My Dog,
Mini
and
I Will Be Heading Out To The KOA Camp Grounds in Lena, IL. We Will Be Using The
Grill During The Stay and Will Report Back When We Return.
On the bottom of this Page is a form that can be filled out
giving Me, Your Camping Ideas or Experiences.
Monday
Lunch / Homemade Hot Dogs, Relish, Cole Slaw, and Potato Chips. (Easy to
prepare while unpacking and setting up the Lodge to accommodate myself and the
dog.)
Dinner / Delmonico Steaks, Marinated in Herb and Garlic Marinade, Baked
Potato, Broccoli, and Garlic Bread.
(I will start marinating
the steaks before I leave on Monday. The longer the steak marinades, the faster
it will cook.)
Now That
I'm Here, I can cook like if I were at home.

I can always change my menu as long as I bring the ingredients with me. When
I go out of town camping, I try to bring everything with me. Even if I have to I
get Ice twice a day (that's if I tent camp). I always have two coolers, one for
food and one for beverages.
Shopping List
This is were I go through my Menu and create a Shopping List
of Items needed to make this trip a simple trip.
Let's go through the sale items over the next few weeks'
I will call the camp grounds and see if there is a local
farmer with fresh produce nearby.
Produce: Cauliflower, Green Beans, Broccoli, Baking Potatoes, Tomatoes, and Corn on the
Cob.
Meats: Precooked Baby Back Ribs, Hot Dogs, Brats, Italian Sausage, Rib Eye Steaks, Veal
Rib Chops,
Porterhouse Steaks, Breakfast Sausage, Bacon, Ham, and Beef Back Rib Bones (for
the dog).
Dairy Products: Eggs, Milk, American Cheese, and Country Crock Spread.
Bakery Products: Sliced Italian Bread, Brat Buns, Hamburger Buns, and a Pastry.
Grocery Paper Products: Garbage Bags, Aluminum Foil, Paper Plates, Paper
Towels, Dish Soap, Scrubbing Pads, and Disinfectant.
Grocery Food Products: Bottled Water, Coffee, 12 Pack of Grillmeats.com Spices and Rubs,

If you rent a cabin, you will need linen and toiletries. If you can only
get a Camping Cabin you'll need Kitchen Utensils. Lodges and Cottages have all
the extras. Get a KOA's Extra Value Card if you plan on renting a Cabin, it
reduces the cost by 10%. Dogs are $2.50 a day per dog. The dog must not be
aggressive and leashed. Mini, my dog, is a Peek-a-Poo and weighs in at 10 lbs.

Adults: 2

going to be at the Camp GrillMeats 04'
Please make your reservations, then e-mail me at

Meat Products. We can decide what you can bring when I receive your e-mail.
The above, shopping list, will be updated as the group count gets larger. If
you are going to be Camping in the area of Lena, IL, email me and I will send
you an invitation to the 2nd Annual Grillmeats.com Camp out. There are still
Cabins available. You have to make your own reservations at
