My buddy made this one day while camping. He brought a cast iron Dutch oven and a tripod with some chain. Set the tripod up over the camp fire. Chopped some potatoes onion carrots celery garlic and cube some chuck. Browned the chuck in the Dutch oven and then threw in the veggies. Added some water salt and pepper, raised the pot and let stew for a few hours. 15 minutes before pulling the stew he popped open a tube of pre-made biscuits and threw them on top of the stew, put the lid back on and pulled some coals from the fire and put them on top of the Dutch oven. Campfire beef stew and biscuits.
I'm a big fan of foil packs. Protein veggies seasoning garlic and butter in a folded foil pack. Place a grate over the fire and toss the foil packs on, flip after a few minutes then pull and eat.
So far this one flabbergast me. How the cookie didn’t taste like stew 😅. But great one, thanks
I think the biscuits in the post are the American style ones, not British biscuits. The dough often come in tubes where you pull them apart and then bake them. They are fluffy, savory breads.
Ha got it 😂 I was there thinking they were chocolate chip biscuits
That's the best part. Flakey stew flavored biscuits
Not cookie. More like flaky buns or rolls. The dough comes pre-cut and stacked in a cardboard can, you peel off the label and whomp the side of the can to pop it open and free the dough rounds .
