Pie Iron dinners are the absolute best. We tend to prefer...
Pie Iron pizzas:
********************
2 slices of bread
Butter
Pizza Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese
Add'l Toppings (I like pepperoni and green peppers)
Now just butter each slice of bread on one side (like you're making a grilled cheese), and place the slices, buttered side down on each side of the pie iron. Stack your sauce, toppings, and cheese on one side. Extra cheese means extra gooey! Cook over fire until cheese is melted.
Pie Iron S'Mores
***********************
CRUST OPTIONS:
Bread, Muffin Mix, or Cookie Dough
FILLING OPTIONS:
Chocolate bar, marshmallows, creamy peanut butter
Now just take your "crust" ingredient, place on either side of pie iron plate. Make sure that if you use cookie dough, that you make it thick enough to hold filling.
If you're using muffin mix, toast that over the fire to get it cooked a bit before adding filling. Now add filling and cook until marshmallow is gooey (and make sure the cookie dough gets done). Voila! A rich and decadent dessert!
Man, the cookie dough with peanut butter is the best! Yummmm. Just takes a while to cook, so have patience.
I HEART PIE IRONS! If you don't have any yet, visit your local outdoor/camping/nature store. They don't cost too much, and are worth the cost!
Delicious camping experience!

Usually towards the end of your camping stay you invite your camping neighbors over for a hobo stew. Everyone brings one item to add to the stew, which is cooked in a lard can over an open fire. It only takes an hour or so to cook everthing!
Items that people can bring are:
Potatoes
Carrots
Corn(canned and on the cob)
Cabbage
Sausage(polish, Kielbasa, Smoke-y-links)
Green Beans
Corned Beef
Onions
and any other item you think that may be good boiled!
Put all of the ingredients in the lard can, add water to cover and place over fire and cook until all ingredients are done!
YUMMMY!

Then, for desert, SMORES. Take 2 graham crackers, cook a marshmallow until it's nice and gooey, break off 2 pieces of any milk chocolate bar and stuff both in between 2 graham crackers. The Marshmallow makes the chocolate melt.
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

I have my own secret recipe for making burgers, but they're even better when cooked over the fire. I make up a batch and then freeze them before I go camping so they don't go bad after a day or two in the cooler. Then I place however many burgers I want to cook in a campfire griller. Then I place the griller over a low burning fire and let the heat do the work. It usually takes over an hour, but it is so worth it. The slow-cooking seals in all the juices and allows the burgers to soak up all that smoky goodness.
Now I want to go camping!

Wrap seasoned sliced potatoes, carrots, ground beef patty (or another meat of your choice such as smoked sausage or steak), onion slices, mushrooms, etc..... in foil and place in the fire until done. You may also add butter for a richer flavor. So delish!!!!!

M$there's really not much to it (though some people won't try) you just take your steak and bury it in the coal of the fire (not in the flames). after a few minutes, or until cooked to how you like it, pull out of the coals, brush off and enjoy.
on the other hand, there's nothing like a good MRE.

But to form a meal with bonus points in mind Id have to go with this scenario.
Haul out a sweet potato, cut it up and place in tin foil. Place foil wrapped potato on hot coals, that you have made previously from your great campfire. No camp fire, boil the potato until tender. Now when cooked add marshmallows to the potato and wrap up again (making sure the potato is surrounding the marshmallow) and set aside in a warm spot to melt.
Make the Lipton sides (or like) and eat up with your potato. Yummm.

I love roasting anything over a fire. I guess I have a bit of pyromania. S'mores are a camping staple, of course. And I love catching fish and then grilling it over a fire later that evening. It makes me feel so primitive!
Something else yummy: Keep a banana in its peel, but cut a slit in it. Then stuff chocolate, peanut butter, marshmallows, candy, or whatever else you want in it. Wrap it it in foil, and then hold it over the fire for a bit. Open it up, and eat it with a spoon using the peel as your bowl. It's so good!

Take bitter chocolate (the non sweetened type that comes in bars) put it on a brass bowl with the amount of milk you desire and place it over the camp fire. When you see it boiling take the brass bowl out, place it in the floor and grab it with both your feet (remember you are not in your kitchen, you are in the wilderness) take a big wooden scout and stir it up until it gets foamy.
The chocolate bars are then dissolved in to the milk. The mix gets a rich dark chocolate color similar to that of hot cocoa mix. Add some sugar to taste. When ready, fill the cups and add chunks of white cheese, mozzarella or similar type.
When you drink half the cup, the cheese chunks at the bottom (melted by the extreme hot chocolate) will start to appear. You can pick them up with your spoon and eat them while at the same time you finish the remaining half hot chocolate.
It’s delicious!

Place your hamburger patties on foil, use canned mixed vegtables and sprinkle on top (the more the better), put a spoon of butter on the vegies, salt and pepper, then take the foil and make a hersheys kiss type formation closing it tight at the top... place on an open grill over the campfire.
A very delicious and easy camping meal :)

M$We call them banana boats!
Hobo dinners are also very cool. Potatoes, onions, carrots, beef, etc., cut into chunks, wrap in tin foil, place on coals. Cook until potatoes are soft and meat is cooked. Season (we use allspice).
Good luck.

Instead of graham cracker, use salted tops crackers
instead of plain chocolate, use caramilk chocolate
and do not forget the marshmellows..
Seriously, this blend is to die for, don't knock it till you try it
Camping is sopposed to be about relaxing in nature and finding simplicity, doing with what you have.. Why bring all those gadgets? Totally not in the spirit.

Bacon and Eggs in a Paper Bag
Serves 16.
1 pound bacon
16 lunch size paper bags
32 large whole eggs
16 long handled cooking forks
Cut each slice of bacon in half. Open lunch bag and line bottom with 2 half-slices of bacon. Wash hands after handling raw bacon. Close the bag by folding the top down 1 1/2 inches. Make a second fold about the same size. Pierce the bag (through the fold) in the center with the cooking fork or a stick. Hold the bag (by the cooking fork or stick) over a bed of hot coals. The bag should be about 1 inch above the coals. Cook for 3-5 minutes until bag starts to get soaked with bacon grease. Remove bag from heat, let cool for 1 minute.
Break open 2 eggs and drop them into the bag on top of the bacon. Stir eggs, refold bag and pierce in center with cooking fork. Hold the bag about 1 inch above coals for about 15 minutes or until eggs are firm and bacon is cooked. Eat bacon and eggs right from the bag.
Biscuit On A Stick
* Stick or Dowel Rod
* Approx 3/4" in Dia.
* Canned Biscuits
* Squeeze Butter
* Honey
How to Prepare:
Wrap 1 Biscuit around the end of the stick so that none of the stick is showing. Roast over the fire until it is golden brown. The biscuit will pull right off of the stick.
Put your butter and honey down into the hole that the stick left. (You can also use canned pie filling for an optional taste.)

The simplest "hobo dinner" (food cooked in a pouch) I know consists of layering potatoes, onions, kielbasa, and butter in foil and cooking about 45 minutes until the potatoes are tender. IT works well for camping, as the kielbasa is a cooked meat, so you don't need to deal with all the raw meat precautions which are tough to do without hot running water. If you parboil the potatoes at home first, the meal will be ready in about 15 minutes. Not healthy -but good.
Our family favorite breakfast treat is doughboys. Take a dowel about 3/4 in diameter., and wrap a raw Pillsbury crescent roll around the end. Hold it over the fire to cook- patience is important here. Dip the cooked dough in melted butter, then cinnamon sugar.
Enjoy!
