I don't pack charcoal briquettes along when I'm horseback in the wilderness which is where I usually use the Dutch.  Wood coals are harder to cook over, but heat is heat.  You just have to learn how much is enough, or not enough....briquettes are much easy to regulate.  Happy camping.

Coleman Stove, Webber Grill And Dutch Ovens ( 12 and 10). Telescoping forks for hot dogs and Marshmallows. Can cook anything from Eggs Benedict to BBQ ribs with these items.

We use a Coleman Roadmate to cook on. Fire pit for sitting under the stars & a smoker for "the good stuff".

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.

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.

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
