David_Nicoson 1 Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Wow can't believe you all hate camping, perhaps you haven't done it right.Sitting around a campfire with great friends after a great meal on a nice cool evening smoking cigars and drinking with a billion stars over your head, doesn't get much better than that.I call that "going outside". Camping has for me been more about hauling around gear and sleeping with slugs, surrounded by 400 other people a few feet away.I could get behind a survival challenge, but not intentional slight discomfort and inconvenience.

Nikki_N 17 Posted August 14, 2010 Author Share Posted August 14, 2010 Never had dutch oven biscuits.Until now?Wow can't believe you all hate camping, perhaps you haven't done it right.Sitting around a campfire with great friends after a great meal on a nice cool evening smoking cigars and drinking with a billion stars over your head, doesn't get much better than that.That's great. I just want to pee/shower/sleep indoors sans bugs preferrably with AC or heat, whatever is appropriate for the season. I like to sit around the fire. I like to hike. I don't like living in the out of doors.I just kinda feel that by purposely sleeping outside I'm mocking the homeless.Nice. That was a good as a Dustin post! Link to post Share on other sites

SAM_Hard8 50 Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 Until never K. Still haven't had any. I'm sure it's a simple recipe.Good morning folks, caught up.Buy a nice dutch over, camp stove style with legs. You need a good place to cook, you can go from a nice spot on the ground and cover it with some heavy duty aluminum foil to using a fancy stand like this.Start up around twenty briquette in a starter like this.place a trivet or some flat rocks in the bottom of the oven, this helps prevent burning of the bottom of the biscuits.Line the whole thing with tinfoil.Place biscuits from a can in the oven and cover.Putt 8 briquettes under the oven and 12-14 on top.When they smell good they are done.
