We usually eat "Shot or Caught" but sometimes add something store bought
DeerCamp typical meal plan is:
Dinner 1, "fend for yourself"as guys arrive at weird hours this night, sometimes an MRE or roadburger, sometimes a store bought lasagna, less fuss night since we are setting up camp...
Dinner 2, Seafood Extravganza, Fresh seafood chowder to start (this is my specialty and includes oyster/clam/shrimp/salmon/cream sherry/fresh potatoes/veggies and fresh cream...I make this in camp and it is to die for) Main course is Pan fried oysters and Razor clams, Yelloweye off the barbQ, fresh salad and garlic bread.
Dinner 3, Chicken Night.
Dinner 4, Taco Night, this is with pressure canned venison meat, sort of like a carne asada taco thingy, all the fixins...
Dinner 5 Grouse Night, shot around camp
Dinner 6 Ham n Yam night. Both canned. This is an easy one, both the canned Ham and the Yams can go home if you have enough left overs from previous meals.
Of course the menu gets all screwed up, when we have game down, it is time for me to cook up a deer heart horderve before the fresh liver dinner! I am getting hungry just thinking about it!!! :EAT:
By the way...I dont know what I did before I bought my Brinkman gas oven to bake in, or to just keep things hot...

All I know is that I think I want to camp with you.+2
A little to much for us. I try to pre-make dinners st home and freeze them in frezzer zip-locs. Stews, chilli, pastas, When we get back to camp at night just grab one out of the cooler and throw it in boiling water. In the cooler they act like ice keeping everything cold and the best part................... no dishes to clean :IBCOOL:
If there is just a couple of us I do the same thing just smaller portions.
If I'm backpacking its mountain house yum-yum :puke:

Breakfasts are sometimes pick what ya get....a quick hand held pastry, apples, coffee...etc. Lunch is often eaten out in the field...so it is what you carry....

One of my best memories was first weekend in August last year, my buddy and I headed up after work for 2 nights of bear hunting. We had to bike up a road about 2.5 miles from the car and then set up base camp. We then climbed mountains and hiked up valleys from there. We decided to take some good food. We have a deer cart that we can attach to my bike, so we loaded it with a full size ice chest full of food to cook. We had pop, elk steaks, hamburgers, stew (we call it Hunter Daniel Stew - named after my hunting partner) and desert to cook over the fire. It was great. We didn't get any shots at a bear (although we did see one and spook another one that we never got a look at) but it was really fun.
Overall, I'm a big fan of eating good when you don't have to pack your food in too far. It makes the whole trip more enjoyable. The only bummer is when you're hunting in August, you tend to hunt 'til dark, and you don't start cooking until 9 p.m. or later. I think that bear trip I talked about we went to bed at about 1:30 a.m. the first night, then got up before dark to start hunting. We were dead! It's really great in a November trip when you have a ton of time at camp at night to have some really good meals.

2 pounds ground beef
1 cup bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
1 cup milk
1/2 cup BBQ Sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
3-4 Yellow Onions (med-large)
1 Package of Bacon
More BBQ Sauce
Directions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, crumbs, egg, milk, ½ cup BBQ, onion, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix together with your hands until thoroughly combined.
Cut top and bottom off onion, cut in half and peel off skin. Then separate the onion into "layers". Use the larger outside layers.
Stuff your Meatloaf mix between two Onion Layers (essentially making an onion seal around a large meatball)
Wrap each "bomb" with 3 slices bacon and secure with toothpicks.
Bake in a Dutch Oven for approx 40 minutes or until internal temp 165.
Add BBQ sauce all over and bake an additional 5 minutes!
