'Roughing it' in the great out of doors does not have to exclude great eating! That's the implied message reflected by the 225 creative, original, and 'camp cook friendly' recipes comprising Sheila Mills' "The Outdoor Dutch Oven Cookbook". A 'Dutch Oven' is basically a cooking pot with legs and a snug-fitting lid that is suspended over a camp fire. Drawing upon her more than 30 years as head chef and co-owner of Rocky Mountain River Tours, Sheila Mills has compiled superb Dutch Oven recipes for baking breads, preparing breakfast dishes, appetizers and snacks, both meat and meatless main dishes, and even some particularly wonderful desserts. The recipes range from a Posh Potato and Sausage Breakfast; to a Turkey and Brown Rice Casserole, to a Spicy Pesto Lasagna; to an elegant Yogurt Chocolate Cake. These gourmet quality recipes will satisfy an appetite and please any palate, making "The Outdoor Dutch Oven Cookbook" an ideal addition to personal and community library cookbook collections.
Camp cooking at its best

I've looked at a lot of Dutch oven cookbooks, and this is the best one yet. It includes recipes, information and ideas I've not seen anywhere else. I especially liked that Ms. Mills includes directions for conventional oven use. While some of the recipes may be more complicated than some camp cooks want to tackle, there is something for everyone here. I've tried several of the recipes and featured one, Witches' Brew, in my recipe column. Well worth the money.I highly recommend this to anyone who wants to elevate their camp cooking (or home cooking!) from hamburgers and a can of beans to a meal to remember.
Great for home cooking!

I am not necessarily interested in cooking outdoors but some friends said this book was full of easy, wonderful recipes. I bought it and use it all the time with great success. Now I am thinking of getting a dutch oven! I highly recommend it.
Great book for a rookie!

I just bought a Dutch oven and this book was given to me as a gift to help me get started. I have really had a great time cooking with it and it has delicious recipes in it that are easy and quick to prepare, which is what I was looking for!
Easy and delicious recipes

Minium campsite cooking impact information was useful and directions very clear and simple. There is no magic required to use the Dutch oven just a few Kingsford brand briquettes. I own several Dutch oven cookbooks which all appear to be written for boy scout leaders, nothing wrong with that, however, Sheila Mills' cookbook is unique yet easy to use if you want rave food reviews in camp. All the recipes I have tried turned out to be delicious.
