Simple Camp Cooking Recipes
Looking for some simple camping recipes for your next camping trip? I've got some great ideas for yummy simple meals that will please your crew.
Planning ahead makes the actual camp cooking a breeze and stress free for the cook.
I like to do as much in my own kitchen before heading out.
Some meals I cook all the way and freeze, others just package items together and others do some of the prep at home to be finished off on site.
Tin Foil is Your Friend Did you ever make hobo dinners as a kid? It's an easy meal you can prep at home or on site.
This is more of a guideline than a recipe because you can change the meat, vegetables and seasonings to suit your tastes and imagination.
Use a double layer of heavy-duty tin foil.
Don't skimp on the tin foil! Layer:
Think of it as a simple camp oven.
Dog on a stick Small children will need supervision with this but it's a fun main dish that everyone gets to cook for themselves.
Sharp green sticks or hot dog/marshmallow skewers
Some recipes we never make at home, but keep for just for camping out which makes the trip and the food special.

- Thinly sliced potato
- Sliced carrot
- Hamburger patty
- Garlic seasoning
- Sliced onions
- Make a packet out of the tinfoil making sure it's sealed well and set in the coals on the fire.
The potatoes will take the longest to cook so judge your time by them.

Sharp green sticks or hot dog/marshmallow skewers
- Biscuit mix, refrigerated or made from mix.
If made from mix keep it fairly thick in texture. - Hot dogs or other sausage
- Skewer the hot dogs.
- Roll the biscuit dough into a strip and wrap around the hot dog on the skewer.
Pat in place so it is on really well. - Roast over coals, turning so the biscuit dough cooks evenly around the hot dog.
Done when the biscuit dough is cooked through.
- Serve with mustard and relish for dipping.
No need for buns!
