Pulled Pork Sandwiches Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 pound of precooked pulled pork
- 1/4 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce
- 1/2 cup of coleslaw mix
- 2 sandwich buns
Instructions:
- Start by warming up the precooked pulled pork. You can do this in a pot over the campfire or on a portable camping stove. It should only take a few minutes until it’s heated through.
- While the pork is warming, you can get the rest of your ingredients ready. Get your buns out and open them up so they’re ready to go.
- Once the pork is warm, stir in the BBQ sauce. You can add more or less depending on your taste, but 1/4 cup should give you a nice, even coating.
- Now it’s time to assemble your sandwiches. Spoon an even amount of the pork mixture onto each bun. Then, top the pork with a generous helping of coleslaw mix.
- Your sandwiches are now ready to enjoy. The best part about this recipe is that you can wrap them up in foil and keep them warm on the edge of the campfire until you’re ready to eat. Enjoy!
Sausage and Veggie Skewers Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 medium-sized sausages
- 1 large bell pepper
- 1 medium-sized onion
- 1 small zucchini
- 2 tablespoons of BBQ sauce
Instructions:
- Start by preheating your grill or campfire. You want it hot enough to cook the sausages and veggies well.
- While your cooking surface is heating up, cut the sausages and veggies into bite-sized pieces.
- Next, thread the sausage pieces, bell pepper, onion, and zucchini onto two skewers. Alternate between the different ingredients to make it colorful and varied.
- Once all your ingredients are on the skewers, brush them with BBQ sauce. Be generous, but also ensure you’ve left some for basting as they cook.
- Now it’s time to cook your skewers. Place them on the grill or hold them over the campfire. Cook for around 10-15 minutes, turning regularly to make sure they cook evenly. Baste with more BBQ sauce each time you turn them.
- The skewers are done when the sausages are cooked through and the veggies are tender and slightly charred.
- Remove from the heat and let cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your delicious, easy-to-make, campfire sausage and veggie skewers!
Fish Tacos Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 medium-sized fish fillets (like tilapia, cod, or mahi-mahi)
- 1/2 cup of pre-made coleslaw mix
- 4 small flour tortillas
- 1/2 cup of tartar sauce (or to taste)
- 1 tablespoon of oil (for grilling the fish)
- Salt and pepper to season the fish
Instructions:
- Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper.
- Heat oil on a grill or campfire-safe pan. Once heated, add the seasoned fish fillets.
- Cook the fish on each side for about 4-5 minutes or until it’s opaque and can easily be flaked with a fork.
- Remove the fish from the grill or pan and let it rest for a few minutes. Once rested, use a fork to flake the fish into pieces.
- Warm the tortillas on the grill or in the pan. Be sure to flip them once or twice to avoid burning.
- Spread each tortilla with a generous amount of tartar sauce.
- Distribute the flaked fish evenly onto the tortillas.
- Top each taco with the coleslaw mix.
- Fold the tortillas in half, and they’re ready to be enjoyed.
Note: You can also add some fresh cilantro, avocado slices, a squeeze of lime, or hot sauce to these tacos for extra flavor. Customize them to your liking!
