Road Trip Cooking is a paperback cookbook by Arno and Mireille van Elst of The Holy Kauw Company, a Dutch couple who cook their way around in a campervan, packed with simple recipes for the campfire, camp stove or portable barbecue. Nothing needs a flash kitchen or a supermarket around the corner.

Good food anywhere you can park the van

Arno and Mireille's motto is that eating well is possible anytime, anywhere, and the book proves it with relaxed recipes that need a few ingredients, some wood and a box of matches. It's as much a mood as a manual, with warm outdoor photography from life on the road.

What's inside

The chapters follow a day on the road: Morning, Afternoon, Evening, then Drinks and Nibbles, with road-trip hacks and outdoor cooking techniques up front. Recipes are short and practical, written for one pot, one pan or a grate over the fire.

Highlights include a Paper-bag Breakfast cooked over the coals, Bread from a Tin, the Campfire Hangover Breakfast, Apple Pie on the Road, Salad in a Jar, a one-pot Road-trip Risotto, Holy Kauwboy Beans, Hotdog on a Stick, 6 x Skewers and Campfire Nachos.

Who it's for

Campers, caravanners, four-wheel drivers and van-lifers, plus anyone with a fire pit at home. It's ideal for beginners, and the paperback format is light enough to throw in the glovebox.

About The Holy Kauw Company

The Holy Kauw Company is Arno and Mireille van Elst, a couple from the Netherlands who travel and cook from their campervan. Their approach is simple, comforting food made from whatever you can carry and cooked over whatever heat is handy.

The Rub Smuggler's Verdict

Darryl Rubb, The Rub Smuggler

Some cooks need a full kitchen; Arno and Mireille need a fire and a parking spot. This is breakfast-to-nightcap campervan cooking, quick and honest, with recipes that run on wood, matches and good company. The Smuggler loves the Paper-bag Breakfast, bacon and eggs cooked in a paper bag over the coals, which feels like a magic trick every single time. Toss it in the camping crate; it'll earn its keep on the first trip. Bring The MeatEater Outdoor Cookbook for wilder campfire cooking and The New Camp Cookbook for planning gourmet camp menus. Pack Misty Gully Outback Campfire for the skewers. — Darryl "Coalport" Rubb

🏴‍☠️ Darryl's Secret: Salted Caramel Banana Boats

Dessert that cooks itself while you find the marshmallows.

You'll need: 4 bananas (skin on), 4 caramel-filled chocolates or a handful of choc chips, a handful of mini marshmallows, 2 crushed plain biscuits, a pinch of flaky salt, foil

Do this:

  1. Slit each banana lengthways through the top skin only and open it into a pocket.
  2. Stuff with chocolate and marshmallows, wrap in foil and sit in the edge of the coals for 5 to 8 minutes.
  3. Unwrap, scatter with crushed biscuit and a pinch of salt, and eat with a spoon.

Why it works: The skin steams the banana soft while the chocolate melts, and the salt keeps the sweetness in check.
