Cooking outside is one of the great joys of summertime. Whether you're camping, having a barbecue, or just enjoying the great outdoors, there's nothing quite like the taste of food cooked over an open flame. In this blog post, we'll explore a recipe for cooking outside that is sure to be a hit with friends and family alike.

Ingredients:

- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 bell pepper, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 can tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Start by heating up a large cast-iron skillet over an open flame or on a portable stove. Once the skillet is hot, add the ground beef and cook until it's browned and crumbly.

2. Next, add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet and sauté until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.

3. Add the drained and rinsed kidney beans to the skillet, along with the can of diced tomatoes and the can of tomato sauce.

4. Stir in the chili powder and cumin, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. Let the chili simmer over the fire for 20-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the flavors have melded together and the chili has thickened to your liking.

6. Serve the chili hot, garnished with your favorite toppings such as grated cheese, sour cream, or chopped green onions.

Tips:

- If you're cooking over an open flame, make sure to keep an eye on your skillet and adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
- If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, you can use a Dutch oven or any other heavy-bottomed pot that can withstand high heat.
- Feel free to customize this recipe to your liking by adding additional spices or vegetables. You can also substitute ground turkey or chicken for the beef if you prefer.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or frozen for longer storage.

In conclusion, this recipe for cooking outside is a simple and delicious way to enjoy the great outdoors while also satisfying your hunger. So fire up your grill or portable stove, gather your friends and family, and enjoy a hearty bowl of chili under the open sky.

ORIS skottle product ideas / Hard case for Skottle/burner
« Last post by DIRTROADTHERAPY on June 16, 2022, 12:45:37 pm »
Has anyone found a suitable hard case to hold the skottle & burner with just the legs removed?  No doubt you could fit some other cooking accessories in a case that fits that, but would like the case's inside dimensions to be as close to the Skottle as possible with some room for padding.
