Who likes Camping?? I mean REAL camping...

[cwarren72]

me and a few of my then work mates walked from Newcastle to Sydney Harbour via the great north walk once and camped along the way. Then once we arrived in Sydney we all jump onto a yacht and sailed it back to Newy. Was one of the best trips.

Nothing beats a lamb roast

There are a couple luxuries I have learned to enjoy while camping. One is a small gas powered fridge because nothing beats an ice cold beer! ;-) ;-) ;-)

The fridge leads to the other luxuries such as good quality fresh food. My favourite camping recipie is a roast leg of lamb or pork. You take your leg, debone it and butterfly it (sort of flatten it out, you can use skewars if you want). you can do this yourself or ask your butcher to do it for you - right Stevo? Then you coat it in corriander, rosemary and olive oil... and the secret ingredient, a little curry powder. The leg is then chillled and well wrapped and can be left at the bottom of the camp fridge until you cook it. Lots and lots of not too hot coals are all that is required. Toss the leg on the grill over the coals and let it cook slowly for an hour or two or three. On the flat side of the barby you can slow saute some potato halves (or do them in foil with slices of salami). The trick is to keep an eye on it while cooking while you consume a couple of ice cold foaming beverages in a comfy chair and your feet up on a log.

Why am I suddenly hungry?

Wow! My favourite camping recipee is a can of corn kernals :lol: I think my second favourite is a tin of fish. Actually, no, my favourite is freshly caught fish cooked on the fire Although more often than not I don't catch anything when I go camping and end up eating corn

Thinly sliced cocktail frankfurts in a Kantong Sweet and Sour Sauce.
Throw them all in a frying pan, put over the heat until they warm, stir and serve. I sometimes eat it straight from the pan.

Kingfish wrapped in foil, thrown in the coals, topped with nothing but lemon!!! The fish caught off the north coast (brooklyn).

December 1991. Boat dropped me on an uninhabited island in Palau 60 miles from the nearest town. Camped there for a week until the guy with the boat returned to pick me up. Absolutely fantastic.

The island was about a quarter of a mile long, but only a few hundred feet wide.
