Just curious if anybody has used a open fire grill? The most I've done is wrap some corn on the cob in some aluminum foil. I had the idea to get these:

to use with:

These would take up less room than a propane grill and would easily be straped a basket rack. Someone with a welder might even be able to make a mount on their rear tire carrier to not take up space at all.
I think this is a great forum idea. If anybody needs camping gear or whatever, give me a call (extension 1141). I'm a Overton's Tech but sense they bought us out, I can always give you the best hookup available. (usually 10-15% off with free shipping if you're willing to pick an item up at a GanderMountain store.) I am by no means a vendor, but if yall need tents or whatnot, just wanted to let yall know.
I usually just wrap something in tin foil and chuck it in the coals of the fire for a little bit. On one of our recent campouts though we did use a grill very similar to that with good success, until it started to rain. Still came out very well though. I've cooked many meals in camp and never really "needed" either of those items, but could definitely see how they would be beneficial.
haha, I am new school I have one of these...

Wrapping it in foil and throwing it in the coal is bomb though!
Get this to grill with. lol

Thats actually pretty cool.
I have a coleman 2 burner propane stove, and a whisperlite backpacking stove that I choose between. If I have room I also have an attachment for my coleman to use normal sized propane, and have a 10# tank that fits pretty well.
When I grill on the fire I usually use my cast iron skillet, or a cast aluminum sandwhich maker. The sandwhich maker is slick because you can make just about anything in minutes.....grilled cheese, pizzas (bread, pizza sauce, cheese, pepperoni), croisants (croisant dough, roast beef, pepperjack cheese), breakfast sandwhiches (bread, eggs, bacon), etc etc I like it because it's quick and easy like Dave's mom, and much unlike Dave's mom I'm almost always only serving one person so I don't need much more.
nice grills
and Cody..
Might look into buying that ballistic grill, kinda different.
I like that ballistic grill too. Its pretty neat. Just seems kinda tiny, only 13x7
I actually prefer to cook over the fire vs using a grill. Usually get a fire going first then when I set up came. After the fires been going a bit and you get a good bed of embers...that's the best time for cooking b/c you have the heat and flavor but not the flame buring the shit out of the food and leaving the center raw.
I use a camp grill like the first one nc dude posted...and I use a "flip tray/basket" from lack of a better term to hold the steaks, chops, etc. Most use the tray's like I'm talking about for hotdogs, but I like it b/c its quicker and easier to flip the food and move it around the fire to cook everything exactly how I want.
edit...this is the closest I could find on targets website. Gander didn't list them but you can usually get them for ~$15.

all this camping talk... makes me want to go camping...
I like to cook over a fire but it is hard to predict when and where you can cook on an open fire anymore.
I carry a compact propane grill and stove for that reason. It seems to me that at the end of the day in an expedition set up you would be better off with both.
You can carry a folding campfire grille and use it when you are certain there is not a fire ban and then go with the propane if not.
I also like propane if it is raining or you are in a hurry to cook something. Clean up with propane is a lot easier too.
In addition if you are truly treading lightly then you will not want to leave evidence of a camp fire. Often you can find an existing campfire pit but not in all situations.
Washing machine tub cooker FTW! I don't have one, but I've used all 3 on this page:

Our club in Idaho had one just was expanded metal with angle iron around the edge and some adjustable legs. Worked great, used it all the time to cook burgers.
I have this, it works great and you can adjust the height. Of course you need to be able to pound the stake into the ground.

If you could actually compose a sentence in something that even slightly resembled the english language, I might be able to tell if that was a personal attack or not. But since you can't, that counts as a personal attack. See you in 3 days.
WOW. Kfab is that you?
