Recipes for camp cooking

There is nothing better than cooking over an open fire, the smell of woodsmoke in the air and infiltrating the food. If you are spending your days at the camp these marinades can be made fresh or these can be prepared at home and meat, fish and vegetables can be marinading in your camp fridge prior to use, making a quick and easy meal that can be thrown onto the griddle over the open fire or onto a bbq.
