Cooking over the fire is a quintessential part of camping — there is something about campfire meals in foil that everyone can enjoy. When your family is hungry, you need something simple to make and yummy to eat. These best campfire recipes take only a few basic ingredients and a bit of time on the fire to make a satisfying dinner or sweet dessert.
Hamburger hobo pie is a hearty take on the camping classic hobo pie. Add ground beef, potato wedges, onion and carrots to a foil bag and season with salt. You can also add other vegetables, such as corn or bell pepper. Place the foil on the grate over the fire, and roast until the potatoes are soft and the beef is no longer pink.
Turn kabobs into a fireside meal with this bag kabobs recipe. These kabobs are versatile, so you can add nearly any meat and vegetables your family likes — try beef, chicken, bell peppers, potatoes, mushrooms and anything you have on hand. Cut the meat into stew-size pieces and put it in a foil bag with oil, garlic and seasonings. Put the chopped vegetables in a separate bag and season them. Roast the kabobs on the grate over the fire until all ingredients are cooked.
Fireside fajitas are the camper's version of this delicious Mexican dish that is sure to be a hit with everyone in your group. You will need steak or chicken, salsa, fajita seasoning, corn, onions and peppers. After slicing the protein and vegetables, add all ingredients to a foil bag and cook on the fire grate until the meat is cooked through and the vegetables are soft. Serve on a tortilla and top with sour cream, shredded cheese, jalapeños and your favorite fajita toppings.
Peach treat is a fruity and sweet campfire dessert. Slice the peaches in half and remove the pit, leaving the skin intact. Brush the peaches with honey or maple syrup, then grill the peaches over the fire until soft and fragrant. Serve in a dish with lady fingers and yogurt, and sprinkle cinnamon and nutmeg on top.
Camp eclairs are the campfire version of eclairs and take only three ingredients — biscuit dough, vanilla pudding and chocolate frosting. Mold the biscuit around a roasting camp fork or stick with a large diameter. Toast the biscuit until golden brown, then remove from the fork. Fill the hole with vanilla pudding and drizzle chocolate frosting on top for a sweet treat.
