We have a "camping tradition" that we've done, for at least 30 years now. Even when we tent camped, we did this.
The first morning of camping season, wherever and whenever that is, and regardless of what mode of camping we are doing, the first camp of the new year ....
We have T-bone steak, fried eggs, and hash browns. Now, the way it's been prepared has changed over the years too. We've gone from over the fire, to gas grills, to gas griddles, to electric griddles, to stove top skillets. We currently fix it all on flat electric griddles.
Now, the beauty of a flat electric griddle is the ability to catch the grease in the drip pan and continue to baste the T-bone by pouring it back on top, over and over and over again. Also, I add a VERY large spoon of salted butter on top of the T-bone and let it melt down. It mixes with the grease and use this to continue basting the T-bone.
Hash browns are fixed on the same griddle, and I deliberately use the grease from the T-bone, instead of spraying with Pam or something like that, and then the same wet greasy griddle is used to fix the eggs. My wife likes them over-easy. I like them fried hard.
That with a cup of coffee for the wife (I don't like coffee), and my cup of hot chocolate, and this is a tradition that's been going on for 30 (plus) years now!
The other "tradition" we do is, the first evening arriving at the camp site, the first camp-out of the year, we have cheese and crackers, and wine for supper! When the kids were little, we served them bubbly grape juice and picked a cheese they liked. We made this such a special event, it also has survived over 30 years.
