   If you have the right equipment you can do a lot of neat recipes on the campfire.  My husband had a medium sized roasting pot with a moon shaped handle that could be hung over the fire.  He made stews by putting water in with his cubed beef and let it simmer while he cut up potato, celery, onion and carrots into the pot.  I'm not sure if he thickened his gravy or not but he just let it simmer until it was done.  I'm doing this recipe from memory since he has long since passed.
