Servings: 4
Preparation Time: 30 minutes
Challenge Level: Moderate
What You’ll Need: 1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup popcorn kernels Salt and softened butter to taste
12-inch camp Dutch oven
Large serving bowl
What You’ll Do: Coat bottom of Dutch oven with oil, then warm over 25 coals.
Cover bottom of oven with popcorn kernels. Replace lid. Cook the corn, rotating oven a quarter-turn per minute to avoid hot spots. Remove oven from coals once corn popping begins to slow.
