Ok so you know how it is. We hunt and get back late but someone still has to cook a good meal that doesn’t take too long and doesn’t tag the cook for the night with a lot of cost. Has to appeal to the elders and the young Turks and has to have enough meat in it and fill the stomach.

What do y’all like to do in similar circumstances?

Boneless chicken thighs on the grill is my go-to. Drop frozen or thawed in bowl with brine or whatever marinate you want, put in fridge or ziplocks in ice chest before you head out. Only take a few beers on the grill, throw some rolls on the side. Same goes for conecuh.

Cook large meals prior to arriving at deer camp and vacuum seal. When you get back dump frozen meal into pot and cook some rice. Everyone is happy and full and clean up is easy.

Usually squirrels, ducks, or fish. We get the sauce pretty much cooked before the evening hunt. When we get back all we have to do is cook some rice and let the pot bubble long enough to have a couple drinks

Usually cook all day, hunt the evening, come in and eat.

Are y’all hunting all day? We normally get down by 10-11 and get back on the stand for 2or so. When everyone is at the camp one person is tasked with a breakfast meal for lunch eggs biscuits and sausage, while that’s going on one of us will start cooking one of the following.
Deer gravy, pork chop, itialian sausage spaghetti, white beans, deer sauce piquant. It’s a slow cook meal that we babysit and drink beers around between hunts.
When we in a rush the go to is grilled pork chops, sausage. We keep 10-15 pounds of various sausages in the camp freezer all the time.

We love eating wild game obviously so I’ll do a big specklebelly goose gravy and some fresh shrimp and crab in an Alfredo sauce with some pasta mixed in. That freezes really well. I also will do a sauce piquant with ducks and Tasso or good venison sausage in a tomato gravy. Plus, I always try to freeze sides like white beans w/ hocks or corn maque choux or smothered okra. Any smothered vegetable.

My thought process was that I want to spend as much time hunting as possible when I go and less time cooking and doing dishes. This allows me to get the most out of my trips when I go.

I’m not in a camp anymore, but I remember coming in from duck hunting to the camp when I was younger and my dad would start cooking something fast. It was almost always deer breakfast sausage, rotel, velveeta, and eggs.

He’d make biscuits or toast to go with it and everybody would destroy it. Anytime somebody says camp meal I think of that for brunch. I’m At night we’d always have some kind of meat/sauce/rice.

Cook a big pile of white beans and ham hocks prior. Just dump in a pot and throw some rice to cook.

Can make some mexican cornbread ahead of time and take with you.

Start a jambalaya as soon as you get back to camp. Do everything up until you season your water. Turn it off until after the evening hunt. Come back from evening hunt, bring water to boil and cook your rice.

Not really applicable because at most there are four of us, usually two, and the camp is in Alabama, but to last for a couple of meals I brown a pot roast in the bacon grease after breakfast and make a little brown gravy and put it in the crockpot with as many onions and potatoes and carrots and mushrooms that will fit. Salt and pepper and some kitchen bouquet are added and it cooks all day in the crockpot. Make some rice when ready to eat or put it on bunny bread.

Gumbo, chili, stew, soup, etc made ahead of time that you can pop in a crock pot before evening hunt and it's ready when you get back. Just make some rice or whatever quickly and you're ready to eat. MS pot roast super simple like this too.

Ideal days for me though is duck hunt the morning, deer hunt mid day with my son, then watch football, cook and drink beer all afternoon while others deer hunt the afternoon.

Mixed grill more often than not, everybody brings something, throw it all on the grill and enjoy, sides? Someone usually brings a bag of chips?

Boston butt pork roast cubed and cooked in a black iron pot and white beans. Makes for some interesting smells in the stand/blind the next morning.
