Great thread! I'll be keeping an eye on this to gain ideas since new to the whole cooking on fires. Only thing i know to make is Pottage in a caldron.

I had some wild mushrooms, Agaricus augustus, otherwise known as The Prince (identity of said fungi confirmed by Geoff dann on here).

I took the biggest specimen and cut the cap up into squares. This I fried in some olive oil with 2 crushed garlic cloves, and a chopped up slice of torchon ham (from Aldi). Served with lots of grated cheese, and it was superb.

Chicken on a spit.
Cut a square notch into the fork of one of the upright forks, cut a coresponding square on the thicker end of the spit, then put split centre of the spit to take the skewer.
