Best Meals While Boondocking

I'm going to get shouted down for this, but Dungeness crab that's steamed in a microwave tastes exactly like lobster. Throw some melted herb butter on it and you'll figure out how I gained 30 pounds.

I would love to have that steak and lobster dinner:)

I usually do when we go to Maine, but up there I usually forget the steak. :B :S

I hope to make it to Maine and eat my way through the state next summer;)

Went camping a few weeks ago with my grandson and my cousin. We went old school using tents out in the NF. Brought the propane stove yet never used it. Ended up roasting hotdogs over the fire on whittled willow sticks.

Best dang hotdogs I've eaten in many years, even better than those at the ballpark!

Moral of the story, go simple with comfort foods. No sense in getting fancy. One of my favorites is Frito pie: ie, Frito chips, smothered in chili and cover with as much shredded cheese as you like.

KISS: Keep it simple, stupid (or Simon, for those that a overly offended at jokes)

We never get tired of grilling and do so nearly every day. You can even do veggies on it. We rarely cook a big meal indoors when boondocking.

we got a camp chef portable oven with twin cooktop burners from our kids for christmas 2 years ago and we cook anything we want.last easter the wife and i had a full on turkey dinner in the middle of nowhere.runs of 1 lb or 20 lb tanks.instant mashed potatoes and stovetop stuffing used less than a half a bottle of water,if that.

Fresh caught fish, washed down with a local microbrew bought at the last town we passed through.
