What’s Your Favorite Campfire Meal?
There are five essential components to having a good campfire: fuel, heat, oxygen, good stories – and great food.
Earlier this week we asked the Outdoors.com community for their thoughts on favorite all-time campfire meals. We combed through the hundreds of comments and selected a few delicious entries:
