It's a given that while camping... one night is going to be ribeye night. If I'm lucky enough to find crab legs, I throw them on the fire too. :)
I get the fire going first.. it takes about 45 minutes depending on how many hot coals I need..
then split the tatoes, add a slice of onion, bacon, salt, pepper and butter...
The potatoes go on first, then the skillet of mushrooms with onion and garlic, S&P. Next the garlic butter...
When the tatoes are tender I move them to the side, move the shrooms and garlic butter to the side, add a squeeze of fresh lemon to the butter, add seasoned ribeyes. Then the crab legs go on the low heat side of the fire.
Last I add some asparagus drizzled with oil and seasoned with kosher salt and cracked black pepper.
The grilled asparagus, bacon potatoes, grilled ribeye with shrooms, smokey crab legs.....and I cut down a plastic cup to hold my garlic butter..
Gotta be my favorite campfire food..... :)
I'm ready to go again!!

I have recently found your blog through the bbq brethern. I LOVE IT!!!! Everything your cooking looks awesome. I'm going to try the bacon potatoes this weekend.
thanks
Jeanie
That looks sooooooooo good!
Dungeness crab too... WOW I didn't realize them crab could swim that far...... :) Or did ya sneak into town when I wasn't lookin'?
Hope it cools off a bit in your neck of the woods.. I'm sure you AND the "critters" could use some cool weather.
Thanks so much Anonymous! I hope the tatoes work out well for you. Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by! :)
Thanks Rick! I think these were called "rock" crab legs. I've never had them before but they were great!
Hope your summer is going well, I could use some rain if ya get any extra your way. :)
Thanks...
An awesome meal Jeanie!! Some of my favorite food. Taters sure look good too, I will have to try that. Don
The food looks great (as always) but I'm digging the fire pit and the cooking grid!
A meal fit for a BBQ / Grilling Queen! What I love most about your posts is that they always take me to a new place where my concepts of outdoor cooking are concerned!
I can't imagine cooking over that fire in the heat you folks are having but it looks like two other lucky people are glad you're willing. The meal looks incredible - as most of yours do. How bout I park our motor home in that campground, go buy a bunch of groceries and you do the cooking.
Looks killer! I"m going to try those potatoes ASAP!
Thank you Smokin Don! It's one of my favorites when camping. The campfire smoke adds a lot to the food too. Good to see ya! :)
David Thanks! I really get a lot of use out of that grate.. it works so well on most firepits.
Hope you're having a nice week!
Thanks so much Kevin! I think anything cooked indoors or on a grill can be cooked over a campfire. :)
Larry it was a bit hot alrighty! :)
Breakfasts weren't so bad but the evening meals were a bit warm.
I bet you and Bev cook some wonderful campfire meals!! I've seen what you make at home. :)
Thanks Larry..
Thanks Unknown! Hope they turn out well for you. I love the flavor bacon adds to the tatoes.
Thanks for stopping by too! :)
That's it!!! No Mas, No Mas!! You are the NO. 1 campfire chef in my book. I would love to buy a Cowgirl's Campfire Cooking cookbook. You have more than enough material and it would be a neat little project. You are truly an inspiration to a lot of folks.
Now that I just had my 2nd cup of coffee this fine Guam morning, I am thinking about what to cook.
Thanks again Cowgirl. Give my best to your friend. Hope he's doing better. You all are still in our prayers....
-Rueben from Guam-
Rueben you are so kind..Thank you!!
My friend is still having a rough time right now. I will send your well wishes onto him. Thanks so much. (((HUGS)))
hay cowgirl! I've noticed your little red beer huggie has not been in your pics lately. Do we need to call the F B.I.?:) As usual your meal looks great!! Thanks for sharing with us. Hope you have a blessed day your friend Mark.:)
Cowgirl sorry to hear about your friend. Hope he gets better soon! I don't know his name but if you can give it i will put him on our prayer list at church. We will also be praying for you! Your friend Mark.
I think we have the same taste buds Jeanie. Those are all my favorite things and you make em look pretty tempting. I know what I'm gonna be cooking on the fire soon.
haha Mark, I still use the red koozie. Not sure why I didn't take pics of it lately though :)
You're so kind Mark.. Mr Q could use some good thoughts and prayers. He's an extremely kind person who deserves the best. Life's just been a bit tough for him lately. Thanks Mark! (((HUGS)))
Mark how have you been? Hope all is going well for you. We do seem to have the same taste in food. I'm going to have to send a brisket for you to try sometime. I remember you said you hadn't tried one. I bet you would like them! :)
Yep you're gonna have to fire up your grill one of these days when you get the chance.
Thanks Mark...
Rueben and Triple T Mark, my friend said to tell you Thank you!!
He wishes he could tell you himself right now.
(((HUGS))) to both of you from me. :)
You know cowgirl, usually when people go camping the are "roughing it?!" Not you! If, ever in my life, I go camping again it must be with you :O)
lol Thanks Mrs JP! You would be welcome at my camp.:)
I do believe this might be the best meal ever served on paper plates. Amazing looking.
Thanks Chris!! (((HUGS))) :)
