An iron kettle with little legs that sit in the coals with a flat lid where you can put more coals which gently cook the contents like an oven. To be really efficient you stack several dutch ovens on top of each other like this to make the coals on the lid of one cook the bottom of another.
The Solar Box Oven is a well insulated box, open to the sun, with a clear cover and reflective lid that helps to focus the sunlight into the box onto the food. Black pots absorb the most heat. Foods cook slowly like in a crock pot and never burn.
The Panel is another way to harness the sunlight and direct the heat into a black pot that is enclosed in a cooking bag. The advantage of the panel is that it can be folded flat to fit into a backpack and doesn't take as much room to take in the car or to store.
Lots of different foods can be wrapped around or skewered on a stick and cooked over an open flame. The classic stick foods are marshmallows or hot dogs but marinated chicken tenders and garlic shrimp work well too! The best stick foods cook quickly before your arm gets tired of holding the stick over the fire.
Almost every campground fire pit comes with a grill. Killer marinades bathe tender meats and make them amazingly flavorful as they sit in the ice chest waiting for dinner. Grills are terrific for foods that take longer cooking than the stick but don't need the tenderizing that comes with long cooking in a pot.
Pit Cooking starts with a hole in the ground, usually lined with stones to hold in the heat. Then you add a pile of wood and burn it down to coals. Layered on top of the coals can be seaweed or wet hay then the food is placed on top of that and the pit is sealed with more seaweed or hay. The slow cooking that results makes for amazing meats and baked potatoes for a crowd and the classic beach clam and lobster bake.
