Campfire Christmas Dinner in the Woods. Cast Iron Dutch Oven Roast.

In this video, I head off to the woods with Maggie, my trusty Newfoundland to cook up a Christmas feast on the campfire. After collecting firewood and lighting the fire, I set about preparing the vegetables and ingredients to cook a full Christmas roast with all the trimmings cooked in my Dutch oven and a couple of Zebra billy pots.

Even Maggie enjoyed it (and she’s really fussy), dinner over, its time for a festive, boozy hot chocolate before getting everything cleared up and Cleared away.

I’d just like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your continued support over the past year. The channel has continued to grow and thanks to you all, I have been able to take part in some amazing adventures and challenges this year and it has been my honour and privilege to share them with you. Thank you!

I hope you enjoy the video and I wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year!
