I made brownies for my first time cooking in the DO. I think I made a few mistakes. Obviously I shouldn't have used the garlic flavored olive oil :-[ . Any tips for my next attempt?
HERE is the video of the cooking attempt. I did it at the Spring Opener Rally at French Creek State Park in PA.....in the snow.

The brownies were edible. They just tasted a little.....odd. The intent was to take them to the pot luck. But then everyone had to try them and we did burn the bottom black.

Thanks for the video. This will make me feel better when I try my first brownies!!! Several of the sites I have been studying does say that you should have more heat on top when baking to avoid the burnt bottom. Good reference for the next batch of brownies!!! Oh yeah and not using Garlic Olive Oil will probably help too!! 😀
LOL it all makes sense now since i was camped next to you and got to try the brownies. I thought they had a garlic flavor I totally didn't know about the garlic oil. I tried them didn't think they were that bad besides that little garlic twist, next time add bacon or bacon oil because every thing taste better with bacon. But that's the title for another thread
I think I redeemed myself with my second try in the Dutch Oven. HERE is my vid of making blueberry muffincake. It fell apart when I took it out and I dropped some ash on top, but it tasted good.

I am going camping in 2 weeks and I plan on making the mountain man breakfast Sat morning. I will use charcoal for that since we plan on actually eating it. Somehow using charcoal seems like cheating but I think I'll get over it.
Liners probably would be a good thing to use for baked goods. I'll have to pick up some.

Charcoal isn't cheating but it may be pushing the limits of what is acceptable. ::) I have used coals from the fire a lot of times but I prefer charcoal. Oven liners are great to use while camping and you want little to no clean up. I use liners with pies, cobblers and cakes. Everything else cleans up easy enough. Have fun with it!!!!
I prefer charcoal as well. Liners are a must for cooking anything with sugar as an ingredient. The first time I tried a cake in the DO it turned out a disaster to get the DO clean. I basically had to put the pot upside down and burn all the sugar off the pot. But now I now better and love cooking in the DO.
