What is the most elaborate meal that you have cooked bushcraft style or eaten in the great outdoors.Method is not that important,could be cooked over an open fire,baked in the ground ect ect ect.
 
Hmm, a toss up between a pit roasted wild Hog or an Elk back strap roasted over an open fire on a spit. Both were at the archery range near our mtn. home and put up by the archery club we belonged to during our annual members shoot. Nothing fancy, but lots of fruit and veggies, including Potato wedges with the Hog. Corn on the cob, home made bread and baked Potato with the Elk.
 
snail rabbit and pigeon risotto :shock: what? i thought it was nice, made my dad gag though :rolmao: it was like a bush craft paella :naughty: i had the snails purging in my garage for ages living it up on greens and garlic, went out shooting and came home and had a cook up in my back garden,not exactly cooking in the wilds but hey it was outdoor cooking :biggthump , PM me if you want the recipy :wink:

And of course i love my absolutely compulsory oatmeal (cooked)! :D Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, especially in the woods, so it must be prepared and cooked with loving care, until the smallest detail! :o):

Sounds fabulous that does Stuart.
 
uuuummmmmm It was ;-) The asparagus was a lucky find and the hedge garlic added just a hint of flavor to the stew...... the beach leaves we just munched on while we were waiting for dinner to cook.
