INTRODUCTION

One of the best ways to connect to nature, whether you’re camping in the woods or relaxing in your backyard, is to cook your meal over a crackling fire. As you look out at the trees in front of you, the smell of smoke and cooking cheese and bread will be sure to warm your heart after a long day adventuring, exploring, and observing. In The New Campfire Cookbook: Pie Iron Sandwiches and Kebabs, you will find recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and everything in between, full of delicious ingredients that you can prep, freeze, pack, and eat whenever you feel hungry. In this book, you will find stress-free, delicious, fun, and filling foods for any meal or appetite. Not only will you see delicious recipes for sandwiches, but also skewers, kebabs, and sauces. Enjoy flipping through over 100 options, choosing your favorites, and when it comes time to build that campfire, use the following handy helpful tips to keep your campfire cooking easy.

TIPS FOR COOKING AT CAMP

Remember to read through your chosen recipes beforehand and plan ahead for ways to make your life easier if you’re cooking away from home.

• Pre-mix your dry ingredients, fillings, and spices and store them in labeled zippered plastic bags or airtight containers.

• Note which recipes have make-at-home options and prepare and pack those ahead of time.

• Buy shredded or sliced vegetables and cheese so you don’t have to do that prepping yourself.

• Create a list of additional food items you might need for making pie iron sandwiches, kebabs, or sauces, like cooking spray, bread, or skewers.

• Finally, review the Camp Cooking Tools You Might Need checklist to be sure you’ve packed all the cooking and safety items you might need.

CAMP COOKING TOOLS YOU MIGHT NEED

paper goods (paper towels, napkins)

dish cloths and towels

tableware— silverware, plates, bowls, and cups

a first-aid kit

leather gloves/oven mitts/potholders

a whisk

sharp knives

a long, metal spatula

long, metal tongs

a long, metal meat fork

measuring cups and spoons

a can opener

a pair of scissors

a long lighter and matches

a digital meat thermometer

propane or charcoal

dry wood, kindling wood, newspaper, and fire starters

heavy-duty foil and foil pans

a baking sheet

skewers

a pie iron

Above all, stay flexible and have fun. If you forgot something, you can improvise without worry! Pie iron meals can easily be turned into foil pack or skillet meals and seasonings and toppings can be adjusted based on what you have available. Your pie iron sandwiches can be as much as an adventure as the trip itself.

BUILDING THE PERFECT COOKING FIRE

First things first: you’ll only get a nice cooking fire if you use the right kind of firewood. Use split logs since they produce the best heat and are easiest to ignite. Hard woods such as maple, walnut, oak, or apple are best; they burn slowly and produce wonderful cooking coals.

Pile up tinder in the cooking area; light with a match or lighter. When the tinder is burning well, place kindling loosely on top, adding more as needed. Once the kindling is burning nicely, carefully add split firewood, teepee-style, over the burning kindling.

When the flames die down, white hot coals remain. Use a metal fire poker or long stick to distribute the coals for cooking, as needed.

CAMPFIRE COOKING BASICS

Whatever method of cooking you choose—grill, foil, pie iron, skewer—remember to grease it before cooking. If camping with kids, adult supervision is essential! Only a few people can safely cook around a campfire at once, so campers should take turns, be nice, and avoid poking or chasing anyone with sharpened sticks or flaming marshmallows.

Foil Cooking

Heavy-duty foil is a camper’s best friend. It has multiple uses and makes for easy clean-up. Foil packs work best on a two-inch bed of coals and will heat up quickly. You can use a few different types of foil packs. Remember that it is better to use too much foil than too little. Watch for steam and use potholders or oven mitts and long tongs to handle foil packs. Place them on baking sheets to move to and from your campfire.

Food wrapped in airtight foil packs will be steamed, not toasted or crunchy. For crisp foods, make and bake food in open foil pans. Make an open baking pan by using a double layer of heavy-duty foil molded over an upside-down pan of your choice. Leave extra length at all edges, fold them over, and crimp well for strength. You can also make a griddle for sautéing or frying foods over a campfire by covering a wire rack, grate, or grill with a double layer of heavy-duty foil. In this book, look for the foil symbol by a recipe’s name–this indicates that foil is the best cooking method.

CAMPFIRE SAFETY TIPS AND TRICKS

• Make sure it is legal to build a fire in your location.

• Use a fire pit, if available. Otherwise, build your fire on rock or dirt and construct a U-shaped perimeter with large rocks.

• Build your fire at least 8' away from flammable objects.

• Never use gas or kerosene on a fire as they pose a serious risk of explosion.

• Never leave a fire unattended.

• Don’t build a fire if it’s windy. Sparks can cause unintended fires.

• Protect hands with leather gloves or heavy oven mitts and use long tongs to prevent burns.

• Fill a bucket with water and keep it near the fire to douse flare-ups.

• Extinguish your fire by dousing it with plenty of water. Be sure all the coals, embers, and wood are wet and cool.

• If you don’t have access to water, smother the fire with sand or dirt to extinguish it. You should still be sure all the coals, embers, and wood are completely cool.

FOIL PACK TECHNIQUES

FLAT PACKS work best for cooking meat, fish, and foods that need less steam and more browning.

TENT PACKS are best for cooking vegetables, fruits, and combination packs that need more steam and less browning.

TWO-HANDLED PACKS
