Awesome Campfire Cooking - Bacon Fried Apples, Banana Boats + MORE!

in #food7 years ago

Hello Steemers (is that what we are called?),

as much as i love cooking and camping, i have been trying my best to learn "camping friendly" meals over the last two years in an effort to learn the basics of campfire cooking. I want to be the dad who can cook up some seriously amazing food for his family when we go camping ( i don't have kids, yet, just planning ahead).

Its so weird, i have literally NEVER used a grill, with coal or propane, but have been cooking with the coals of hardwood trees in the woods dozens of times in my lifetime.

Here are a few pictures of things i have cooked, outdoors over a campfire over the past few years:

Bacon wrapped cinnamon roll:

Absolutley amazing. You gotta try these at home for a sweet and savory treat!!

Breakfast Banana Boat:

Banana, left in the peel, sliced lengthwise, add in a packet of hot cocoa powder and a splash of whiskey. Cooked slowly over coals for 5 - 10 minutes until banana becomes soft.

Apple and trail mix infused flat bread:

Cooked slow over coals in a frying pan. Burnt it a little, but still the taste was great!

Last but certainly not least... a steak

Lastly, as the title indicated, the BACON FRIED APPLES:

Maybe not the most appealing photo... but it was great. Just cooked 2 slices of bacon, cooked over coals in a frying pan, used the grease to cook up the apple, diced medium, then crumbled the bacon up and tossed it in as well. Coated with cinnamon to add a little extra flavor. It was an amazing idea I got from a friend, it definitely didn't disappoint.

Here is a link to the video of me cooking it up:

Aside from those cool recipes, i am open to any suggestions you all may have. What food have you enjoyed around a campfire? Any super cool smore recipes out there?

Well, I hope this may encourage someone to get outdoors and safely try some campfire cooking! Its a great time to do solo or to bring the family out and enjoy each others company.

Til next time,
