Would you please send In your favorite over the fire recipes or best grilling dish you make.

Heres one of my favorite things to make when I'm making dinner ...

Baked Potato in a Can:

Use a tin can such as one from beans or vegetables. Generously butter the outside of the potato, season to taste. Next place the potato in the can and cover with foil. Put the can next to the fire of coals and let it cook for about 30-45 minutes. Do not remove the tin foil, even for a peek! You will have the best baked potato, perfectly cooked.

And for desert :

Campfire Banana Split:
banana and your favorite campfire toppings

Split banana lengthwise, push open like hot dog buns, add toppings.
Wrap in tin foil and cook over campfire for 3-5 minutes. Mmmmmmmm Mmmmmmmm
Good!

Happy holiday!

In some boiling water put
some new potatoes
some 'roastin' ears - broken in half
1 or 2 lemons cut in half

after a while, put some turkey sausage, cut 1"-2"
and a bunch of shrimp

Marshmellows and weiners. Can't go wrong. Always a crowd pleaser.

Ya can't beat Salted roasted capelin, a slice of homemade buttered bread and a cup of tetley tea.

Don't forget the molasses with that slice of homemade buttered bread.

TomCat -- Like that tater in a can idea... we'll give that a tumble next time we're out.

Almost anything cooked on a campfire tastes better!



See you around the campfire

Here's another good one and it's sooooo easy!

Peach Mallows:

peach halves (canned or fresh)
mini marshmallows
butter (optional)
cinnamon sprinkle
Fill peach halves with butter and marshmallows.
Sprinkle with cinnamon generously.
Wrap in tin foil and cook over campfire for 3-5 minutes.

This is soooo good!

Plank salmon cooked on an open fire. Use same method as a BBQ. There is nothing better then a lobster boil.

[TomCat]

Ok I have never done a boil please give me the details.... Sounds great

[caper]

You just heat a large pot of salt water and add the lobster. It is best when you are on a beach and can use sea water. There is nothing better then being on a beach at night with a cold Keiths and a large pot of lobsters boiling over an open fire.

COWBOY SAUSAGE AND BEANS

1 pound Italian sausage ( hot, sweet, or combination)

1 14 0z can crushed tomatoes

1 tbsp brown sugar

1 tbsp prepared mustard

Salt and pepper to taste

1 15 oz can of baked beans

1 15 oz can kidney beans

6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled

Remove the sausage from the casing, crumble meat and saute till browned. Simmer tomatoes, onions, brown sugar, mustard, salt, and pepper for 30minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the sausage, beans and bacon. Simmer for 15 to 20 minutes

Worcestershire sauce, barbeque sauce, montreal steak/chicken seasoning, and dark ale beer (I prefer Fat Tire) and a few pounds of chicken breasts, thighs and legs, all still in the bone.

In a large plastic tub place the chicken, pour copious amounts of Worcestershire sauce and barbeque sauce over the chicken (about a half bottle Worc. full bottle bbq sauce or more as needed per the qty of chicken) Then pour one or two beers in to thin the consistency of the bbq sauce to a moderate slurry rather than thick sauce. Sprinkle a few table spoons of Montreal seasoning over the slurry. Put a lid on the container and shake to blend all the sauce and seasoning.

Marinade cold for several hours. (2 or more hours is good)

Cook on an open fire grill or over charcoal, baste the chicken each time you turn the chicken by pouring slurry over the chicken allowing it to cook into the chicken rather than sticking to the outside of the chicken.

Use a spray bottle to control hot spots and to prevent flare ups and burnt chicken.

Cook until done.

Best chicken ever!

Pink salmon with a marinate of -

1 oz of dark Rum or bourbon
2 tsp of brown sugar or brown splenda
1 oz pineapple juice or maple syrup.
1 tsp crush garlic
slightly heat your marinate before applying

When salmon is about 3/4 done apply margarine to top of fish, continue cooking, just before removing from your heat (broiler or wrapped in foil)
apply above marinate to all of the top surface of salmon, continue heat for 2-3 mins

ENJOY !

get 6" long beef ribs separated into individual ribs. Marinade in your favorite teriyaki sauce at least one day ahead. cook over low heat. You should be able to keep your hand over where the ribs are for 1 minute at least or it is too hot. Cook for 3 hours adding briquets every 30 minutes or so to keep the heat going. Fat renders out and is still moist. Good eating.

Beef Brisket ,
With Tripod as high as it will go and the fire low and slow place a 7 to 8 pound brisket fat side up , do not trim the fat , let it run down through the meat to keep it moist , wrap the rack with foil on the outside of the rack and chains that hold the rack to make a smoke stack effect and let it slow cook for about 4 to 5 hours. Oak wood works the best I feel and you will be amazed how you drive the rest of the CG crazy with the aroma all day long.
When finished you should be able to pretty much pull it apart and serve with your favorite BBQ sauce , I prefer Stubbs Products , and don't forget the cold beer while cooking and when partaking of a great meal with friends.
