When I was a kid in the early 50's an old man who had hobo-ed all over the country in the 30's used to take several of us hunting and fishing. He knew more things to cook and more ways of cooking than anyone else I ever knew. He'd make a rabbit stew in a coffee can, or wrap fish in clay and bake them in the campfire coals. he'd pull wild onions for flavor and always had a little pack of salt. It doesn't matter so much what you cook ON (or in) as knowing how to make simple things taste good. I think of him often when I'm "camp cookin'"

I'm starting out with a Griddler and working my way up from there.
Nothing like a real grill-cooked burger though.
(I'd probably be better off grilling the cookbook and eating that ;) ).
Agreeing with shep an NYCgrrl. There's no such thing as failure in camp cooking: merely teaching moments and reservations :w - NYCgrrlExplorer
