- What should I know about cooking over a campfire

Sure! Here are four different answers to that question:

**Keep it Simple**: When cooking over a campfire, it’s all about simplicity. Stick to easy meals like foil packets with veggies and protein or classic hot dogs and marshmallows. You don’t want to be juggling too many ingredients when you’re out in the wild!

**Get the Right Tools**: Make sure you have some basic tools like a long-handled spatula, tongs, and a grill grate if you can. A good cast-iron skillet is also a game changer for cooking over the fire. It distributes heat well and can handle pretty much anything.

**Learn Your Fire**: Understanding how your fire works is key. You’ll want to have a mix of coals for steady heat and flames for searing. Let the fire burn down a bit before you start cooking; it’ll make things a lot easier and your food won’t get charred.
