Smoky Beef-and-Bacon Chili
Like most chilis, this one is even better when made ahead. You can even freeze it up to a month or so beforehand and take it along in a cooler. We love the smoky bacon in this chili.

Very Good Cornbread
This super-simple cornbread goes with any campfire meal, but is particularly good with a hot bowl of chili. Make it a day or two ahead and bring it along in an airtight container, then reheat in foil on the camp grill.
