Cooking Games and Fires


The colder season is the perfect time to fire up the outside fire pit for some fun cooking games. And with the fire pit you can have a bit of fun with your children and even by yourself. Grab some long sticks and a few hot dogs and marshmallows and roast yourself up something nice. The fire pit is a great way to keep warm on a cool night, but you can easily spend some time on the weekend enjoying the fire pit during the day even if the weather isn’t that cold.

Build a fire and let it burn down enough that you have some nice embers. When it’s lunch time or just time for a bit of fun, haul out the hot dogs and sticks and teach your children or just enjoy roasting your own hot dogs. Get creative with the fire and cook other things as well on various sticks. Marshmallows are an easy choice, you can also cook cans of things like chili in the fire or even potatoes if you really want to get serious about open flame cooking. Always practice fire safety, of course, in these sorts of cooking games.
