Camping Meals Rain or Shine



MAKE AHEAD RECIPE OF THE WEEK

 Meatball Sundae

This economical recipe is easily multiplied to feed the flock at the RV rally, weekly potluck or family reunion. It’s also ideal to prepare ahead, divide into right-size packages and freeze for future camping trips. 

Serve it as a main dish with rice or make tiny meatballs to serve in the sauce at Happy Hour.  Use readymade meatballs are make your own.


Add sauce, serve on toothpicks 

Meatballs:

2 pounds lean ground beef, pork or chicken

3 eggs, beaten

1 cup dry breadcrumbs

1 packet onion soup mix

Combine ingredients well. Form into meatballs and bake 20 minutes at 425 degrees, then lower heat to 350 to check for doneness. Time depends on the size of the meatballs. Food-safe temperatures are 160F minimum for beef and 170F for poultry.


Sundae Sauce:

1 can whole berry cranberry sauce

1 cup water

1/3 cup pickle relish

14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes

2/3 cup brown sugar, packed

1 can chopped sauerkraut, rinsed and drained

Mash cranberry sauce with water, relish, tomatoes and brown sugar. Stir and heat. When sugar dissolves, stir in sauerkraut and simmer 5 to 10 minutes to thicken. Pour sauce over meatballs and serve hot. 


CAMP SKILLET MEAL OF THE WEEK

Smothered Pork Chops

Get out a big skillet, open a can, and your pork chop dinner is ready in a jiffy. No need to cook rice or pasta. Chow mein noodles make a base while adding taste and crunch. 


4 lean, meaty, pork chops

Medium green pepper, chopped

Medium onion, chopped

1 can cream of tomato soup

2 tablespoons soy sauce

Optional: Sour Cream

Crisp chow mein noodles


Spray a large skillet with nonstick and brown chops on both sides. Remove chops and stir pepper, onion and soup into pan drippings. Stir in vegetables. Arrange pork chops over vegetables, cover and cook over low heat until pork reaches 160 degrees. 

Place a chop on each plate, stir sauce and spoon over chop and add a mound of chow mein noodles. Serve at once while noodles are crisp. Optional: topo each serving with a small puddle of sour cream. 

Galley tip of the week: When the pickles are gone, save the juice to use as a marinade.

2 pounds fresh carrots, peeled and cut up

BLACK POT RECIPE 

Peanut Butter Potage

This meatless stew can be made quicker, but it improves with slow cooking over well-started coals while the gang gathers ‘round. Add water or broth as needed to keep it from boiling dry.  The recipe is easily multiplied. Other root vegetables, such as white potato, turnip or rutabaga can be substituted for the carrot or sweet potato. 


1 cup each fine-diced carrot, onion and sweet potato

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

½ teaspoon ground ginger

1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)

3 cups water

3 chicken or vegetable bouillon cubes 

2 tablespoons ketchup

½ cup chunky peanut butter

Salt if needed 

Sizzle onion and sweet potato in hot oil, gradually stirring in carrot, ginger and cayenne. Add water and bouillon.  Bring to a low boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until vegetables are tender. Stir in ketchup and keep stirring while you add peanut butter by teaspoons. When peanut butter melts into the soup, adjust seasonings and serve.  Makes 2 to 3 servings. 

Suggested garnish: small pretzels, plain popcorn, minced parsley or cilantro, garlic croutons or sliced scallions. 


BE PREPARED 

   Stuff happens when you're away from home too. Be prepared for delays, breakdown, sudden evacuation, can't find ice, fire ban, supply chain interruptions, civil disturbances.  

How much food will you need for a week in the woods for two adults and two kids?  A month in a remote fish camp? A two-week power outage? See Survival Food Handbook for tips on buying, stowing, and making meals from ordinary supermarket supplies that need no fresh ingredients.

NO-BAKE DESSERT OF THE WEEK

Banana Boats

There are many variations of this oldie. It’s still a camping classic, especially for families. Everybody makes their own to order. Just don't over-fill the boats or there will  be a mess when everything melts. 

