Go to your local grocery store and buy a teflon coated pie or cake pan for about $6. Just don't get them too hot and they'll last quite a long time. Buy 2 and they'll nest inside one another and you can put them together with a couple paper clips and you are on your way to making some good backcountry biscuits.

I can't think of any trip I've ever taken anywhere at anytime that I found myself wanting a frying pan while backpacking...

Dan:

Ocasionally I am lucky enough to catch a trout and I like to poach it in 1/4" water in a frying pan. Mine is steel by MSR. I'm looking for one that's made of titanium because it would be lighter.

I just bought a 9 in (i think) at wall mart for about 3.00 the cheapest one they have. it is teflon coated and works great on low heat. I don't buy expensive pans because the people living with me will sooner than later burn them to a crisp. eek

GSI Pinnacle Ultralight. I have the 8 3/4" frypan and, along with a MSR WindPro, it is perfect for backcountry trout!

Kevin:

My wife (who is a great cook) tells me that "Poaching" is the word that chefs use for boiling in a 1/4" of water. It works great specially on cut throats. I cut the fish in half down the middle of the spine and boil each slab of meat in the water with a little salt & pepper. Just wait until the meat turns from pink to white and it's done. It just takes a couple of minutes on each side. Maybe add another 30 seconds to ensure that the meat gets cooked in the middle.

No need to skin trout because the skin falls right off. I just "poached" a kokanee salmon and had to skin it before I cooked it. The skin on the salmon is a lot thicker than that on a trout. Also the bones are harder to remove on a salmon. They come out pretty easy on a trout.

I had a good friend teach me another way to cook my fish in the back-country. Just pack some heavy duty aluminum foil and seasoning salt and ceyanne pepper if you like the spice. Clean the fish, season it, and wrap in the foil. Get a fire started and lay the fish on some hot coals at the edge of the fire, flip in 6-12 minutes depending on fish size and heat intensity. When finished, eat right fromt he foil.....makes for a good meal with some Idahoan loaded instant potatoes.
