A little liquid soap on the outside of your pots and pans will make the campfire soot clean off super easy, apply with your damp washing sponge.

My friend Amy taught me to just line your bowl with a tortilla. Less goo in your bowl to clean off when you’re done eating.

remember that if you are cooking in cast iron to always re-oil it after your done, that is if the cast iron is rather old. Its very easy just whenever your done cooking take spray oil spray it around and wipe out excess with a paper towel. Its very helpful at preventing rust, especially if it may be stored in a garage or trailer for a while (even though i tend not to go more that about 3 weekends without camping)

Like the list. Try taking along a collapsible sieve or strainer to get all of the last bits of food out of your dishwater and pack them out with the rest of your trash. And don’t forget the biodegradable soap. I find that most regular campers don’t fight over dishes and clean-up, rather, it’s the ones who don’t regularly camp that are averse to “chores.” I’ve also found Oscela sponges work well and preserve your non-stick finish without scratching, and features a nylon scrub side for the tough stuff.

some great tips there. I agree, when you clean up as a group it is so much more quicker and easier.
