Hexclad pan with steak over fire. As much as I like to call myself an outdoor cooking enthusiast, my idea of outdoor cooking usually involves a smart grill, a high-end pellet smoker, or some other appliance designed to take the guesswork out of the process. So spending two nights cooking every meal over an open fire at AutoCamp Catskills pushed me well outside my comfort zone. Fortunately, I wasn't exactly roughing it.
