Have any of you ever cooked bread on a rock?How is it done,and when is it done?Is it worth the trouble?I would like to try this.

Try looking in a Boy Scout fieldbook. They used to also have a section on making a bread cup on a stick. Not sure if it's in the current ones.

I have done it before in my hunting trips. It is a 2 hour job and the first few times you may not make it work. Need a flat Rock that is less porous and the heat does not come from the fire but coal. It is great for he time you are partying around the shelters and have time to kill.

Oh,I thought it was just the heat from the sun kinda thing.

From "Roughing it Easy" circa 1974 Bread on a stick. Mix a stiff buisquick batter. Oil a 2" stick with oil or shortning. Mold dough ove end of stick & bake over coals until done. Slide off & fill with stew.

Another option is cake in an orange. Slice an orange 1/3 from top. Scoop out orange from lower 2/3. Fill halfway up with prepared cake mix. Replace lid & Wrap in foil & bake in coals 10 - 15 minutes.

I just cook muffins in my cook pot. I use the "just add water" muffin mix. Comes in lots of different flavors, like chocolate chip, blueberry, etc. To make the muffins, first coat the bottom and sides of your cook pot well with oil. (I carry olive oil or sometimes vegtable oil.) Mix up the muffin mix in a baggie, bowl or whatever you have on hand. Heat up your pot for a minute or so and then add the muffin mixture. (Don't add the mufffin mix to a cold pot because the muffin will stick somethin' awful. Believe me on this!) Cover your cook pot and cook over very low heat. If there is a fire going, I just place the cook pot near, but not in, the fire. Takes maybe 10 minutes or so for one good sized muffin. Yummers!

I'm on the if I don't die first plan.When I was 20 didn't think I'd make 30,when I was 40 knew there's no way in heck I'll make it to 70,It would be my dumb luck,and a real sick joke if I did,So here's to wishful thinking and long term goals!
