65 Fire Ban Camping Recipes
Fire restrictions are becoming more common, which can make camping challenging. What can you cook when there is a fire ban? We have put together a collection of recipes that you can make when restrictions are in place. Blackstone Camping Recipes are included in this collection.

Can you Cook during a Fire Ban?
Yes, you can still cook outdoors when a fire ban is in place. You just need to determine what the fire danger is and plan accordingly. Propane appliances, such as a grill, stove, or griddle are acceptable because the heat turns off with a switch.
Fire restrictions vary by stage and location. Some places allow campfires in a permanent fire pit, while others do not allow wood or charcoal fires under any circumstance. It is your responsibility to check out the fire restrictions or bans in the area before and during camping. We like to check InciWeb, which is the Incident Information System, to get up-to-date information on where fires are occurring. Then we cross-reference the local restrictions.
