What People in California BBQ? That is something I'd like to see! I'll add something I make all the time, and its very cheap and well you can cook them anywhere. Simple, bean buritos. I just buy a can of fat free refried beans (since I am more health conscious these days), a jar of my favorite corn salsa, cheese and tortillas. Heat the tortilla up first, and perhaps get it a bit moist, then toss in the fixings and cook. You can wrap in foil if you are cooking it over the flame to protect it from being burned. Easy, cooks in under a minute usually, and they are good. Mexican food is some of the best food out there. This stuff is super cheap, comes in a can the rest you can carry with you sealed. It is very light weight, and if you wanted to you could even bring eggs and sausage and make breakfast burritos in the morning. You just need to toss like six beaten eggs in a thermos, and a few sausage links in a small portable cooler and you can have breakfast with you. BBQ, that is a whole other subject for me, since the American Royal BBQ is held like a mile from my home, and my family have friends that will smoke and grill like 60k worth of food in one weekend. They don't joke around, and some of the best pulled pork I have ever had. Last edited by tlarkin; 03-31-2008 at 09:13 PM. | |

| Steve my intent with this thread was to get a group of recipes from everyone, cull through them and then contact the owners of those recipes for a bit more in depth info. Now you know as well as I do often the stories and memories behind the meal are far more important and fun to read than the recipes. I had just thought with the wide diversity of experiences our group here has I could do up a good read that allof us could enjoy!

| Here is a quick and easy camp recipe. Can be a side dish or used as a dip. Kurt Gowdy Beans Ingredients 2 cans Ranch style beans 1 can of Pork and beans 1lb of breakfast sausage pan variety 1 medium onion chopped Spices to taste In a large pot melt butter add onions and blanch in hot butter with a little salt, Brown breakfast sausage with onions. When the sausage and onion is cooked add beans and bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer. Simmer 15 to 30 minutes to let flavors blend. Serve. This is great for sittin' on the stove and using it as a dip with chips or......HHHHHmmmmmmm ladel over fresh hot corn bread for a real feast!!!!  This a dish that we used to cook up when a bunch of us would go deer hunting in south Texas. We would all meet up at a cousin's ranch and 10 of us would stack into a pop up tent camper. We would hunt deer during the day and hunt rabbits at night. On the first night there we would fire up the coleman stove and put on a big double pot of Kurt Gowdy beans. Then we would go hunt some rabbits. Never took us long to get enough rabbits for supper so we would clean and fry the rabbits up like chicken and munch on the Kurt Gowdy beans before, during and after the rabbit. One large double recipe would usually last us two days. Brings back some great memories of good friends and good times.

| ezearln I'll give you a couple of my favorites. The first is Philly Cheesesteak w/ venison. Take one backstrap from the deer you just happened to shoot that morning, (or half if there aren't many of you in camp) and slice it into very thin, small strips. Throw this into a hot skillet with a healthy portion of chopped onions and peppers, some salt and pepper and sautee until done. Then split open a loaf of French bread and put the venison mixture on the bread with lots of Swiss cheese. Wrap it in foil and place it in the coals just long enough to toast the bread and melt the cheese. The second recipe is called Dogfood (don't ask, and earl, you might want to change the name should you decide to include this recipe). Put three or four cans of pork 'n' beans in a dutch oven and fix them up like you would baked beans. For me its onion, BBQ sauce, brown sugar, molasses, and mustard. Then take a can of store bought biscuits, or make your own, and lay on top of the beans. For a little heartier meal you can add hamburger or another type of meat. Place the dutch oven in the coals and make sure you get plenty on top. Once the biscuits are done you'll have a great camp meal.

| smoked hamhocks and pinto beans with green hot peppers lots of onions curry powder garlic fresh and powder bazil oregeno mustard a touch of cumin cook in dutch oven when ready heat up your tortilla's on the open grill! I use to do all of this by digging 2 connected pits one for burning extra wood and for the actual cooking. living in the desert at the time I burned masquette wood which is as common there as maple is in the north east! amazing the meals you can make with a shovel and dutch oven |

| Senior Member  | i always remember taking some cokes <for us kids> and beer for my dad and his friends and going to my grandpas land in the rural north Ga Mountains we had a spot that we all camped at <my family> and there was a fire pit , tree stumps for sitting and it was right next to a slow moving part of the stream . good for fishing and jumping in when you where hot. we would always start by getting up fire wood for the night and putting up tents <military surplus> then we would have a MRE <meal ready to eat> for lunch . then after some serious playing by us kids , my dad would wrap potato's with butter and s&p in tin foil with onions and red peppers from my grand dads garden then he would bacon wrap some peppers with bacon and stick them through with a nice green branch , then what ever the meat was <rainbow trout we caught> or something we brought i remember it was always simply prepared and tasted fantastic! sometimes we would start a big campfire pot boiling with potatoes, onions , bay leaf , chunks of deer meat ,flour and suddenly this special brown gravy was made and all these years i don't know how my dad made it and i will never know <rest his soul> but i will continue to try and master the brown venison gravy!!!

| I would have to say my 2 most memorable "camp" dishes didnt take place in a camp but instead on a boat. First, is Tuna. During a deep sea fishing trip off of Hawaii I managed to reel in the first fish and it was a yellow fin tuna. The guide slapped it down on the table and carved out a big chunk. He thin sliced it up and served it with a little wasabi. The best sushi I ever had. lol not much of a recipe but... Second is fishing off of Capri island in Italy. We caught several kinds of fish and grilled them with some fresh picked rosemary and thyme we had gathered from a garden that morning. We also had some grilled veggies we had picked that morning. The guy we with was ex-Navy who had moved there and bought into a vineyard. So needless to say we also had a few bottle of wine from his vineyard and some lemoncello he makes also. One of the best meals ever. I will try to remember some good recipes that I have used in the past so you can put them in but honestly most of the camp cookin I have done has been very simple.

| Oh boy...fresh fish, with freshly cut seasonings and freshly picked vegetables sure does sound good right now. Great outdoor meal idea! Wow, it's dinner time. Last fall we enjoyed a surplus of fresh halibut, from a friend's fishing trip to Alaska. Each bite was delicious and much appreciated, thanks to having the fish and my wife's superb cooking abilities. I'm looking forward to seeing the recipes you used on the fish, if you're able to locate them...
