US Forest Service cracks down on charcoal. But firewood is OK. ?

I pulled into the campground (Zephyr Cove, NV - 4th of July weekend) with my Weber Kettle in my pickup. I was told charcoal is prohibited but firewood is OK to burn as long as it’s in the fire ring. Propane grills are also welcomed. Luckily I scavenged some wood and the carne asada worked out.

Now I have to think about investing in a travel propane grill. I’m between a Weber traveler or a Coleman Road Trip. I only camp once or twice a year.

Check out the Auspit going in the background with a whole chicken on the rotisserie over the fire.

Had it running alongside a simple setup with a foldable grill holding foil-wrapped spuds and a few extras over the coals. Once the fire was right it was all pretty easy, just let the Auspit do its thing turning the chicken and taking the work off our hands.

It was great. Having the food cooking without needing to stand over it the whole time, and getting that charcoal chicken flavour we all love made it a great campsite meal.
