I guess I do like most of you do, except I use oak blocks on an open fire to cook chicken, steak, pork etc so there are not pans to clean up. For eggs and bacon I just use my 30 year old Coleman grill with a rectangular griddle that I just wipe off. I use this for blackening fish also. Some Navajo women showed me how to make fry bread some years back so I make that quite often because it is easy, just flour, baking powder, salt and water. I use this for pizza dough on the griddle. If you fry this bread in oil it will bubble up and you can sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon and it makes a nice dessert. I also wrap the fry bread around a stick and cook it over an open fire and stuff the insides with just about everything. I like to make Rubens in the pie iron for lunch, or when berries are in season pick them and put them between two slices of white bread and butter the outsides and they make a nice desert. Use the cast iron not the Al ones they melt. I coat potatoes with olive oil and salt and wrap in Al foil and cook in the fire. For breakfast I make boy scout coffee by boiling water and adding the grounds directly in the boiling water then stir with a lit hickory stick until the fire goes out.It adds a nice flavor to the coffee. Over the years I have tried a lot of things some good some not so good but these are my favorites things.
