Campfire Cooking: Food to Fuel ADVENTURE

I relly like how you do the leveling up skills things I’m gonna try something like that for my channel

Which style of meal planning would you prefer for a LARP, camp cooking for individuals and companions, camp cooking for a group based on factions, or a meal plan prepared by staff or catered-in, or food trucks in an out-of-game area?

Certainly something to make camping far more appealing.

Cool 😀

Marshmallows are a bit story breaking unfortunately

what are the dry ingredients for the gluten-free bread? it looks so much better than ANY glutenfree bread I have ever made!

Where did you get the wooden dishes?

That breakfast looked good. Tomatoes and mushrooms not breakfast foods? Don't tell me you've never had an omelette with cheese, onions, tomatoes, mushrooms and ham and/or bacon and/or sausage.

Probably the most elaborate meal I have done while camping was either grilled llamb chops (that I pre-marinated) with grilled asparagus, rosemary garlic potatoes with a baby spinach salad and grilled slices of French bread or grilled pork tenderloin with an orange-soy glaze (put orange juice and soy sauce in a pan and cook until reduced to about half), fried green tomatoes, roasted corn on the cob (purchased on the way to the campground from a farmer selling it from the back of his pickup) and fried cornbread.

Why would baked potato be breakfastfood. All the rest of it....yummy. I would eat this for dinner (including potato) too.

An observation: the music used in this video was written for a YT channel I watch called the Northern Mudlarks, a mother-daughter pair who wander the British & Scottish countryside digging in old bottle dumps or the sea shore for doll parts, ceramics, bottles & anything else they can find in a 200-to-400 year old dump (they even found a gold Sovereign coin, once). I hope the site you got the music from had permission to post it. P.S: LOVE the Stranger Things T-shirt!

👍👍👍👍

Spoon bread tends to be an easier bread to make, and it doesn't have wheat flour for the most part. Just a wetter cornbread mix...use a pan with a bit of oil and let it go.

In Newfoundland we’ll fry up leftover bread dough like that and serve with molasses or syrup or something sweet with a ton of butter lol Toutons!

My mom and I are hitting up the Great Western War this year, and that breakfast is definitely going on the menu. Yum.

(Sandi) I'm a war cook - I specialize in making bread on site. One of my favorite campfire "treats" is my own creation I first made at an inter-kingdom war in Atlantia called Phoenix Eggs. To make phoenix eggs, you need to make a salt dough (2 cups kosher salt, 5-6 cups flour, water, optional spices), grape or fig leaves, 2 cornish game hens (allowed to thaw), and a couple bunches or fresh herbs. Roll the dough out to ¼-½ inxh thickness. Stuff the herb bundle into the cavity of the cornish game hen and wrap in the leaves. Wrap each hen in a fitting piece of the salt dough, sealing well. Historically, this is a take on the 'cooking in a coffin". In a large bed of coals, make a large divot, deep enough to place the "package" in the well . Cover with coals and cover with wood to keep the coals going. Remove from the coals after around an hour. Move the "egg" to a stable surface to dust off and then transfer it to a large platter with a rim to collect the juices. Crack the egg and pour out the hen. You'll see what I'm talking about when it comes out ^_^

Looks great

I enjoy the idea of bushcraft and this is one of the best parts, making amazing food for dinner breakfast and lunch and just enjoying the atmosphere

I'm also allergic to the gluten and it sucks, I didn't really know until a few years ago, so I was a big Guinness drinker before hand and now no beer at all unless it's GF and most of those suck.. Mead, whiskey, and Jager for me know LoL

When just regular camping we used to cook onions with the potatoes, and make a stew of meat and vegetables topped with a layer of cornbread ( put a sheet of aluminum foil over the top of your pot placing some coals/embers from your fire to provide a crispier top)

The go-to camping food in my family is tinfoil dinners. Roll out the foil. Place down cabbage leaves to help keep the food from burning to the foil. Then you layer the meat (normally hamburger patties or cube steak), and pile on potato slices, carrots, onion, salt and pepper. It would probably be great with bell peppers. Then you roll up the foil completely around the food. Place in the coals. After the first time having it, my husband says it's the best part of camping out. Of course he's not an outdoor fan.

One of the things you should make is a stealth cooler. Your encampment can be open, but your refrigerable food stays safe. I'm sure at Pennsic you saw some ideas.

