Have you ever been hangry on the mountain with your hunting buddies? Even worse. It\u2019s hard to be pleasant and have a good time when you\u2019re hungry, regardless of what you\u2019re doing. For many hunters, sitting around the campfire, sharing stories, and eating a tasty meal together is one of hunting\u2019s greatest joys.

Keep everyone in your camp happy and well-fed with the following cooking tips.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Continue scrolling to level up your cooking game on your hunt.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7 Expert Tips<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Plan Ahead\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 Like the meals you make at home, prepping can be the most tedious and time-consuming part of cooking. Before you head out on your hunt, do all the prepping, chopping, and measuring to save time and make mountainside cooking a breeze.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Use the Foil\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 Cooking with foil during your hunt may seem elementary to some; to us, it\u2019s one of the smartest cooking hacks out there. You\u2019ll find that foil is convenient and can be utilized in multiple ways.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Honor Your Kill\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 One of our favorite hunting traditions is cooking and eating some of your harvest with your campmates. Keep it simple with your seasonings, salt and pepper is all it needs and a quick sear in your iron skillet over the campfire is the perfect cherry on top to your hunt.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Utilize Convenient Cooking Appliances\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 If your camp has electricity, consider bringing along your slow cooker. Before you leave in the early morning, throw your meal in the slow cooker, and by the time you return, you\u2019ll have a home-cooked dinner that is ready to go. Nothing like a hot meal waiting for your return!<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Remember Your Protective Gear<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 If you aren\u2019t careful, you can end up with a painful and nasty burn when cooking over an open fire. Make sure to remember to bring your protective cooking gear like a thick pair of leather welder\u2019s gloves, a Dutch oven lid lifter and some vise-grips, and whatever else you might need.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Don\u2019t Forget Dessert\u00a0<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2014 Don\u2019t forget to end your meals with something sweet. Keep it simple with s\u2019mores, or brown sugared and buttered apples wrapped in foil, or something a bit more elevated, like Dutch oven berry cobbler.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Keep Drinks and Foods Separate<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2014 Your posse will likely be reaching for drinks throughout the day and letting the cold air out, making the ice melt faster. Keep your ice solid and food colder by keeping your food and drinks in separate coolers.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2><b>Contact R &amp; K Hunting Company and Enjoy the Cooking on Your Hunt<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, chef-cooked meals are not a necessity during your hunt, but they definitely don\u2019t hurt!
