I really enjoyed this book! There were so many recipes, to fit many taste pallets. Even some vegetarian options! I loved how in each recipe they tell you how many coals to use, and what placement. This is very helpful to the novice dutch oven cook, who doesn't yet know how many coals should be used, or the proper placement! It explains that each coal increases temp. 20 degrees F, and roughly where you should place them for your desired outcome. But each recipe also tells you how many, and the placement. I'm sure once I start cooking often, I will just know how many to use, but until then, this cookbook is perfect!I do a lot of camping in the summer, and I'm tired of eating hot dogs, sausages, and hamburgers. I want to learn to cook better meals, without having to buy a camp stove, and a stand, and use lots of dishes, etc, etc. I love learning to use a dutch oven, and cooking with minimal cost, and minimal damage to the environment!
