I found a nifty little grate on line ( I will try to find out the info on it ) it is a metal rod with an arrow shaped point you drive in the ground near a fire ring, then the square roughly 28X12 chromed grill with a coiled metal cool handle slips over the rod and you can move it up and down to adjust the temp, it works great and I think I paid 35 dollars for it. nothing like grilled over an open fire meal to add extra flavor to camping cuisine.

If we DON'T have a fire it is cause for extra planning. This weekend hubby used his ancient round grill screen and an old metal rod with tape on one end. Start the fire early, cook over the resultant coals, using wood or sometime charcoal briquettes. The metal grill balances on the edge of fire pit on one side, with other side balances on the metal rod placed across the top edge of the pit. Sorry no pics. We always cook sausages, steak, whole peppers, potatoes in foil, skewers, or grilled flatbread. We had grilled peaches for dessert. Corn is almost ready, so soak it in water for one hour (in the husk) and cook it slow over the fire to steam. Like I said, no firepit means a rethink on the menu. My backup is a trusty cast iron skillet on the Pod stove, or gonna make a lava brownie dessert in it over the fire.

A few years back my son was tossing out an old fireplace tool set. I kept the wood tongs and have used them since. You can get these at garage sales for a buck or buy them from a camper supply for $30 or the Log claw for $50. Just saying

I cook outside on a Weber portable gas grill. I had a quick disconnect installed on the front of the trailer plumbed into the two 5 lb gas bottles. I also use a Coleman white gas two burner stove, purchased new about 50 years ago. Still going strong. Safe Travels.

We have a neat little chromed griddle that came In two pieces. there is a metal rod that drives into the ground next to the fire pit then there is a metal mesh grill that has a hole in the middle at the balance point and a coiled wire handle that does not get hot. you can swing the grill left or right for temperature control and it has an interference fit that allows it to be moved up and down to get it closer to the coals , it works great. I did an online search for camp fire grills and I think it was under 40 bucks delivered. I do hamburgers, grill chicken, bake potato's its a great feature, it is flat for storage In the rear garage.
