Part of the fun in camping is “roughing it” – making due with minimal essentials and cobbling together an odd few ingredients to create a meal over the fire. Admittedly, throwing together a pizza while camping sounds a little over the top. But, this simple, under-10-ingredient (or less if you opt for store-bought dough) recipe is surprisingly easy to pull off. All you’ll need is a fire, a cast iron skillet or dutch oven, parchment paper and a little imagination with the toppings. A few tips to consider before you take this recipe on the road: Try making your dough ahead of time and popping it into a reusable storage container. This will make life easier when you reach your destination. All you’ll have to do is grab everything from your cooler and get cooking. Depending on what you’re using (grill vs. open fire; skillet vs. dutch oven) the cooking process may take some trial and error. You may need to spin your pizza from time to time to avoid any over-cooking in concentrated hot spots. Also, try tilting the lid, or whatever you are using to cover the pizza, to allow steam to escape – this will make the crust crispier and eliminate excess moisture, which could make your pizza soggy. Lastly, before you get too far off the grid, make sure you have the proper beverages to accompany your meal – after all, pizza and a cold adult beverage go hand-in-hand, right? Cast Iron Pizza Recipe
