Title: First Night Meals Post by Snow_Dog on Jun 3rd, 2005 at 1:54am
Yeah, steak is good. What else do you do for the first night?
Here's one I am planning on using on my trip later this month. I test-drove it on my family and it was a hit. It took about 10 min to prepare which gets done at home anyway. Writing out the recipe took longer! Apple Pork Chops in Foil Thick-sliced Boneless Pork Chops Fresh Apple (about 1 per 2 lbs of chops) Butter or margarine Brown Sugar Cinnamon Ground Cloves Heavy-Duty Foil Core apple(s) and slice into thin slices. Get a big enough sheet of foil to securely wrap everything with about 3 layers. Lay half the apple slices out towards one end of the foil and smear a little butter on them. Sprinkle with brown sugar, then dust heavily with cinnamon, lightly with clove. Lay the chops on top of all this, then dust the top of the chops the same way with cinnamon and cloves. Lay the remaining apple slices on top and smear with butter, then sprinkle more brown sugar on top. Carefully wrap the foil around your chops and apples and then securely roll up the open ends of the foil. Toss the foil packet into the freezer until you depart. If you have a large group, split it up into multiple foil packs so they aren't too big to handle easily (2-3 people per pack is about right). Once in camp, get a nice bed of coals going, then lay the thawed package straight onto the coals. Cook about 10-15 min per side, depending on the thickness of the chops. Turn em carefully with a forked stick, OR just heap more coals on top of the foil and cook the whole works for only 15 min total. Carefully remove from the fire, slice open foil, and enjoy! Pour some of the sauce onto each chop when you empty the foil. Eat the apple slices right along with the chops. |
