About Bush Cooking

Bush cooking is the ultimate outdoor cooking website.

Bush Cooking showcases recipes from passionate outdoor cooks from around the world in a standard format that any outdoor adventurer can use.

Currently, there are over 60 outdoor cooks and businesses contributing to the massive recipe database. Making it one of the largest outdoor cooking recipe collections in the world.

Recipes cover all facets of outdoor cooking including grilling, Dutch ovens, campfires, smoking, barbecue, and even picnics.

Whether your outdoor cooking preferences are traditional fire or Dutch ovens or using modern techniques like gas stoves or flat-top grills Bush Cooking has you covered.

The Bush Cooking recipe database is the brainchild of Saffron Hodgson. With an extensive outdoor cooking background starting as a child in Girl Guides and fine-tuned while competing in multiple World Championships including Dutch oven and barbecue, she has a wealth of experience to share.

More importantly, she saw the wealth of knowledge and the vast number of recipes that others had in the outdoor cooking world but didn’t have a platform to get the exposure they deserved. She strived to build Bush Cooking as we know it today.
