We love making banana boats in the campfire. You can literally put anything in them. What you’ll need. Tin Foil, about foot by foot pieces depending on how large your bananas are. Bananas Chocolate chips Marshmallows Then you can literally add anything else to them. More fruits, berries, mangos, oranges. Crushed cookies Coconut Peanut butter Flavored marshmallows, we love toasted coconut marshmallows, the list goes on. Anything goes.
Cut all your tin foil to size. Cut stems off Bananas, leave the peeling on and slice right down the center of banana threw the peeling and lay peeling side down on tin foil. Now load on your toppings. We put some thinly sliced strawberries, crushed fudge cookies, chocolate chips, regular marshmallows, toasted coconut marshmallows. You put your toppings that you like. Make it your own.Now fold up the edges well and seal foil. We normally throw these right onto the fire pit beside the fire/flame but today we tried the cast iron tripod and put them in dutch oven over the fire. It worked very well.
They take roughly 6-8 minutes that depends on how high heat or flame you have. You want the bananas nicely soften and everything melted. Hope you enjoy these as much as our family does.
This is one of the best turkeys we have ever had. Crispy on the outside and oh so juicy on the inside. This is the 3rd fried turkey we have done. Turkey Brine: 6 quarts water 1 pound kosher salt 1CUP Molasses 2CUPS 1CUP soya sauce 1TBSP each crushed chilis and sage add large bunch fresh thyme 2 heads garlic crushed 2 lemon zested Put all the above ingredients, in a stock pot and bring to a light boil. boil for a couple minutes. Pour 5 pounds ice in a bucket/pot large enough to hold turkey & brine, place turkey in and pour brine over turkey. Leave for Almost 12 hours. I do close to18hours. Take turkey out, pat dry removing as much liquid from turkey as possible.Deep fry as per your turkey fryer instructions. Everyone’s turkeys are different sizes, so they all cook for different timesIts so worth it, look at that turkey! Have you ever deep fried a turkey before?
1CUP warm water 1TSP instant yeast 1TSP sugar 2CUPS all-purpose flour 1TSP salt This is my all time favorite pizza dough. I use this recipe for a lot of things! Take the water, yeast, sugar & mix. Let stand til foamed. Once yeast is activated add in the flour and Salt. Mix until soft and smooth. Add ball back to bowl toss with some oil and let double in size.
Spread pizza dough on your pan. I fill with garlic, fresh is best. Put loads of mozza and topped with some parsley. We have our oven down this week, awaiting for a part. So we have been BBqing all week.
BBQ til bottom browned and cheese melted. I serve this with donair sauce. Whole can sweetened condensed milk 1/4CUP white vinegar 1/2TSP garlic powder Some put sugar in this recipe, it’s not needed! We devour these garlic fingers fast!
Mix your favorite pizza toppings in a bowl. We used mozza & cheddar, green pepper, red onion, pepperoni, garlic & mushrooms. Mix in your favorite pizza sauce. Use your favorite pizza dough recipe or buy store bought. I added spices in with my dough this time. I make 4 large dough balls. I roll them out, and place a big handful on pizza filling on. I flip dough over, and pinch together. Place in calazone on pan and let rise again.
I don’t always but once done rising I bast an egg wash ontop. Beat egg, onion flakes, garlic powder, parsley, & crushed Chili’s.
Our oven happen to be down this week awaiting for a part to arrive. We practically BBQ’d everyday. I find they work well cooked on a heavy pan/stone on bbq.
Bake til fluffed up and browned. You are doing it over an open flame so expect to have some darker spots then others. All contributes to the flavour.Slide off pan, cool, cut & dig in! Yummo!
I make baked beans all the time! I’ve tried a lot of different recipes. For some reason I always go back to this one. We love it. This recipe was on the box of my bean Crock I bought 17 years ago and I still have it.We got a slightly different taste this time cause we cooked them over the fire. They were incredible! 1LBSb yellow and white dry beans 1/2LBS salted pork 1/2CUP molasses 2 onions 4 cups cold water 1TSP each of salt & dry mustard 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Soak beans overnight in water. Rinse. Throw the beans in your cauldron along with everything else. Make sure beans are covered with water. Cover. They take 7-8 hours in the oven. However over the open fire they are done within 2 hours. Cook uncovered for the last little bit.Lucky’s gotta be close!Stirring frequently checking on them.Mmmmm hahaLook at that sun, beautiful outside. I’m so grateful getting so spend the day with just hubby and I.Look at that dark rich color. Your going to love this recipe!
