Good Campfire Cooking
One dark day on Usenet, "Matt" said:

What are some easy to prepare ahead (or don't have to bring much with you)
meals fit for cooking over a fire? What delicious meals have you made over
a camp fire?
Hubby's dad started him on these: on a large sheet of foil, arrange
ground beef with diced potatoes, onions and carrots. Season well (we
like salt, pepper, garlic, and Worchestershire, amoung other things).
Fold and seal foil to form a packet, cook on a cool part of the fire
for 45-60 minutes. I'm sure you could add things like green peppers
if you wished or even subsitute chicken for the beef. FIL called
them "Hobo dinners". What's nice is that you can get all the prep
work done, then relax by the fire while they cook.
I've always wanted to try a pizza over a fire myself, but
don't have much idea how that would work.
I'm sure some intrepid cook here has done it, but not I...
