When you get a bunch of fitters, welders and millwrights together you gotta do some cooking...lol
What is your must cook meal or must have food for camping.

Good Grief, most of you posting here eat better on the trail than I do at home.
A question to those of you with the vacuum packagers...........the prices and options on these things run the gamut and I'm ignorant as a doorknob. I'd be a casual user (no commercial grade). Would those that own one make a few suggestions as to what you've found are must have's and what're bells and whistles.

Pizza mountain pies. Get a sandwich iron (the thicker the better) and stack it with butter, bread slice (both sides), caned pizza sauce, motarella cheese sticks and peperoni. Close and the iron and put it in the fire, heat until crispy. The first one takes 5-6 min because the iron is cold, but after that you can get em off every minuet or two. Delicious and social.
I have a canvas sea bag that they get packed in for travel. They either ride strapped down in the back floor board or in the bed of the truck. Depending on how many people are riding in the truck.
My kids and I love hot ham and cheese sandwiches. I get a loaf of french bread, slice it most of the way through and pack deli ham, cheddar cheese (real stuff) and mayo. I double wrap it in tinfoil, and put in near a campfire, or on my old coleman two-burner stove on low flame and roll it around until the cheese melts. Pull it off the heat, and tear off one sandwich at a time off the loaf as the kids wander back by because of the delicious smell.

The GMG Davy Crockett totally rocks. Last year, we did a winter trip to the coast of SC for 10 days. 3 couples. At least 90% of EVERYTHING we ate that trip was done on our GMG DC, and both the other couples had ordered one for themselves by the time we left. We did everything from brisket to cinnamon rolls. We also always do ribs while out.

All I can say, is now for sure I need to make one of the OB meet ups! Bring my extra big plate and see what I can beg off each person, then move to the next and so on tell full!!! Haha.
I like frying up red, russets and Yukon potatoes, adding in mushrooms, onion, garlic, black pepper, sea salt, beef sausage and some shredded cheese. Maybe a fried egg or Two on top of this. My kids look forward to this on all our camping trips! Benz.

I use the food saver brand, I’ve gone through a couple of them but I use it almost everyday. I open and reseal things like cheese and lunch meat, buy in bulk and separate stuff into smaller portions and seal up leftovers for reheatable meals for camping or at home. I also hunt and fish a lot and process my own meat. I buy the bulk box of bags at Costco when they’re on sale which is also where I get the food savers. They have an excellent return policy if one craps out too fast, but the current one has been going for a couple years now. I don’t use any of the extra bells and whistles like the canisters etc... I do like the pulse button that allows you to control the vacuum so you don’t crush things or vacuum too tight on stuff like t bone steaks that will puncture the bag. Once you figure it out and start using it regularly, you’ll start using all the time. It’s useful for all sorts of stuff you want to keep sealed up and dry.

We take a lot of trips with scouts or collage kids going camping and caving so for breakfast boil in bag breakfast burritos are the go to meal. You take containers of precut onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, cheese, bacon and sausage so prep is quick. First up starts coffee and a big pot of water when water boils each person takes a quart zip lock bag and marks the top with perm marker they then put 1 or two eggs and any of the filling they want into the bag mix it up, drop it into the boiling water and wait until done. Put the egg mixture in a tortia and your done simple and quick.
