If you enjoy camping, you probably like finding new recipes for the great outdoors. You want a menu that’s not overly time-intensive, especially during clean-up. So, you can consider recipes like this one that utilize aluminum foil for cooking (no pots or pans required).
Giving your beef steak a figurative bathtub filled with butter makes it so tender and tasty, that you’ll want to make it at home too! There aren’t a lot of folks who have enjoyed their steak this way, made on a fire pit, so it’s sure to be a hit.
You will need a bag of charcoal and one or two pieces of smoking wood (optional). Consider serving with crisped-up broccoli or Brussels sprouts, glazed campfire carrots, cheesy potatoes, or corn. Oh, don’t forget some bread for dipping in all that buttery goodness.
