10 New Things to Roast on a Stick

Move over marshmallows and hot dogs, there's much more to campfire cuisine! We've got 10 delicious ideas for your next cookout, so grab a stick and take note.
  1. Starburst Candy. Unwrap a piece, skewer it with a stick, and let it get warm and gooey before popping it in your mouth or squishing between two Vanilla wafers.
  2. Bacon. Weave a strip of bacon on your stick and let it roast to crispy perfection over open flames.
  3. Peeps. Okay, technically a marshmallow, but the sugary crust gets caramelized in the fire and makes the treat entirely new.
  4. Sea Scallops. Marinate first in lemon and sprinkle with kosher salt before roasting over the fire until edges are seared and crisp.
  5. Apples. Skewer a whole apple with a sturdy stick and roast over the fire until it starts to "sing" or whistle. Serve with cinnamon and brown sugar.
  6. Corn on the Cob. Use a sturdy stick to skewer an ear of corn and roast until you get a nice char. Delicious!
  7. Breadsticks. Wrap breadstick dough around a stick and roast until bread is puffy and golden brown.
  8. Asparagus. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper, then roast asparagus over the fire until it glistens.
  9. Kielbasa. Spicy sausage is a perfect match for open flames. Roast until the juices start to burst and bubble out.
  10. String Cheese. Roast until bubbly on the outside and eat straight off the stick or between bread or crackers with a spoonful of marinara sauce.
