if you want a twist to the everyday hot dog, do Spider Dogs.

Cut a hot dog weenie about a third of the way from the ends twice. on each end. Then you roast them on a stick. When they start to curl up on the ends, they are done.

Potato Packs

Cut two each of foil for each serving, put in for each serving.

Slice potatoes thin

Cut up mushrooms

Cut up onions

Salt

Pepper

Lots of Butter

Sometimes when I am in a hurry I precook potatoes in Microwave

Wrap up in second piece of foil, put on coals when burned down, cook about 40 minutes or shorter if potatoes are precooked.

Enjoy!

The recipie is for a beef stew type dish

Ingredients:

chopped carrots, potatoes, onions, celery,

ground beef/veggie burgers torn into pieces (can do with hamburger patties too)

can of tomatoe sauce

salt and pepper

tabasco sauce

small amount of water

While one person preps the food have another start the camp fire

Take two good sized pieces of aluminum foil (or 1 long piece folded in half).

Inside of it you will place the ingredients that you plan to eat. Be sure to add enough tomotoe sauce to add taste (add just a smidge of water, not much is needed). Wrap the food in the aluminum foil (boat shaped, ball shaped, etc), feel free to get creative as it will help to identify yours later.

Place foil covered food in the fire pit (towards the outsides and under logs work well as they have the heat and accessability). Check on them after 20-25 minutes. If need more heat consider moving them. The average time too cook the food in the fire takes between 45-60 minutes. Just remember to check on them so that they do not get burned.

Camp Fire Potatos

small red potatos

garlic salt

pepper

butter

aluminum foil

Cut the potatos in 1/4 inch slices. Place the potatos on a sheet of aluminum foil. Sprinkle with pepper and garlic salt and toss. Add chunks of butter. Place a second sheet of aluminum foil over the top of the potatos and fold the edges of the aluminum foil to seal tightly. Cook over your campfire until tender (30-45 minutes?). Enjoy. Great as a side dish with those grilled steaks!

More suggestions here, mostly from my Mom whom I copy! We would always do some pre-cooking before camping and then there'd only be part of the meal to make which would be something fast. Like : 1) make meatballs & sauce at home, freeze them until that night, then just cook the pasta at the site & grab a loaf of french bread and dinner was done. Or 2) We would also do the same with the hamburger/spices/tomato sauce for American chop suey. And 3) cook cut up boneless chicken breast in gravy and freeze. Then we'd just make a couple boxes of stuffing mix and some vegetables and voila.

This is not a recipe but a suggestion. We just bought a Kitchen Kettle made by Presto. It is a 6 quart electric pot with a nonstick surface inside and out. It can be used to steam, boil, or fry. It comes with a steamer/fryer basket. We have been testing it out this past week and so far it works wonderfully. It only cost us $22.00 at Wal-Mart. We have made pasta, instant mashed potatos, and chili in it. So far so good. We haven't tried steaming or deep frying anything yet. It is easy to clean out with the nonstick surface which is a must in our popup camper. We highly recommend it.

This isn't a slow cooker recipe, but my family loves this... We usually cook with our little coleman stove- with a cast iron frypan-

Buy a box of *falafel mix*,I get it in the nature food section of my store, or international,- it's a dry mix in a box, you add about 1 cup water to it in a large ziploc, knead the dough, let it set for about 5 minutes to set up, while it's setting, heat up about 1/2 inch of oil in pan, then just scoop tablespoons into the oil, cook on each side, turning once for about 1- 2 minutes each, place on paper towels plate to drain and cool,and serve with slices of (our favorite) goat cheese- or you can use some mozzarella slices....

the whole batch takes about 10 -15 minutes, and it's our favorite tent camping food!(Along with good old hotdogs...)

We also have a roast recipe. We place carrots, potato slices, and onion slices in the bottom of the crockpot. We then place the roast ontop of these items. Pour a can of beef broth over the ingredients. Cook on low 8-10 hours.

Place a beef roast in the crockpot and pour a can of coke over it! Let it go all day, and it will be ready to eat plain or on buns at the end of a busy day at the parks! I like to add some sliced onion too!

I don't mind copying and pasting from DIS.  Do you want one recipe per post, or fit as many in a post as possible with proper spacing?

oh hell, pull up your post count, I don't care!

In that case...  :o

How big and at what resolution does it need to be?  ;D

Its not the size that matters, it's how you use it.

I think more girls should be aware of that. Sure would have helped me in high school.

Pointless, off-topic conversation.  And here we are trying to get real answers from helpful posters.  :o

;D

Well aren't I a silly site administrator.

It turns out to help a LOT if you allow registered members to view the arrows.

This internets thing is hard. You guys don't even know how many tubes I had to install to get this thing cobbled together. :o

Okay, I just laughed so hard that I started coughing.  ;D

My monitor is a 15" w/ resolution set at 1280 X 800, and I'm not seeing any arrows. 

How big and at what resolution does it need to be?  :o

Yay!

Yay!

Hello!  :)

I don't see any arrows, either.  I must be blind...

Same here!

I really like the look of this place.  Plus it's all shiny and new.  :)