I've been larping for years, and recently I kinda got bored of role plying and some other aspects of it... But this... I love cooking, and above all I love feeding great comforting food to anyone who will seat with me and share their stories... I might not be completely done with larping, thanks for the renewed motivation <3

I really like these tips! There's a pretty easy and really good dish from Scandinavia which is called (at least in Swedish) Pyttipanna, which translates to like "small pieces in pan". Its abit like hash. Pyttipanna is essentially potatoes, onions, some kind of chopped or minced meat like sausage, ham, meatballs. Then just cut everything into cubes and fried them.

Often served with a fried egg and pickled beetroot slices.

I can definetly recommend it!

My fends dad is allergic to aloha

I really love how you do your videos! Things like "Are snak paks child charcuterie boards?" and "Pickled peppers which I presume that Peter Piper probably picked...Most likely " and other things you say and do just make your videos so much more fun! It's like it is driven for those with neuro diversity LOL

Are related to @The Cantina?

I feel like a larper that's medieval inspired that's allergic to wheat is like superman without a cape, something's just missing.

You can potentially use Rice grain to make a bread too. It also swells pretty good from what I have seen.

Wow what a feast, all that looks delicious

Do yourself a favor and swap the orange marmalade for a fig jam. I promise you won't look back. Also chef tip: use a soon to scrape the gills from the mushrooms

"this whole thing was just... Bananas"

I YAM FURIOUS ABOUT THIS.

The red wall books really brought the beautiful food to life. I got the chance to make strawberry cordial over the summer and it was just as delicious as the books and tv show made it out to be.

This guy's doctor: "Wait. Wait --"

currently fighting the urge to go outside and start of fire just so I can make these! will definitely utilize this in the future

You’re a man after my own heart. I agreed with everything you covered in this vid!

Please make a proper shield. Fantasy inspired of course. 🤗

Omg that gluten free bread recipe, totally need to they that it looked amazing! Totally unexpected but you made my day!

Have you made bowls yet?

Great cooking video. Interesting bread. Will have to try it. Thank you for sharing.

Great video, grate food. But now I am hungry 😋

I am so hungry right now.

fantastic feasts and where to find them.

Fritata, Quiche, Stews, and Cobblers are very easy to make over a campfire. Bread is also very easy to make in a Dutch Oven.

Whenever I am invited to camp with some friends. I am the one that does all the cooking. Backstory, I offered to cook dinner on the last night of a week long camp when I was like 15, I just turned 30 a little more then a month before I posted this comment. I made fried rice with all the scraps from the previous meals, over the fire. It was apparently so damn good that I was, on the spot, dubbed the camp cook when I'm there. Probably helped that I am a fifth generation chef. My grandpa's grandpa started and ran a now 2 Michelin Star restaurant. All sons through the generations worked there in the summers during school. Some of them made a few of the dishes there that are staples to this day.

A dutch oven creates a whole new world of things you can cook camping. You could also do a Confit at home and bring it along, using the fat for cooking oil.

When he said 'quiet moments' my mind was instantly taken back to the soundtrack of Wanderers from Ys. Lol.
Try this on your next campfire feast event: take a ripe pineapple and cut the rind off. Cut it lengthwise into spears and cut out the tough core. Add brown sugar, butter and any spices you may like such as cinnamon. Wrap it in a foil pouch nice and tight and place it on some good warm coals. Let it cook turning it over (carefully with tongs) about once. Once it's roasted and the sugar is melted into it remove (carefully again with tongs). When it's cool enough to touch remove the fruit and cut into slices. You can eat it as is or place it on cake etc. Be careful not to overcook it.
Also I believe marshmellows are an ancient Hobbit food invented in the Shire. (Couldn't you see Frodo and Samwise eating marshmellows? Lol!)

Real talk, peameal bacon is pretty awesome with the other stuff here. that said, I am now EXTREMELY hungry so thank you for that

So are they couple? Cause cause if not then it's obvious they should be😂

best meal ive made on a campfire was omelets to order

I know the struggle of cooking and baking for allergies. I eat a plant-based diet and am allergic to wheat, tomatoes, and corn (including citric acid) and avoid soy because my wife is allergic to it… There’s still plenty to eat, but it’s a whole different way of thinking and cooking.
