Five-Star Meals around the Campfire:In The Wild Chef saves hungry campers from freeze-dried doldrums

Aug. 30, 2012 - PRLog -- September 4, 2012 Boise, ID and Seattle, WA- Smoke Alarm Media, after years of granola bars and trail mix, is drooling to announce the publication of the new camping cookbook “IN THE WILD CHEF”, by Stephen Weston.  

We’ve done it. You’ve done it. An epic hiking trip whose highlight was the grease fire that took out the tent. Or even worse, the camping trip that left you with a bi-lateral hernia from hefting a 60-pound cooler of ice and soggy bologna.  And we wonder why the kids aren’t eager for a two-week vacation to Yellowstone.

It’s time for something better, and we have.

Stephen Weston has assembled, tested, retweeked, refined and completed what can casually be called a culinary bible for gourmet camping. In his latest book, “IN THE WILD CHEF”, Stephen offers a selection of over 130 recipes of unique tastes ranging from Thai curries to Italian desserts. Best of all, these camping recipes are light to carry, extremely easy to cook and are guaranteed to banish GORP forever.

Weston has been an active camper and chef for over 30 years. Time spent in the Army introduced him to Meals Ready to Eat (MRE) that seemed to be three lies in one.  And he knew there was a better way.  Three years in making, his pièce de résistance was complete. Tested on mountaintops and hiking trails across the country and world, these recipes are the first to elevate campfire cooking from the mundane to magnificent.

So rescue your favorite Scout, weekend camper, or Class 5 mountaineer with the new book, IN THE WILD CHEF.
