These camp recipes and dutch oven cooking processes are made off of the back of a teardrop trailer with minimal prep, made in a small space, and made with just a few kitchen appliances. Simple but great food.
I cover all of my favorite camping recipes, camp stove recipes, gourmet camping recipes, campfire meals in foil, camping food hacks, easy camping meals for a family, camping meals that are made ahead of the trip, and camping meals for the solo camper.
This week, I made another batch of grape juice. Every year I make it. I’ve also added a few pictures at the end of this post. The process is easy: Pick the grapes Remove the grapes from the stems (stems make for bitter juice) Steam the grapes in a few steamers Empty the the steamer […]
I just returned from spending a week in the woods of north Idaho with the senior class. Every year, as part of our school program, we take the seniors, and many of their parents, into the woods to rough it. There is no electricity, no camp sites, no showers, no cell phone coverage. During this […]
As I awoke from a much needed nap this afternoon, I thought about the boxes of fresh produce in our kitchen. I’ve been taking care of my parent’s house while they’ve been gone for the past 3 weeks. Between that, my own yard, and getting ready to teach again, life has been really busy. The […]
On July 4 we hosted another Dutch Oven Gathering (DOG) at our house. It was a scorcher (97 degrees) but we did it anyway. The food, of course, was amazing and it was fun to have more people at this gathering than our first. In total, our group made 8 dishes. Dad made Enchiladas, Home-made […]
For Mother’s day, Senior Management and I had both of our families (although incomplete) to our house for breakfast & a bike ride. Breakfast seemed to be a success. The dish I made for breakfast is one that a member of the camp-cook.com forum shared during the Desert Week Cook off. And it is actually […]
I made a quick meal recently: Cedar planked Salmon with rice & red bell peppers. This is my own recipe and it was a great time to try out some new sauces & spices I’ve found. Being allergic to wheat severely limits what I can eat. Any food with a “Modified Starch – Corn or […]
My high-school teaching life has been all consuming recently. After 7 years of teaching, I have come to expect that a teacher, in the month of May, will accomplish one task: work my tail off until my students graduate from high school. Consequently, progress on the jPod is merely a nice idea. The only actual […]
The Camp Cook Forum is having a little competition making dutch oven desserts (see the thread here). I haven’t made a dessert in the Dutch ovens yet so I thought I’d toss my hat in the ring. It seems pretty obvious that I don’t stand a chance though. I also thought this would be a […]
You may think that the title of this page has something to do with the jPod. Well, you’re somewhat right. It is that time of year when a teacher gets a few days off for spring break. Of course, as it is with most teachers, I have a lot of work to do on my […]
Well it is about time I got around to this. I have been meaning to add features to this website for some time. Here are the newest additions/changes to www.overlandtrailer.com: New Header Image – I needed an image that actually had a picture of the jPod in it. When I started, it was only an […]
