Campfire Garlic Bread

Whether you planning your next camping trip or staying home.  It is super easy to make and a perfect addition to your camping or backyard bonfire meal.

Prep Time10 minutes mins

Cook Time6 minutes mins

Total Time16 minutes mins

Course: Side Dish

Cuisine: American, Camping

Keyword: Camp Cooking, Camping, Garlic Bread

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 1/2 loaf French Bread Loaf
• Butter or Margarine
• Lawry's Garlic Salt (or similar)
• Wooden or Metal Skewers

Instructions

• Soak the wooden skewers in water for about 5 to 10 minutes.  This allows them to not burn up once over the campfire.  If you have metal skewers these can be used immediately.
• While the skewers are soaking in water.  Slice one inch thick pieces off the loaf of french bread.  These are pretty thick so we usually make one per person.  Butter both side of the bread and sprinkle on the garlic salt.
• Stick the skewers through the bread.  Two skewers per piece works a little better when turning over the fire, but 1 will work too.
• Place the garlic bread on the campfire.  Cook until slight lines start appearing on the buttered bread and flip once.  Depending on how hot the fire is it should only take 1 to 3 minutes per side.

Notes

Makes between 3 to 6 pieces of garlic bread based on the size and shape of your french bread.
