Pizza Mountain Pie and Other Variations
Ingredients:
two pieces of bread
pizza sauce
mozzarella cheese
pepperoni or other pizza toppings.
Directions: Butter each piece of bread on one side. Place one piece of bread in one half of the cooker with the buttered side out. Place the sauce, cheese, and other goodies in the middle of the bread and place the second piece of bread over the top, buttered side out. Now clamp the cooker together and lock it. Place the cooker in the hot coals and rotate when you think one side is done.
If you don't feel like pizza, fill with ham and cheese and you get a hot Ham and Cheese Mountain Pie. You can also put peanut butter, marshmallow (cut up in pieces or whole), add a section of a Hershey Bar on top of the bread and you have a yummy dessert.
EASY CAMPFIRE VEGGIE MIX
7 large fresh crisp carrots, peeled and chopped
5 large potatoes, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup pure butter
salt and pepper to taste
Lay out veggies on a large piece of tin foil paper. Cut 6 med. thick slices of butter and lay over veggies. Add salt and pepper.
Close foil paper so no openings show. Cook over a low camp fire for 10 minutes.
Shake lightly and serve.
Serves 5 small servings.
CAMPFIRE PIZZA
Pie irons
Campfire
Bread, 2 slices per pizza
Butter
Pizza sauce
Mozzarella cheese, shredded
Your favorite pizza toppings: pepperoni, sausage, black olives, green peppers, mushrooms, etc.
Build campfire and heat pie iron in fire. Butter bread on outside. Spread small amount of pizza sauce on bread. Sprinkle cheese on top of sauce and add desired toppings. BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVER FILL. Top with second slice of bread with outside buttered. Spray pie irons with Pam and place pizza in pie iron, butter sides out. Close iron and cook over fire. Watch carefully, they cook fast and burn easily.
CAMPFIRE QUICKIE
6 hamburger patties
6 potatoes, peeled and quartered
6 carrots, sliced
6 stalks celery
3 onions, halved
1 can cream of celery soup
Aluminum foil
On large piece of foil, place 1 hamburger, 1 potato, 1 carrot, 1 celery, 1 onion, and 3 tablespoons soup. Fold over foil and seal edges. Punch hole in top and place in hot coals of campfire. Ready in about 20 to 30 minutes.
DUTCH OVEN CAMPFIRE COBBLER
3 cans fruit pie mix (peach, cherry or blackberry)
2 1/2 c. Bisquick mixed with 1/2 c. milk + 2 tbsp. butter, melted
10 servings.
Prepare good hot bed of charcoal or campfire embers.
Lightly butter Dutch oven.
Put fruit pie mix in oven. Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon. Dot fruit with 6 spoons of butter. Spoon mixed Bisquick over fruit.
Place Dutch oven directly on bed of coals with hot coals on top of lid. Bake 20 minutes. Do not remove lid until ready to serve. (NOTE: Great with vanilla ice cream if available.)
wrap biscuit(s) dough (pop open kind) around a broom size pole, cook over fire, then remove and stuff with favorite filling:
scrambled eggs, honey, jam, smoked sausages.
Also fry corned beef hash, add eggs to scramble altogether, lay out on flour tortillas, add salsa, rollup for a great breakfast burrito.
you can scoop cake mix, cinnamon bun dough, cookie dough or anything like that into a hollowed orange peel, wrap it in foil and throw it onto the fire!
cast iron cooker dump cake.
Take cast iron dutch oven and preheat over white charcol coals.
Mix yellow or white cake mix with any canned fruit that has sweeten juice together and pour into oven. We have used peaches, pears, fruit cocktail, etc.. Add a stickof oleo or butter.
Cover with lid
place 10 to 12 coals on top of lid and another ten or so under dutch oven, cook for 20 to 30 minutes, check after 20 till top is golden brown and has risen and is springy to the finger punch.
taste test and serve if done. Serves 10 adults or a hungry 8 boy scout patrol.
Camp Doughnuts
You will need:
Ready made biscuits in the tube.
Cinnamon
Granulated Sugar
Powdered Sugar
Vegetable Oil
Skillet
This works best when cooked on a camp stove, because it is easier to control the heat. Fill your skillet about halfway with oil and heat it till it sizzles when dough is dropped in.
Open your biscuit tube, seperate the biscuits and cut each into 4 quarters.
Drop biscut dough into oil and cook until brown on both sides and biscuits float.
With a slotted spoon remove biscuits from oil, drain on paper towels for a few seconds.
Roll fried biscuits in your favorite coating and enjoy.
These are terrific!
I remember when I was younger my mom used to make meatballs and sauce, then we would buy rolls and pre-shredded mozzarella cheese and one night for dinner we would have meatball subs, just wrap in 3 layers of foil and place on the outer edges of the fire for about 20 min turning around (not over) after about 10 min. they taste so different when warmed by the fire they are delicious.
A campfire treat
get some chocolate and split a banana put chocolate into the banana
(keep skin on) wrap in foil and cook over campfire.
delicious
My sons always make their "river potatoes". Extra heavy duty foil pack of thinly sliced potatoes, layered with cheese and onions. We save a little bacon or bacon grease from breakfast to add to the potatoes also.
The kids never get tired of the standard camp fare of hot dogs and pie iron sandwiches, but sometimes I need a civilized meal. God bless Reynolds wrap! Stir up a package of stove top stuffing. Foil packets with a handful of stuffing, a chicken cutlet pressed down on top of it, sliced onions, mushrooms and a handful of peas, and couple of tablespoons of cream of mushroom soup on top. Seal it up, cook it on a hot grill for about 20 minutes, and you're done. Check the Reynolds website; they have a million foil packet recipes. Have a great summer!
The best that we have found is making omolettes (sp? ~ sorry) in a cast iron fry pan over an open fire. If you have never done that, you will be amazed at the flavor it has. Just add you favorite ingredients and you will not be disappointed!
Sense no one mentioned it I'll add toast. Butter bread on both sides and grill both sides. Great with whatever else you fix.
we like a egg mix
frozen hash browns
onion
green chili's
celery
ham or spam
6 or more eggs
cook every thing add eggs mix =breakfast in one pan
can be put in flour tortillas add hot sauce
korkie
soup, chili,popcorn, salmon(fish), rosato, eggs, rice, beans, salad. Think stuff that you use a pot for.
I have a snack recipe that we take camping all the time. It is really good and the kids love it, so do the adults.
1 Box of Chex cereal
1 sm. bag of Choc Chips
1 box of confectionate sugar
Melt the choc chips in pan with 1/2 stick of butter, once melted add the cereal until all is coated in choc. Then in large bowl pour the sugar, then pour the choc covered cereal into the sugar mix well until all cereal is coated. Let sit on wax paper until cooled. Then place is gallon zip lock bag and go.
There is also another dish that I do that is nice for breakfast and only takes a few minutes to cook. My mother used to make this all the time.
In a casserole dish combine 6 eggs, 1/2 pound of broken precooked bacon, sliced ham to your liking, cheddar cheese to your liking, peppers, onion, and top with biscuits. Bake on 325 for 20 minutes and this is a great breakfast, this can also be mase a day ahead of time and add your eggs when you are ready to bake.
