You’re right, Barry – surprised I didn’t mention that. It is something we used to do more of, but we still do it occasionally – particularly if the kids bring along some friends. We freeze stews in crockpot liners and just drop them into boiling water: http://tinyurl.com/27hfuhj

I noticed you did not have a precooked stew ( or any meal from home) ready to reheat when you got to the campsite…. makes the first night nice also..

We’ve been tent camping for years and still love it. Earlier comments about the chili for dinner the first night echo something my husband and I hit upon when our boys were still young. I always had it hot and wrapped the pot it was in in newspaper so by the time we got to our site and tents set up we could sit around the fire and eat dinner. I really like the idea of freezing it and using it to help keep the ice chest cold.
Thanks for the great tip and even better site.

Cooking really is a lot of fun, Matt – I love to try new meals and different techniques. We had some frozen pizzas for our Friday night meal, a few weeks ago, and they were really quick and easy (it helps to have a Weber Q grill, because of the lid). I’m going to make my own at home, next time.
