I came across this while looking at the muzzleloading guns and the reenactment clothing. The recipes look like fun and yummy to try.

I have been saying I am going to try and master or get good at Dutch oven cooking. I may have to get my own? My wife gets mad at just the thought of me touching the one she never uses.

One of the many forums I can still log into, but never visit

Would it be better to drop my Dutch oven recipes here, or in the library?

I think in the recipe forum would be the best place for the recipes. We'd love to have them.

Ohhh...now the real me comes to light. I just can't do that. I know about Dutch ovens over the fire. I've had to cook on a wood stove. I love a good wood stove and enjoy building a fire.

But I just can't do that cooking anymore. If someone else does the work I will eat the rewards.

The number one thing to know about campfire cooking is..........that flames are almost useless for cooking.

>95% of campfire cooking tasks are best done over actively smouldering coals.

The wood you burn will start out producing flames and then progress to being coals suitable for cooking.

Short cooking jobs like grilling some meat can be done by lighting a fire, burning it down to coals and then doing the cooking.

Longer cooking jobs (like a roast in a DO), require you to create two fires (which may be side by side).......one to produce coals and the other to use the coals for cooking (until they need to be rotated back to the active fire, replaced or re-invigorated prior to re-use).

The number two thing to know, is how to assess and control the temperature you are applying to your food.......over time.
