Re: nothin fancy--
Yep Ray! Nothing like bush cooking, here is a tried and proven we have used for years;
Bush Tucker.
Roast Chicken & vegies
1. Two large aluminium trays.
2. Dig a hole and light fire to get good supply of hot, glowing coals. ****Caution**** Cover hole, or extinguish fire when finished so no one steps into it in the dark.
3. Place chicken in foil tray, pour oil (preferably “olive”) over chicken. Peel a whole onion and cut in half and place either side of chicken… Insert a clove of garlic inside chicken.. (Not essential)
4. Cover tray with several layers of alfoil (usually four).
5. Place tray on bare ground, cover with a thick layer of ash. Now shovel hot glowing coals onto the tray ensuring it is completely covered. Check the time!!!!
6. Prepare vegies, place in plastic bag and dust with cornflour. Place in second tray with olive oil and cover with foil.
7. Open tin of peas/ beans or what ever ready for heating.
8. Mix up a packet of Chicken gravy and water and place on side of cooking fire grate to simmer.
9. When the chicken has been cooking for one hour, place veg tray next to it... Once again repeat step 5.
10. Note the time and now heat the greens and prepare the gravy.
11. 40 minutes after recovering with coals remove chicken and vegies.
12. Total cooking time 1 hour 40 minutes for a family size chicken & roast vegies.
***The same for leg of lamb except 1 1/2 hours for leg + the 40 minutes for the veg. Total 2 hours 10 minutes.***
Enjoy, they are delicious.

Re: nothin fancy--
Here is one for damper in camp oven;
3 cups self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
Scoop of marg/butter
1 cup milk
Cup of water or beer
Mix the flour, salt & marg into a bowl.
Add milk to make a soft dough then add water/beer stirring with wooden spoon until you have a non sticky mixture.
Knead lightly on floured board until smooth. Shape into round loaf.
Place in camp oven and cover with sheet of alfoil before fitting lid. (Keeps the ash out)
Place on ground and completely cover with cold ash.
Now shovel hot coals completely covering camp oven again.
35 minutes later you have damper.
There are many additives you can experiment with. eg: raisins, cheese, baked beans, jam, vegemite, sardines etc etc.
***Note*** If you do add extras that have a liquid content extend cooking time by 10 minutes.
