Going camping, what veggies, etc are good to cook on a campfire?

Question

I was thinking a potato wrapped in tin foil. Any other suggestions?

Answer 1

Paneer Tikka is one. Soak cubes of Indian Paneer and bell peppers in Mixture of (Yogurt, Red Chillies, Tandoori spice, and turmeric powder, cumin powder) for 2 hours. And then grill it. Add some lemon juice on the Tikka before serving. Eat with Cilantro chutney.

Answer 2

Onions, peppers, squash etc. Any veggie can be cooked on a campfire but for some you may need to cook them in an aluminum foil pan..add some butter and seasonings and cook..just like you would on a stove.

Answer 3

Just about any veggie. I love grilled asparagus and broccoli. Wrap in tin foil drizzle with olive oil and a grill seasoning (salt&pepper) mix. Make sure to turn the packet so the stuff on bottom doesn't burn. Toss some corn on the cob in the husk in an indirect heat area and try that.

Answer 4

When my family goes camping, we put raw hamburger, onions, peppers, potaotes and carrots, seasoned however each person likes, into aluminum foil and put into the hot coals of a fire. It only takes about 15 minutes to cook. You could do this vegetarian if you like. You can also use different meats.

Answer 5

This is yummy:
wrap(double wrap) in foil:
chopped up potatoes , diced onion, corn (frozen or canned)-& chopped zucchini- toss in some s &p & then a few tablespoons of butter & let it cook on the grill until veggies are tender.

Answer 6

You can wrap up corn on the cob too- you could wrap almost any fresh veggie up in aliminum foil and it will steam in there- be nice and tender when you take it out! I'd suggest you put the foil wrapped potatoes directly into the fire though or you will be waiting FOREVER for them to get done.

Answer 7

corn on the cob, wrap it up same as you do the potatoes, or hold it with tongs over the fire. Don't peel the corn till after it cooks, it will steam then in it's own leaves. Really tasty... also, you can make veggie kabobs! Green peppers, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes. Good stuff.

Answer 8

Yes. Fresh ears of corn. You peel back the husks but don't take them off. Remove all the silk, then coat the ear in butter an d salt and pepper. Then pull the husks back up and you can wrap them in foils too if you want. Then place in the fire. Cook till done. About the same time as the potatoes. yummy

Answer 9

That's good for starters......
Any veggie is good if it fits on a skewer
Also, you can clean corn on the cob, leaving it in the shuck, and roast the ears.

One of my most favorite camping meals.....

Hot dog on shaved hickory stick ( or hot doge skewer), wrapped in biscuit dough, roasted over open fire. oh yeah!
AND for breakfast..... just wrap the biscuit dough around the stick and pinch the top closed. When the dough is done, take off the stick, turn upside down, and put squeeze butter or syrup down the hole. OOOOOOOOOOO Yeah!

Anything you can cook on a barbecue grill can also be cooked on a campfire.
