5.0 out of 5 stars The best!, July 12, 2007

Disregard the other reviews! As an camp outdoor cooking instructor, I have many years experience teaching cooking over a fire and have never found a more useful cookbook as this for my classes! Comprehensive and fun, this book has it all...pie iron recipes, in a skillet, on a stick, in a dutch oven and wrapped in aluminum...all meals are tasty and practical. I even give this book as an award each year to my 'Most Outstanding' camper.

4.0 out of 5 stars Easy camping recipes, July 10, 2006

By 

Debbie Ireland "tiredsahm" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Campfire Cooking (Spiral-bound)

I have made 5 of the recipes in this book so far and have enjoyed them all. It covers all varieties of camp cooking from pie irons to dutch ovens to foil packets to the grill. The recipes I chose required no pre-cooked meat as stated in a previous review, and I have only seen a couple of recipes that do. The recipes are easy to assemble and some can be prepared to marinate before you leave home, making cooking on the road even easier. I found this a good basic campfire cookbook that gives you a little bit of everything and every campfire cooking method. I would recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Ideas, March 8, 2007

By 

Heather Rader (New Phila) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Campfire Cooking (Spiral-bound)

I had borrowed the book from the library hoping to get some good recipe ideas for camping. I found so many recipes that I'd like to try that I decided it was worth buying the book. I'm looking forward to trying these new recipes with the kids this summer. I didn't see a lot of recipes that called for pre-cooked foods but I was mostly looking for fun ideas for kids of all ages to prepare themselves.
