The lounge sounds like a good place for it.  

I like chorizo and eggs for breakfast. Kahlua and vanilla ice cream for dessert

my mom always brought a cast iron skillet and aluminum foil and could make a great meal.  especially breakfast.

she would cut up potatoes and season them with whatever, wrap em in foil and throw them near the cools and after a while they were cooked and delicious.  with the cast iron skilled; she would make sausage, bacon and eggs.  sometimes she would make a thing called, "cottage potatoes".  it had potatoes, onion, peppers, cheese and whatever meat we had(ham, sausage, bacon etc.)  it was great campfire food.

mountain pies are also a good campfire food.

We go cheap and easy... Hot dogs & brats over charcoal, or occasionally "solar steamed" in their package on the deck of a black trailer.  At the dunes, we often do a shrimp/sausage boil on a propane burner (and feed the campground/motel neighbors).

Tradition for first night of quad camping is a big a$$ ribeye. Foiled wrapped cut potato's, onion, peppers, olive oil. In Lil Sahara, my buddy Joe made some wicked corn on the cob wrapped in foil with some Jalapeno slices, onion and some butter and olive oil. Kicked the corn up a notch for sure. He also made some Pineapple slices marinated with Jack Daniels and butter. Then grilled to perfect yumminess. Oh yea, and a cold beer...

For my first trip out to Little Sahara last year we headed up there with Wayne(atv fan) and Bryan (PieDiddy).. Upon arrival, in true cajun fashion, the 3 of us from Louisiana unloaded a burner and propane bottle and drug it into the room along with the black pots..By the time Wayne and Bryan made it there to meet us, we had the pots talking from the gravy that was rolling inside..To the Mississippi crew's surprise we had a "PONCE" smothering in brown gravy..What's ponce you ask?..Cajun food consisting of cajun sausage stuffed into a cow stomach lining..After dinner we had enough left over to make plates for the landlord and his wife..The next day they thanked us and complimented us on the food..Then they asked what it was..lol.I think Aarons graphic description sealed the fate of any more "ponce" being eaten by the landlords wife..He seemed to love it..
The following night we left the dunes a little early and loaded up on more crown and beer and got to making a delicious Alligator Courtbouillon (alligator in tomato sauce gravy)..Our buddies from Mississippi were somewhat apprehensive of our layout, and needless to say the landlords wife wanted no part of it..lol..Although the husband took his plate with a smile.. That was a great trip with some really good people. Hope to make the trip again.. Oh, and the alligator we cooked, is the one in the picture that we caught a few days earlier..doesnt get much fresher than that![ATTACH=CONFIG]979[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]980[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]981[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]982[/ATTACH]

Last trip to st joe rach and I stuck 2 lbs of chicken breasts wrapped up in foil "bags" with cut bell peppers onions carrots and potatoes and olive oil with random seasons. Prep at home and just stick em in the  cooler. Toss those in the camp fire for 10 minutes and consume with the cold beverage of your choice.

Though you can never go wrong with some filet mignons and toss them on a grate over the fire for a few minutes. Nothing feels more manly than tearing into a pound of rare steak with your bare hands. Go to your local meat market and find 'grass-fed' steaks; filet mignons are like 13$ a pound instead of the corn fed steaks that are twice the price. Yes I love filets lol

If we are camping overnight, we usually have a boat load of bacon,eggs and potatoes for breakfast. We've gone all out in the past with much more variety on the breakfast thing but have learned to just keep it clean and simple in the past few years. Dinner usually consists of ribeyes, Italian sausage and pasta salad of some sort. One thing I will make and bring on occasion is bacon wrapped pork-kabobs. Grab some bacon and thick center cut porkchops from your local butcher, cut chops into large cubes, wrap in bacon, stick'em on a skewer and throw on the grill. People cant stop eating those damn things so bring a bunch if ya can.

If we are day tripping then we usually have a couple chuck wagons (4x4's) on the ride with us. We load them up with anything and everything needed for the day. Day trips into the woods usually consist of chicken breasts, brats and hamburgers. Always cook over an open fire on these trips due to the fact its easier to just haul in a cooking grate off a Weber grill rather than the whole grill. Plus these chuck wagon drivers like to drink back at base camp, meaning the beer gets loaded first and whatever room is left on the racks  dictates how elaborate ya can get with lunch.

Nothing to exciting on our menu but god dayum theres no better feeling than high speed dirt, friends, food and sitting around the fire ripping on each other.

Lets see breakfast is the best, but in the evening on the fire dear stakes on a crate covered in seasoning and beer and ummm ummm good. And atleast one night we got to get pizza from the corner store made fresh there in silver lake. But all is best when with riding buddies and a fire.

Anything we cook while camping has venison in it from the previous years deer season. Lots of potatoes. Omelettes with green/red peppers and other stuff for breakfast

My riding group seems to always be in a hurry to get on the trail, as well as most all of the group is on sport quads, so lunch time cooking is out of the question. Nice easy & quick breakfast that we do is throw a couple pounds of hashbrowns in a fry pan and cook them down, then throw in a couple pounds of bulk sausage, cook down then top off with a dozen eggs. Break out the tortias, cheese and salsa and you have a hand-held breakfast! Lunch we usually plan our ride that takes us into a town with a known good restaruant/bar to stop at. Then at the end of the day, back around the camp fire, we do the brats, burgers, chilli, chicken or steak fajitas or if we are lucky enough to have our buddy from South Carolina on the ride, he treats us to steak that he buys a whole loin and cuts them himself. The man has a talent for getting them cooked to perfection!
