107 - Outdoor Cooking Methods
![Page from Joy Camps photo album displaying four photographs. Each photograph depicts cooking at a campfire, with meat cooking on wood spits, atop a metal stove, and hotdogs spread across mesh covering a large pit in the ground with hot coals. Most of the photographs show various campers tending to the fires and food. Original caption notes: "This page shows some of the methods we use when cooking outdoors without utensils, or 'wilderness cooking,' as some call it." For the upper left photo, the original caption notes: "Roasting a chicken and a roast of beef, and making a bread twist. In the rear are potatoes done 3 ways--wrapped in clay, baked in a tin, and wrapped in wet newspapers." For the lower left and center photographs, the original caption notes: "Hamburgers doing well on a Camp Roosevelt stove (1 gal. tin with fuel opening and chimney). Weiners [sic] starting to sizzle on our own brand of barbecue pit." And for the right photo, the original caption notes: "Chickens being done on a spit, and at the moment, being swabbed with delectable home-made barbecue sauce. And ARE these good?????"](http://images.wisconsinhistory.org/700014030004/1403000075-l.jpg "107 - Outdoor Cooking Methods")