Select firm, ripe bananas, one per person. Cut a deep slit down the entire length of the banana, forming a canoe. Don’t cut all the way through the bow and stern of the “boat”.   Spread open just enough to make a small trench. Carefully stuff with:

Mini marshmallows and mini chocolate chips OR

Drained pineapple tidbits and caramel ice cream topping OR

Brown sugar, chopped walnuts and melted butter OR

Orange marmalade and shredded coconut, with a drizzle of coconut rum OR

Chopped pecans and chocolate syrup OR

Peanut butter and raisins OR

Your own invention

Now cup the banana in foil to catch drips. Place on the grill over medium coals. Roast until everything is melty and gooey. Eat as is or spritz with whipped cream.

SEAFOOD DISH OF THE WEEK

2 hard-cooked eggs, diced

Small can mushrooms, drained

½ cup thawed peas

1 can condensed cream of mushroom, chicken or celery soup

LIFESAVER SAUCE OF THE WEEK

Hawaiian Spinach Gravy

Are you serving the same ‘ol diced chicken or pork bits again, just because they are quick to stir-fry?  Invent a whole new dish by adding this colorful sauce from the South Pacific.  Add exotic crunch and sweetness to any bland meat or fish.

1 tablespoon minced garlic

½ teaspoon salt

2/3 to 1 cup coconut milk

1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Salt, pepper

Chopped macadamia nuts

BLACK POT RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Hominy Hot Pot

The outcome here will depend on the chili powder. If you don’t have a favorite start with a common brand such as McCormack. Long, slow cooking boosts flavor, gives the chef a chance to manage the fire and makes time for a leisurely drink before dinner.  


2 large onions

2 tablespoons butter, lard or bacon fat

2 pounds diced lean pork tenderloin

2 tablespoons chili powder

1/2 teaspoon each dried, crumbled oregano and thyme

32-ounce carton chicken broth

1 or 2 cans hominy, drained and rinsed


Sizzle onions in hot fat until they begin to brown. Continue to stir fry while adding seasonings. Add broth, bring to an active simmer and move to a moderate fire. Cover and cook two hours or longer, adding water or more broth if needed. Stir in hominy 30 minutes before serving. 


MAKE AHEAD RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Make a big pot of this multi-meat main and freeze it in meal-size portions for the size of your camping crew. Then serve it over whatever is available at serving time: white or sweet baked potatoes, zucchini noodles, boiled pasta, rice, crisp chow mein noodles,  et al.

Throw in everything but the kitchen sink. This recipe is easily doubled and it freezes well.  If you freeze it in boilable bags, just thaw and heat bags in hot water and you still have clean, hot water for washing up. 


TRAIN WRECK

2 thick bacon slices, chopped

2 pounds lean ground turkey, beef or pork

3 or 4 large onions, diced

2 pints mushrooms, trimmed and sliced

6-to 8-ounce package diced, cooked ham, salami or smoked sausage

1/4 cup water

2 small cans diced water chestnuts, drained

Small jar diced pimentos, drained


1 large + 1 small can evaporated milk

Water

1/4 cup flour

1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper

2/3 cup grated cheese such as Parmesan or sharp cheddar

1/4 cup dry sherry (cooking sherry is OK) 

Fry out the bacon and keep stir frying while adding ground meat, breaking it up. Keep stirring over high heat while stirring in in onions. When everything is well coated with brown bits, reduce heat, add 1/4 cup water and cover. Simmer, adding water or broth as needed, until everything is tender. Stir in water chestnuts and pimentos.

Add water to the canned milk to make 3 cups. Whisk in flour, salt, pepper, cheese and sherry. Increase heat to the pot and stir in the milk mixture until it thickens. Adjust seasonings. Cool completely and package for the freezer, allowing 2/3 to 1 cupful per serving. In camp, thaw, heat, stir and serve over the starch of choice. 

Serving suggestion: Serve over a starch such as rice or pasta, then shower with buttered bread crumbs, toasted sesame seeds or diced, drained Roma tomatoes.
