Cheese Breadsticks

submitted by Rebecca Smith

 

1 roll Pillsbury pizza dough (pop open can type)

String cheese

Olive oil

Garlic Salt

Foil

 

Tear off enough dough to wrap around a piece of string cheese so no cheese is showing.  Rub the outside of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic salt.  Wrap in tin foil.  Place the package in the red hot coals of the campfire flipping every few minutes for about 15-20 minutes.  Use a long tongs to remove from fire.  Unwrap from foil.  Dip in pizza sauce if desired.

Variation- put pepperoni in with the string cheese before wrapping in dough

Sweet Campfire Pork Chops
submitted by Jo Anne Mudry

Ingredients:
4 bone-in pork chops, seasoned with pepper & oregano
1 box chicken or pork flavored instant stuffing mix (like Stove Top)
2 large  sweet potatoes, sliced cross-wise in 1/2 inch slices
2 golden Delicious apples, cored & sliced
1/2 small onion, sliced (optional)
1-1 1/2 100% juice - apple juice boxes (such as Juicy Juice)

Directions:
Make a "pan" out of heavy duty foil that will be large enough to wrap around the ingredients & tightly seal. I usually make it double thickness, sealing each layer on its own to ensure that no liquid escapes.

Layer ingredients in this order: stuffing mix, pork, apples & onion, sweet potatoes. Then pour in entire contents of juice box & seal, making sure there are no openings. Cook over indirect heat on very hot coals for 20-30 min, turning package every 8 minutes or so. Carefully open and check meat and potatoes for doneness after 20 min. If stuffing seems dry, add some more apple juice. Drink remaining apple juice and return sealed package to fire until pork chops are no longer pink inside.
 
 Hint, when this tarts smelling like Thanksgiving dinner, it's almost done!  The first time we made this we were one of only a few fall campers and we had a visit from a very large raccoon before we were even done eating dinner - came right up to our table.  This meal smells so good that it will make animals (and other campers) flock to your site to see what your are eating for dinner.
