looking for some ideas for camping good eats.
Hobo dinners. Ground beef pattie in the bottom of a foil packet with onions, potatoes, whatever veggies you like and a couple slices of bacon. Throw it on the fire till its done. My dad always made these growing up when we went camping.
for burgers get some good sirloin and have it ground into hamburger. get a packet of liptons onion soup. mix the onion soup and the burger with some Worcester sauce and make some burgers. dont forget the dogs.
you know whats even better than Lipton's Onion soup mix in burgers ?

Pudgie pies are a staple when we go camping. Pizza, taco, whatever you want to fill them with. And egg ones for breakfast. And the kids love making them.
We love HOBO pies (camp cookers, or pie irons) made with butter tastin biscuit rolled out instead of bread. Or refrigerated croissant rolls.
We've even had a hobo pie cooking contest once. Several families involved. Way too much hobo pie goodness! My entry was an Italian Chicken with cheese and italian spices and tomatos. My friend made yellow cake with a brownie fudge in the center. (He started cooking the cake on each open half, then slapped them together to finish once they cooked a bit.)
I also would love to see some pics of a polish luau
Another fun thing to do, though I haven't done it in awhile, is a Polish Luau. It's great for large gatherings and group camping trips.
You start with a NEW, NEVER USED, galvanized garbage can. You line the bottom of the can with a case or so of BMC (cans) and crack open the beer cans. You then layer on top of the open beer cans some brats, skin-on hot dogs, potatoes, onions, corn on the cob, and anything else that triggers your fancy. Put the cover on the can and support it over the campfire for about 2 hours. The beer will steam-cook all of the food above it and it is absolutely delicious! The brats, and any other non-pre-cooked sausage, will be white in color because of being steamed instead of grilled. If you think that would not be appetizing, then grill them first a bit to brown them.
I will be doing some or all of the hobo pies above. I also would love to see some pics of a polish luau
I just want everyone to know that galvanized is poisonous when burned. If you want to try this than burn a good hot fire in the can before using it to burn off the galvanized coating. Use some apple wood or something for the fire to get a good flavor seasoned on the can.
think long term effects: a cigarette may not hurt you today, eating something fried won't either. Speaking as a doctor thats a silly thing to say. Many cancers come about from exposure to known poisons decades ago.
of course i'm NOT a doctor, i was just speaking as one. If there was a minute chance cooking over something unsafe could harm my children somewhere down the line I'd rather not use it
not hardlyIt's been at least 15 years. That long term enough for ya?
