Good Morning, today is an unofficial holiday in the US, it’s opening day for a lot of baseball teams. Including my favorite the Indians. So good luck tonight boys.
It’s just a reminder that the campgrounds will be opening real soon, and some already have. That means it’s time to get all your camping gear packed, and ready to roll at the first hint of warmth.
My item of the day today is the campfire popcorn popper. Why? well, its a simple cool gadget to have, especially at the campsite. Please one of these next to a campfire with some popcorn seeds and a bit of oil, and you’ve got the whole families attention. trust me.
Here is a photo of the popcorn popper for camping, open fire cooking.

These popcorn poppers can be found at some of the following sites.

Camping Season is upon us, and it’s time to get ready to head out in nature and see what we can see.
Along the way, eat some awesome food, that is cooked over an open fire. And the easies way to do this is with pie irons and roasting forks, or as some parts of the country would say hoho pies and marshmallow forks. Either way, it all tastes good.
Camping, and pie irons and roasting forks go hand in hand, pie irons to make those awesome pudgy pies, and the forks to make those smores!
Here are a few photos of some items we found on a few sites, and the links to them.


Here are some sites to check out.

Camping with Pie Irons has become as popular as taking a cooler. With today’s fast paced world or attempting to squeeze as much fun into a camping trip as possible, fixing a huge meal with all the fix’ns is a thing of the past. On today’s camping sites, you’ll see more and more pie irons, and not just the traditional square pie irons, you’ll also see the famous round “pudgy” pie iron, and even some newer styles such as the wilderness cooker, that’s a slotted round iron. It allows you to cooker burgers with the grease leaving the iron.. we’re talking about an awesome burger right from the fire!
A lot of the newer irons including the burger cooker as include a double pie iron for quick cooking of 2 meals (perfect for couples).
others include the Panini cooker, the waffle iron, and the bread iron.
We’ve gone through the trouble of finding some places to get them.

Here is a photo of the Hamburger cooker that you cook over you campfire, bonfire, or any open flame. even on your grill.

Everyone have a great day and we’re talk tomorrow.

Today is my wife’s birthday, so Happy Birthday Dear.. Love Ya..
Camping forks and pie irons or some call hobo pies, mountain pies etc are fast becoming popular again. Sales have steadily grown in the last several years.
With today’s economy, folks are looking to still get that vacation in but do it by spending less and still getting the relaxation they deserve. That where camping comes into play. Let the kids run, sit back an enjoy.
Today’s campgrounds are full of stuff to do. Most have swimming pools, arcades, parties and events, and all have the star filled sky.. all to yourselves.
If you’re looking for gear, then campingforks.com and marshmallowforks.com are the perfect little sites for forks, and pieironusa.com and pudgypies.com are the great places to find those outdoor cooking iron items.
Have a great day! Mike

Hello everyone. I’ve got a product for you this weekend.
It’s called the “Wuff ‘em” stick. you have got to check out the web site at www.wuffems.com and see this camping, campfire gadget.
A stick with a head, that you place ordinary biscuits from a tube onto and roast or bake over a fire. This creates a small “bowl” in which you can fill with you favorite items like puddings, pie fillings, gravy, chili, and more…
This weekend, our goal is to try these out, and to try out other camping items that we got.
We got this new pie iron as well. It’s called a wilderness cooker.
It’s perfect for burgers and such.
It’s like a pie iron but with slots. These allow the grease to go through the slots and to get that “grilled” look. very awesome and a must have for camping this weekend.


these can be purchased from the above sites as well as others like:
www.PieIronUSA.com
www.CampingForks.com
www.Marshmallowforks.com
www.wuffems.com
www.firepies.com
www.pudgypies.com

Good Morning. This weekend was a great weekend. The Family went camping Saturday afternoon through Sunday.
We pretty much totally relaxed, and enjoyed a book or two. Took a few rides on the golf cart, started a fire, etc.
This weekend, Kathy found a recipe from Rachel Ray for some awesome burgers, and thought she’d try them. Using the Rome Hamburger press from www.pieironusa.com and from www.pudgypies.com she made some hamburgers with the pie irons with the slots in them. Very cool. A pie iron with slots, what an idea. We grilled the burgers and the grease simply went through the slots.
She also cook some veggies the same way.
What a was to use pie irons.
Here is a photo of the slotted pie iron.

1. www.pieironusa.com
2. www.pudgypies.com
