Do you all have any fun recipes for campfires?

Thanks!
 
Kindling
Wood (Split logs about 15" long work about the best)
Matches
Lighter Fluid (Optional - makes a bigger flame for more fun)Pile the logs together and place kindling between the logs.
Light kindling with matches.I use lighter fluid if the wood is a little wet, like if it's been raining. Be sure to let it soak in for a minute or so before lighting.
 
KG- you are too funny! I would love to meet you in person some day.
 
are you asking for PC related campfire recipes, or just any ideas?
