Roast Dinner in the Camp Oven
Camp oven cooking. The camp oven half buried in the coals with the billy beside.
Well,G’day.
There’s nothing like a roast dinner when out camping in the bush. A forequarter lamb chop in the bottom of the camp oven, and half a dozen veggies: potato, sweet potato, carrot, parsnip, pumpkin and onion. Oil coating the oven with a good bit in the bottom and a dash of oil on top of the veggies to aid browning.
Some peas boiled in the billy compliment the roast meat and veggies.
Then to wash it all down, a hot black cuppa.
A bit of boiling water splashed and poured over the dishes and the job’s done. Next a relax by the campfire, watching the shapes dancing in the flames.
Wow, that’s living!
