CampFire Cooking – With a Gourmet Touch Achieved with Ease!CampFire Cooking is written by Brad Probst, a lifelong camper, backpacker and avid camp chef. His enthusiasm for camping, and especially camp cooking, shines through and provides a great recipe book with a wonderfully unique outdoor camp style. Chapters are helpfully arranged by cooking method: Skillet menus, Griddle cooking, Foil dinners, Grilling and barbecuing, Smoke cooking, Desserts, Marinades and spices. The smoke, marinades and spices make simple food extraordinary with lots of creativity but little extra effort. Mr. Probst offers lots of hints, as well as friendly advice and humor interspersed throughout the book. My favorite tidbit is his admonishment to beware of cooking on campfire grills already attached to the campsite. He points out you never know what kind of plastics or chemicals someone might have burned there previously, and that those substances may leave a nasty flavor on your food, or worse yet, cause health problems. And while high heat sterilizes, how might someone have extinguished the flames in the past? He leaves you with -> think about it! The front cover is lovely – a personal invitation to go camping and eat well. Campfire Cooking is 64 pages, 5 1/2″ X 8 1/2″. |

Camp Recipes for KidsCamp Recipes for Kids provides you with over 100 recipes for fun food kids want to eat and cook. These recipes are both easy to understand and can be cooked with readily available ingredients. One of the neat things about many of these recipes is their built in options, providing more picky eaters with alternatives that add fun to the meal for all. For instance, a basic pancake meal gives 17 interesting taste treat ideas. The introduction covers safety rules and measures. There are chapters for Breakfast, Lunch, Snacks, This “N” That, Dinner, and my favorite, Fun Around the Campfire (With hot dog fork cooking, cooking in foil and pie iron fun). The recipes in CampRecipes for Kids are compiled by Richard O’russa who has had lots of experience camp cooking with children, and he has compiled a real treasure chest of recipes to delight the children in your life. He advises to think of camp cooking as an adventure and provides helpful hints and encouragement throughout the book. For instance, at the end of the “Fish Filet BBQ” recipe, he states it is great served with the Skillet Fried Cornbread found on pg 29. He advises that cooking times given are only a guide as things that affect true cooking times are the temperature of your fire , how far away you are from the coals, altitude, and even the amount of wind that is blowing. This makes your camping trip a physics adventure for your child. After one recipe he encourages, “A perfect dessert everyone in the family will enjoy especially since you (your child) made it”. Part of the fun of camping trips is the campfire cooking, and Camp Recipes for Kids allows your children to sample a big part of the fun, both in meal selection and preparation. How about Canoe Pocket, Honey Bee Balls, Quesadillas in Foil, or No-bake Rocky Road Candy to top off your next camping trip? Happy Camping! – Precious Memories!
