    Frying is the most common type of campfire cooking that I do. I plan to try more dutch oven cooking but have not done so yet. Did lots of simple wire grate over fire with foil packets on the grate or directly in the fire in my canoe camping days.

    At hunting camp:

    This is my favorite style of campground fire pit. I considered getting one for the house:

      Keep an eye out at State parks because they might have some for sale cheap. Years ago Assateague SP had money appropriated to redo the 100+ campsites. All the sites got new fire pits and the old ones, just like your last photo, were set out behind the maintenance shops area. Snagged a few for about $10 each. Just a thought.

      Good tip. Lots of parks are going to the concrete lined ones. I'll keep my eye peeled.

      That is a cool set up for open fire cooking

    For the dutch oven cooking, there are sites or apps that will tell you how many coals to put under and on top to hit the temps you want. I used those when first starting out.
