As I’ve mentioned in the past, when it comes to camp food I have two main requirements when selecting new meal ideas for our camping trips: They have to be simple, and they have to be crowd pleasers. Today’s recipe, tasty Campfire Beef BBQ Goulash, met both requirements. Like its close cousin, Stovetop Goulash, it’s hearty comfort food that you can pull together quickly, so after a
Favorite Things May 2017
Last year we launched this “Favorite Things” series as a way to highlight some of the fun things going on behind the scenes here at The Touring Camper. We try to post daily over on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, but a lot of what we post on social media we never get a chance to share on the blog. So here are some of our favorite moments from May:
Introducing the Campsite Spotlight!
Remember several weeks back when we did that little survey to learn more about what you all are interested in reading here at The Touring Camper? Well, one of the things we gleaned from your responses is that y’all really like the campground reviews … but only if the campgrounds are in your neck of the woods.

Monthly Morsel: Campfire Oatmeal
As a child I grew up eating plain, old-fashioned oatmeal with brown sugar and milk. Jarrett grew up on instant oatmeal packets, and he still loves stirring up the Maple & Brown Sugar flavor packets when we go camping.

Monthly Morsel: Camping Goulash
Today I’m sharing another one of my favorite, easy camping recipes: Camping Stovetop Goulash. It’s hearty comfort food that you can pull together in as little as 30 minutes, so after a fun day of exploring you can get dinner on the picnic table in a jiffy. You can prepare this versatile recipe on an RV stove or camping stove, or you can cook it in a dutch oven over a
Monthly Ministry: Motorhome Ministry
A year ago we launched this monthly ministry feature at The Touring Camper to highlight ways campers, RVers, hikers, backpackers, or outdoor enthusiasts can get involved in service opportunities and give back to their communities. This month we are spotlighting the Motorhome Ministry, an outreach we stumbled across while camping at Mustang Island State Park in Corpus Christi, Texas. Founders Larry and Lugene Hammond shared a little bit about
Monthly Morsel: Fiesta Soup
Last week I shared with you my secret tips for no-fail RV menu planning. When plotting our travel menu, I like to select easy camping recipes that can be prepared in a variety of ways–some nights we’ll have a campfire meal, other nights I dish out of a slow cooker, and some nights I whip up a one-pot wonder in the camper kitchen. My goal is always to keep things
