Labor Day weekend camping trip

Hello everyone.  I've got a product for you this weekend.

It's called the "Wuff 'em" stick.  you have got to check out the web site at www.wuffems.com and see this camping, campfire gadget.

A stick with a head, that you place ordinary biscuits from a tube onto and roast or bake over a fire.  This creates a small "bowl" in which you can fill with you favorite items like puddings, pie fillings, gravy, chili, and more...

This weekend, our goal is to try these out, and to try out other camping items that we got.

We got this new pie iron as well.  It's called a wilderness cooker.

It's perfect for burgers and such.

It's like a pie iron but with slots.  These allow the grease to go through the slots and to get that "grilled" look.   very awesome and a must have for camping this weekend.

 

 

these can be purchased from the above sites as well as others like:

Camping Campfire pie iron

Hello everyone...

Well today is Friday and we're preparing to go camping for the weekend.  We've packed our sleeping bags, the coolers, the pillows, tents, gear, and yes.. the pie irons.

We use pie irons every time we go camping.  We make sandwiches, pies, brownies, waffles, and pizza too.

We got our pie iron this week from www.pieironusa.com but we also saw some great sandwich cookers at other sites like www.sandwichcooker.com and www.pudgypies.com

Anyways, everyone have fun this weekend, start a campfire and enjoy nature..

 

Also, we but a marshmallow fork this week from www.marshmallowforks.com and they are cool.

Weekend Camping

Good Morning.  This weekend was a great weekend.  The Family went camping Saturday afternoon through Sunday.

We pretty much totally relaxed, and enjoyed a book or two.  Took a few rides on the golf cart, started a fire, etc.

This weekend, Kathy found a recipe from Rachel Ray for some awesome burgers, and thought she'd try them.  Using the Rome Hamburger press from www.pieironusa.com and from www.pudgypies.com she made some hamburgers with the pie irons with the slots in them.  Very cool.  A pie iron with slots, what an idea.  We grilled the burgers and the grease simply went through the slots. 

She also cook some veggies the same way.  

 

What a was to use pie irons.

Here is a photo of the slotted pie iron.

Cooking at camp

Well it's Saturday morning and we're not camping.  We decided to take a weekend and get some work done around the home, and for me to put an extra day at work.

This Sunday we plan to go to the camper at the campground and swim, along with that we plan to roast some hot dogs with our new hot dog roasting camping forks from www.campingforks.com these new forks are awesome.  The come in 2 pieces and screw together to make a giant roasting fork.  Kathy also picked up some roasting forks from www.marshmallowforks.com so we can roast some marshmallows on Sunday evening.  The kids can't wait to go.

Here are some photos of the forks that we got.

Another Day Camping

Last weekend was great.  I took the Wife and Kids camping.

I know, I know..  We go camping nearly every weekend, but what made this weekend special.  Well, one thing.  It was a family affair.

I mean, I had it made, I had my wife, and my kids all at the same spot at the same time.  That was nice...

Yeah, it might not have been all weekend, but it was good.

My wife this weekend while camping thought she'd try something different in cooking this weekend, she made kabobs with skewers from campingfunshop.com.  They worked out really well.  She had potatos, sausage, garlic, peppers, onion, hhmm.  good...

We also made pudgy pies using these cast iron pie irons from a site she ran across the other day PieIronUSA.com and PudgyPies.com both of the sites had awesome camping cooking gear and it doesn't hurt any that i run them..  But we enjoyed making the sandwiches and pies with the pie irons.  They were simple and easy to use and easy cleanup.  We used a round pudgy and the square sandwich ones.

 

Later that evening, had enjoyed some marshmallows using marshmallow forks that she had found on MarshmallowForks.com and i think another site CampingForks.com where that both have a ton of camping forks for marshmallows, hot dogs, bratwurst, you name it.  The next day my Daughter and I cooked some of the sausage from the kabobs with the roasting forks and cooked them...  i'm telling you they tasted good..

 

Well, more later..  Have a great weekend, and go camping.

Mike
