Have to admit ..... anything cooked up by threedogs in his variety of camp ovens ...... I"ve had some good tucker out of camp ovens ..... but when someone else does the cooking, & does it as well as TD it's pretty hard to beat.

Heres the Paella again just to show how good you can eat with a campfire.
That pan is 500mm wide

That is a serious camp oven TD. Nothing beats good heavy cast iron for cooking on the camp fire I reckon.

As for the Thousand Island dressing on a roast, interesting. Sounds like it might have originated after consumption of alcohol, and lack of options...

threedogs
18th October 2013, 11:06 AM
@ BK its not cast iron the lid and base are an off cut from laser cutters for bead lock rims
and the pot itself is 16" mains water pipe 3/8th thick. Cooks well as you cant get it hot enough to burn,
Last roast was near on perfect with no coals on top {ncot}, just re heated lid when inspecting procedings.
Its home made and cooks a treat if not a tad heavy, just rotate 180 every 1/2 hour

Pizza base was homemade by Jess, Neil's wife and put together by his kids...........................all that Neil did was burn himself several times while cooking it, under the close supervision of Jess
Yes it was great

I think you cannot beat the old roast with garlic Cloves shoved inside, rosemary and veges slowly cooking away whilst you sit back and have a beer with mates.

And real men do not do coals on top. Coals on top is so 80's... Lol

Even better then that is to leave the oven out for a day for another meal the following night...yum bloody yum!!!

Really any roasted meat and veges, I make a raisin / fruit bread for smoko sometimes. Getting better at that. Great with heaps of real butter.

To amuse my nephews kids recently we baked a packet cake that was bloody fantastic, I do have a sweet tooth and had not seen a bakery for 3 weeks LOL

Might have influenced my opinion.

I heard if you leave it out uncleaned for 6 months that's great for flavor also ;)

I did 2 camp oven meals on the gas stove while I was away at Fraser (could not have a fire because of fire ban), lamb shanks cooked slow for 2 1/2 hrs and it was bloody fantastic & the second was roast lamb and veg, was good but would have been better with coals on top although the dingo that nicked half of it never complained.

Only use that oven [32kg] for weekenders as I can fit heaps in it, can feed 8 PPL out of it easy,
coals on top may be like swinging around a billy of tea there is no need but good for the tourists.
Plus its good for making bread, over the warmer months

Totally agree Andy and also it stops some drunken bugger checking the oven and dropping the coals in LOL

Go the COT, never have an isue with it one of my mates only puts heat beads on the lid and thats it .

threedogs
19th October 2013, 02:39 PM
over the last few trips with Bob and Roofy we tried on top and with out coals on top.
No difference whats so ever, I do put COT if doing bread, but 6 of one IMO .
Plus you need a good coal base as well

A few seasons ago, Dad cooked up some fresh black duck basted in in a thick fruity sauce, followed by milk and raisin damper. Still makes me slobber when I think about it. Hmmmm black duck. COT

Have to agree with above about the roast pork.

I like a stew or curry as well, anything slow cooking.

I like to cook lots of stuff on my stove, but got to love a fry up for breakfast. Bacon, sausages, hashbrowns, eggs, baked beans and fried bread. This will start any day well.
