5 Cookout Recipes to Try this Labor Day
- Kendra Clapp Olguín
1. Bourbon Apple Pancakes
Kick your camping weekend off with a sweet treat! These bourbon apple pancakes are delicious with a side of bacon and topped off with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon. A cup of coffee on the side is a must, of course.
2. Campfire Pizza
To some campers, ordering from the local pizza joint is tradition. I won’t argue with that but to those interested in taking on the challenge of making your own campfire pizza, make sure you check out our guide that offers campers tips and tricks to make the process easier. Nothing beats pizza around the campfire!
3. Campfire Roasted Tomato Pasta with Burrata & Broccolini
If you’re looking to do something off the beaten path this Labor Day weekend, I encourage you to try this campfire pasta. Yes, a campfire pasta! The smokiness of a campfire is the perfect je ne sais quoi to a simple tomato sauce pasta. Topping the dish with a creamy yet mild cheese such as burrata only elevates the meal to another level. Chef’s kiss.
4. Campfire Nachos
Nachos on the campfire is a quick snack or meal that pairs well with sides you can make ahead of time, like beans and salsa. It’s also an adaptable dish that allows you to use gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, and other diet-specific ingredients. A win for yumminess. A win for everyone.
5. S’more Sundae
This cool treat is an ideal way to end a camping day. Actually, this sundae might just be an excellent daytime snack, no judgment. Either way, here is our secret s’more sundae recipe we’ve been working on for years. Yes, YEARS.
