served it as a crumble, so it would get done quickly.

Slam, Bang, Done. Zip Hash.

Angus is getting together a post-graditation camp-out early next month. This will be one of the things he serves.

Shrimp Ka Bobs - Cut up some "stop light peppers" and onions in large chunks. Marinate shrimp, peppers, onions, cherry tomatoes in Italian dressing and creole seasoning. Skewer so the shrimp is sandwiched between chunks of veggies to keep shrimp moist. Cook on grate over open fire. Don't overcook!

I'm really just tagging a good thread. We are planning a camping trip in a couple of weeks.

To the OP, what kind of "camping"?

This:



Or this:

Chili Beans:

Take a large pan or dutch oven.
5 ingredients
1lb hamburger
1 large can tomatoes whole or use the diced tomatoes
1 large can(the giant size)ranch style beans
1 large onion diced
4oz chili powder
You can easily put all of these ingredients in a left over shopping bag and tie the top in a knot till your ready.
Cook the meat ground up style w/onion, drain meat and add tomatoes mashed between your fingers, add chili powder and cook till it simmers for twenty minutes. Don't over cook. This really is a good and easy meal. Prep time 10minutes. Serve w/buttered crackers, bread, or cornbread. Serves 4 hungry people. powdr

We call that a "Hobo" dinner. Add whatever meat you like or happen to have and it's on! If cooked in a pot it is "Whatchagot" stew...
