FIre PIt Fun

New Food Night ---- Fall Weather -- Fire pit --- Nice patio   Let's put it all together.

We had a Fire Pit Food New Food Night this week!  We all enjoyed it very much.  Let me share with you.

Fire Pit Food was Miss Annette's idea and we are all so glad she came up with it.  So let me try to share some of the food and fun we had last night.

Gary got a fire going.

Bud enjoyed the fire.

We had hot dogs on a stick - but wrapped in a crescent roll.  Now I've checked all my pictures and for some reason I don't seem to have a 'finished' one.  But they were good.  This was Gary's idea. He had two types of hot dogs - regular and cheese dogs. We roasted the hot dogs for a bit to cook them then just rolled crescent dough around them and held this over the fire to bake.  Some of us didn't bake ours as long as others and the roll was a little doughy.  We all agreed though that crescent rolls on a fire are awesome!

Miss Annette had been telling us about Pudgie Pies.  Now no one but her knew what they were.  She had one Pudgie Pie maker that we all used.  Basically, it's a sandwich with filling - your choice, cooked over the fire in the special device.  Miss Annette had a meat mixture.  So you put buttered bread in the Pudgie Pie Maker and just a couple of spoons of filling then top with second slice of butter bread.

Here she is showing us how to put the sandwich together.

Here's that device just sitting in the coals cooking - a couple of minutes on each side.

And here's the finished product.

We also had some corn niblet ears. We just put these on sticks and roasted on the firepit.

And check out the Fire Pit Pizza Roll that K.C. made!  This was really good!  She took the pizza dough and put the filling/toppings in then rolled it up and wrapped in foil. We put it on the fire pit for 15 minutes each side.

This dish was going to be our dessert.

Cake baked in an orange.  Man was this good!  I just took oranges and scooped out all the orange (again I didn't plan ahead as this was a chore  LOL and now I have lots of oranges left in a mushy, mashy mess.  They will be used in garbage disposal).  Filled the orange 2/3 full of cake batter, wrapped in foil and baked for 20 minutes.  The flavor was unbelievable!

There you have it - our New Food Night.

Here's a few pictures of us just hanging out.

Can you guess who likes on-fire marshmallows?

I forgot that we also had marshmallows to roast and chocolate chip cookies to put the marshmallow between.

We all agreed it was a very enjoyable evening and we very glad that Miss Annette had this idea. It put me in the mood to go camping.  How about you? What is your favorite fire pit food?
