For some families the kids are already back in school; for others the start of the school year is just around the corner. Either way, all across the country the upcoming Labor Day weekend is a big summer weekend to go camping America. Plan to enjoy quality together time hiking and exploring , geocaching if that’s your thing, grilling some mighty tasty chops , and capping the perfect day around a roaring campfire (find campfire tips here ). Top it off by trying a delish fireside treat that’s sure to be a hit... doughboys . These little toasted tubes can be filled with your choice of fillings - chocolate syrup, jelly, pie filling, whipped cream - you get the picture - and enjoyed on the spot. Here’s how to make your own doughboys: You’ll need a “stick” about 1 ½ inches in diameter and about 2 feet long (pick up an untreated wooden dowel at your local home improvement store and cut to length). Decorate the holding end with permanent markers (this makes a great campsite craft). At the cam...

Here at the RV Cooking Show we have a thing for cities. There’s a certain buzz, an abundance of culture and cuisine, and a sense of urgency that calls to us. When the opportunity to go RVing in or on the edge of a city presents itself we are tickled. That’s just what happened to us in St Louis – a generous host offering plenty of free things to do and see. Sure, you could spend a bundle if you wish, but you can just as easily fill up your days (and senses) with complimentary admissions, neighborhood strolls, etc. Find out what freebies we loved in St Louis then join us as we grill pork chops and top them with a magical compound butter (a fancy way of saying butter with a few mix-ins).

Greetings campers, It’s official…summer is here…and you know what that means…grilling season is upon us! Many of us can’t wait to pack the camper, set up in our favorite RV park or campground (found at Go Camping  America , perhaps?), break out the grill and kick back. Several of you have written asking me about what I pack in the RV Cooking Show kitchen. We’ve already seen what pots and pans I like have on hand, now we’ll talk about the eats. In this episode I’ll give you a sneak peek inside my RV kitchen pantry and spend some quality time talking about what I find essential to carry with me in my RV kitchen cupboard. I’ve even developed a checklist that you can print out and make your own. You can find it here.   Once we get everything put away we’ll go outside and grill. On the menu today is a terrific grilled portabella mushroom "burger", amazing "stewed" grilled blue cheese tomatoes, and a potato chip salad. Watch this episode of my RVTV below and go ahead, ...
