Dutch Oven cooking

As Scout Master, Dale has done Dutch Oven cooking many times. Using a dutch oven this weekend while at Caledonia was a first for me. I put together a meal of chicken and rice, placed it in the dutch oven, and Dale did the rest. So many hot coals go on the bottom, so many on top. In just under two hours we had a delicious meal!

The chicken breasts were so tender! The entire family couldn't get enough! Next time I'd like to try lasagna!
While waiting for supper to cook, Ashton found several "walking stick" insects. Watching and playing with them occupied some of our waiting time.


Speaking of insects and bugs... Ashton also found a couple of caterpillars that entertained the children as well. What's camping without bugs?

So, Sunday Chicken has a new title? Dutch Oven Sunday Chicken? You are making me miss my Girls Camp Days with banana boats and foil dinners!
