Try These Three Recipes on Your Next Camping Trip
The one thing I like more than anything about camping is cooking over an open flame. So do most campers. I love my Dutch oven, and so should you. If you don’t have one, you need to get one, especially if you’re an avid camper.
Be sure to get a 12-inch oven that’s been pre-seasoned. If you’ve never used one, don’t worry. You’ll get instructions on how to use it. All you need are the recipes, and that’s where I can help. Here are 3 to start with:
BAKED BEANS 1 pound sliced bacon 3/4 cup ketchup 1 cup diced onion 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 2 cloves crushed garlic 1 1/2 cups brown sugar 1/4 cup diced green pepper 2 20-ounce cans pork and beans With 12 coals on top and 12 on bottom, cook bacon. Drain grease. Add onion, garlic, and pepper. Saute 5 minutes. Combine ketchup, Worcestershire, and brown sugar. Mix together and add beans. Cook 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally.
CHUCK WAGON BREAKFAST 2 pounds ground seasoned sausage or bacon 1/4 medium onion, diced 1 garlic clove, chopped 1 pound pre-cubed cooked ham 1 2-pound package cubed has browns 18 eggs 1/2 cup milk seasonings to taste With 12 coals on top and 12 on bottom, add sausage or sliced bacon. When meat is cooked, drain all grease. Add onion and garlic and saute for 4 minutes. Add ham and hash browns, cover, and cook until hash browns are done, stirring occasionally. In a separate bowl, whip eggs and milk. Add egg mixture to oven, stirring into meat, add seasonings, cover, and cook until eggs are done, stirring occasionally.
CHICKEN AND RICE 1 pound bacon 4-5 skinless, boneless chicken breasts 2 cups water 1 10-ounce can chicken broth 1/4 cup diced onion 1 10-ounce can creamy mushroom soup 1 diced garlic clove 1 envelope dry onion soup mix 1 1/2 cups brown rice seasonings to taste With 12 coals on top and 10 coals on bottom, cook bacon until done. Drain grease. Add chicken, onion, and garlic. Lightly brown chicken. Add all other ingredients, blend together, cover, and allow to cook for 30 minutes. Remove lid, stir, cover, and cook for approximately 15 more minutes until rice and chicken are done.
