Recipe Inspiration
Looking for ideas to kick off your Campfire Feast recipe? Here are a few crowd-pleasers that work great around the campfire:
- Campfire Roasted Turkey Breast: Forget the whole turkey and go with a manageable cut like turkey breast. Season it well, wrap in foil, and let it cook over a steady campfire for juicy, smoky flavor.
- Sweet Potato Foil Packs: Slice up sweet potatoes, toss them with cinnamon, a touch of brown sugar, and a drizzle of maple syrup, then wrap them in foil and cook over hot coals. These are perfect for that classic Thanksgiving sweetness without any fuss!
- Dutch Oven Pumpkin Bread: Use a Dutch oven to make a warm, spiced pumpkin bread. Just mix up your ingredients, pour them into a greased Dutch oven, and let it bake on a low heat for a delicious dessert around the fire.
