How Do You Prepare For Outdoor Campfire Cooking?
The key to great outdoor campfire cooking is preparation. Planning your meals in advance will ensure that you have all the ingredients you need, plus any utensils that the recipes call for. Plan your campfire meals by concentrating on one pot meals. This means less mess and less cleanup. Use storage bags to pack pre-measured amounts of herbs, spices and other ingredients. Onions, garlic and other vegetables can be chopped at home ahead of time and carried into camp ready to dump into the pot. Use resealable plastic containers to hold pre-measured amounts of liquids you’ll need for your meals. Take a grill grate even if you plan on cooking over an open campfire. These can be used to hold a skillet, cook burgers or support the coffee pot if you’re doing an overnight campout.
