CAMP COOKING RECIPES -- Good for Cooking In Backyard BBQ to Take the Heat Outside!!

I found most of these at recipezaar.com  It is one of my favorite websites for looking up something new.  


Perhaps I should have used my own, but I never write them down and change them every time I make something, depending on my mood at the time.  When I do try to measure and write a recipe down, it never seems to turn out as well.  Some times that is partly the reason that it takes me so long to get something posted.  I am working on it and early next week, I will make some of these again, add pictures and share my tweeks . . . .  you KNOW I have them.

PINEAPPLE CHICKEN   Prep Time: 45 minutes   Total Time: 45 minutes   Servings: 4

Ingredients:

·         4 skinless chicken breasts

·         1/4 cup catsup

·         2 tablespoons cider vinegar

·         2 tablespoons brown sugar

·         1 small can pineapple chunks, drained

·         1 green bell pepper, chopped

·         1 small sweet onion, chopped

·         salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:

Make the sauce first. You can make this ahead of time at home and bring it to the campground in a container in your cooler. First, chop the pepper and onion into big chunks. Then mix all ingredients (except the chicken) in a sauce pan and bring to a slow simmer stirring occasionally.

Next tear off a piece of foil big enough to wrap each chicken breast. Spoon some sauce onto each piece of foil, place a chicken breast on top, and spoon more sauce over each breast. Salt and pepper to taste. Wrap foil tightly and cook for 30-40 minutes over campfire coals or on the grill. Turn occasionally.

Camp Pineapple Upside Down Cake Recipe #210566

We make this whenever we go camping and it really does taste just like pineapple upside down cake. We usually put the packets on the grill grate on the camp fire ring if there is one; if not, we use our BBQ grill.

Prep Time: 10 minutes    Total Time: 10 minutes     Ingredients:  1 can biscuits,  squeeze butter,  1 stick

Preparation:

Roll out a biscuit with your hands so that it becomes elongated and about one inch thick at the center. Wrap it tightly around the end of your stick and pinching it as you go to insure that it stays on the stick while cooking. When done wrapping, the biscuit should take up about six inches of the stick. Heat over the campfire until golden brown. Pull it off the stick, pour butter down the hole left by the stick, and enjoy.

tortillas
pie filling - blueberry, cherry, apple, ...

This dessert has become our favorite. It is Sweet, easy, has very little clean-up, and doesn't get hands really messy if a little care is used.

Instructions:

Open the cans and put a spoon in each one.
Tear off squares of aluminum foil.
Put a tortilla on the square of foil.
Add peanut butter or pie filling.
Sprinkle with chocolate chips and/or marshmallows.
Roll up the tortilla and fold the bottom edge in.
Wrap foil around tortilla and place on grill above fire or on ash around edge of fire.
Wait for the ingredients to melt.

Hints:

·         Main problem is putting too much stuff in the burrito - try to talk people into taking smaller amounts.

·         Put all the tortillas in a foil wrap and carefully heat them before so they are more flexible.

·         Putting tortillas directly into the coals will burn them - keep them away and rotate often.

Each person should mark his burrito wrapper somehow so he knows it is his - special foil fold or permanent marker or series of poked holes in the foil
