Ingredients:
- 2 Tbsp butter
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1/2 onion, sliced
- 1 pound steak, sliced thinly
- 6 slices Mozzarella or Provolone cheese
- Salt & pepper
- Buns (optional)
- Prepare the ingredients. Tip: I like to do as much of the preparation for camping at home as I can. The onion and bell pepper were cut at home and stored in a large freezer bag for camping.
2. Saute the veggies over the fire until the onion is opaque.
3. Add the steak and cook over the fire until done to your liking.
Tips for cooking with cast iron:
- When cooking with cast iron, be sure to season the surface first.
- Always use gloves or oven mitts while cooking as the surface of the iron will be hot.
- Cook the recipe over an open fire using hot coals, not open flames. A fire that is too hot will burn the outside of your recipe and not cook the inside.
- Be sure to clean the cast iron with a rough vegetable scrubber, rinse and dry thoroughly before storing.
4. Add salt and pepper to taste.
5. Top with cheese and serve on buns or as is.
I promise, it’s even more delicious than it looks!

Tips for camping meal preparation:
- Prepare meals in advance at home whenever possible. Leave most of the mess at home where running water is more accessible and clean up is easier. Trust me on this one!

- Use tinfoil packets, foil pie pans or camp cookers. These tools help to make clean up a breeze!
- Pack ingredients in 1 gallon size freezer bags for flexible storage in small fridges and coolers.
