Mush

Not sure what you'd call this. We had some leftover emergency camping rations in the form of KD boxes. That was the foundation for this dinner. It came together well and tasted better then you'd think. The white cheese and creme fraiche combo didn't hurt either. I guess you can never judge a box by it's cover.

Ham

Ham with some mashed potatoes/carrots and buttered cauliflower on the side. A simple meal that filled the gap.

Pork & Beans

Camping is the one time using a can actually makes sense and helps stretch food a week or two without buying ice and fresh meat etc every 5 days. These pork and beans from a can are combined with some leftover wieners from the hot dogs we  had a few days before this. This made for a quick and hearty lunch.

Tacos & Camping

They seem to go together really well. A few weeks ago on another camping trip I'd posted pictures of steak wraps we'd made and mentioned that next time we'd be doing tacos because bread tends to go bad quickly and taco shells and nachos don't. This is the next evolutionary step. We were amazed just how simple tacos were while camping and this is a now a new addition to our camping staple foods like burgers and steak.

The people that make those often used canning jars "Ball" now make hard plastic ones that seal water tight with threaded lids. Normally we avoid plastic and we never heat food in anything that isn't straight glass or  porcelain etc. These BALL "jars" will never be heated though but instead used for storing and freezing. They worked amazingly well for camping. Everything stayed fresh and dry in these for an entire week. They are another new camping staple now.

Steak

Cooking with coal and the hibachi is a whole lot easier now that we use one of these coal starters. Not that it was difficult before but it's completely painless now. We used the leftover coals after cooking to boil water for the dishes and then as a base for a camp fire. Words can't describe how good this marinated steak was.
