My brother has been doing a lot of research on the subject of local mushrooms. He's bough several guide books and has been combing the woods looking for edible species.

We went out camping on Saturday, and he randomly spotted a good sized mushroom at the base of a tree. He grabbed it, and tossed it into the chicken marinade (black pepper and vinaigrette). Then we tossed it onto the grill later that night.

Holy crap. I had no clue that mushrooms could be so meaty. What a pleasure to eat. It was just amazing.

So who out there eats wild mushrooms? And how do you cook them? I have to learn this stuff. ]]> The Campfire Michael http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/my-first-wild-mushrooms-3301/ http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/outdoor-pit-3298/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 23:24:06 GMT How hard is it to build an outdoor pit?

I Love, Love, Love venison steak! I could eat it for every meal if I had to. I usually will try to get at least one during deer season to put in the freezer. I have to be careful though, if I know company is coming I have to cook something else most of the time because not everyone likes it. ]]> The Campfire Alliegator http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/wild-game-3297/ http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/ziploc-recipes-3294/ Mon, 06 Sep 2010 07:54:37 GMT My mother recently bought ZiplocŪ storage bags to be used for cooking meals for camping.

We have. The only part that is any good to eat though, as far as I'm concerned, is the breast meat. My husband shot one during turkey season and we thought it would be sort of like tame turkey. Well, it's not. It's way to gamey to stand to eat it. He loved the tail though and had that mounted. But I am NOT going to bother to ever cook one again. ]]> The Campfire hummingbird http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/anyone-ever-eat-3246/ http://www.outdoorbasecamp.com/forum/f60/how-many-3231/ Tue, 31 Aug 2010 11:41:58 GMT How many coffee's do you drink a day during your camping or trekking trip?
