I am thinking of putting together som of the basics for camp cooking and period camping. 
Where do I start?  I have a big fire ring, a big and small coffee pots and a couple of white enamal cooking pots.
That's about it.  I have my eyes out for some cast iron that won't break the bank.  What else should I e looking for?

Paul, All you need to do is check with Del. He can tell you everything that you need. He is the Man, when it comes to camp cooking!

That's why I put this here.  I am hoping to pick his brain a bit.  And share the info with others at the same time. 
I like the dutch oven 101 threads, but a I don't have a dutch oven yet.

Like Del's thrift store finds, I would hit the thrift stores for cast iron.   Put them in your oven, if it has self cleaning, and clean the oven.  They will come out like new, ready to be seasoned.   Over the years, I have lost some cast iron to the thrift stores, not realizing why the charity box my wife packed was sooooo heavy.  Now she realizes the error of her ways, and we are rebuilding a few pieces here and there.

I found some affordable cast skillets, so Iv'e got those now.  a dutch oven is next.
I want to put together a camp box to carry and story everything in.  Sort of a mini- chuck wagon box. 
What kind of utensles should i be on the look out for?  What should I avoid as not historicaly correct.
I hope to make it to Rock creek trail days and maybe try some campin'and cookin' there.
