Foil Packet Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 4 large potatoes, scrubbed clean and sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
- 1 sweet onion, cut into chunks
- 3 tablespoons butter (you can also use olive oil)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions: First, arrange the potato slices in a single layer on one side of a large piece of foil. Add the onion on top and sprinkle with butter or olive oil. Then season with salt and pepper (optional). Top everything with another sheet of foil. Fold up each end of the foil packet so that it’s sealed closed, then roll up the sides as well to keep everything inside during cooking time. Place your packets on an outdoor grill over medium heat for 20 minutes or until potatoes are tender and cooked through. You’ll know they’re done when you can pierce them easily with a fork. Serve immediately!
If you don’t have an outdoor grill, you can also bake your foil packets in the oven at 400 degrees for about 30 minutes. Just keep an eye on them so that they don’t burn!
Campfire Cobbler
Campfire Cobbler
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons butter or margarine (melted)
- 1 cup milk (or half-and-half) Make cobbler topping: In a medium bowl, combine sugar, flour and salt; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add milk all at once; stir just enough to moisten dry ingredients. Spoon batter into a greased 8″x8″ baking dish; set aside.
- Cook’s Note: To pack as an easy carry-along dessert: Pour batter into quart freezer bag and squish down to fit in pan firmly when you are ready for dinner – no messy clean up! To make your cobbler portable, use this recipe for paper baking cups instead of a pan and pack the fruit mixture separately so that it can be spooned over individual servings of hot cake batter atop campfire coals or even indoors on the stovetop before serving with ice cream or whipped cream

Campfire Bacon and Eggs
Bacon and eggs is a classic camping breakfast recipe. The dish consists of fried bacon, scrambled eggs, and toast. You can use a cast iron skillet on your campfire to cook the bacon and eggs.
This is an easy recipe that can be prepared before you go camping, so all you have to do when you get there is heat up the skillet over the fire! Foil packet potatoes are also delicious when cooked in your cast-iron skillet over an open flame. They’re quick to prepare before leaving home (just add some foil packets of raw potatoes) and easy enough for anyone to make while camping in the great outdoors!
For the perfect camping breakfast, combine bacon and eggs with some delicious toast. You can also add a side of fresh fruit or fried potatoes for an extra boost of energy!
For an even quicker breakfast, you can use foil packets to cook potatoes. Simply add some raw potatoes and other ingredients (like onions and bell peppers) to a foil packet and place it on your campfire for 20 minutes or so. You’ll have delicious potatoes ready in no time!
