What do you cook with?

We do bring a small gas grill when camp but so far I have yet to use it.. So far we have been using a grate over the firepit and have cooked whole chickens and beef butt.. I was just wondering what do you guys use for outdoor cooking? dutch ovens ect.. Im looking to stay away from using a gas grill.. So what do you guys like cook with besides gas?Any pictures of your set ups?

    Bought a replacement grill from Wal-Mart. Since many campsites use old truck rims it fits in the bead grove. Also have 3 small c clamps I use if it won't fit. Have a tripod grill that's kind of fun. Figure I have a campfire I might as well use it. Also like playing with the Dutch Oven.

    Have a Weber Smoky Joe that works but not as fun as playing with the fire.

    Cooking over a fire is an art. Have resect for them old cooks that a fire was their only option.

    Each to their own but not a fan of gas. To easy, just light and cook. No challenge. Personally think food tastes better cooked over a fire.



    The tripod gril? can you attach a dutch oven to that as well?

  • I've made my small smoker into a dual purpose cooker with a few mods that allows me to smoke and bbq on it.
