Although cooking is no longer a requirement for Eagle, it is an important badge for learning life-long skills and knowledge of good nutrition and preparing great tasting food. Menus and recipes will vary depending upon the type of outing: Backpacking, car camping, or cycling. Backpacking outings require light weight food that can be easily carried and prepared on small, portable stoves. Car camping outings enable us to bring fresh food that can be stored inside coolers and can be cooked in large pots or Dutch Ovens while using charcoal or propane camping stoves. Finally, outings such as cycling may have meals that are prepared beforehand.
