When you think of s’mores, your mind probably jumps to sweet, gooey marshmallows and melty chocolate. But what if we told you that s’mores can be just as delicious when made savory? That’s right—campfire cooking just got an upgrade!
At Camp Cardinal RV Resort, we’re all about getting creative with outdoor meals, and these 5 must-try savory s’mores recipes are perfect for campers who love a little twist on tradition.
1. Brie & Prosciutto S’mores
Elevate your campfire snack with creamy brie, salty prosciutto, and a drizzle of honey. The crispy graham crackers add the perfect crunch, while the melted brie brings a buttery richness. It’s like a fancy charcuterie board, but handheld!
Tip: Want an extra crunch? Add a few toasted walnuts inside for a nutty kick.
2. Cheddar & Apple Butter S’mores
This sweet-and-savory combo is a match made in heaven. Sharp cheddar cheese melts beautifully between layers of graham crackers and apple butter, creating a warm, tangy and slightly sweet bite. It’s like a grilled cheese—but campfire style!
3. Goat Cheese & Sun-Dried Tomato S’mores
For a Mediterranean-inspired twist, spread goat cheese on a toasted graham cracker, then layer in sun-dried tomatoes and fresh basil. The creamy, tangy cheese pairs beautifully with the rich tomatoes, making this a next-level camping snack.
Pro Tip: Swap out the graham crackers for crusty toasted bread for an even more rustic feel.
4. Blue Cheese & Fig Jam S’mores
If you love bold flavors, this one’s for you! The strong, tangy taste of blue cheese is perfectly balanced by the sweet richness of fig jam, creating a decadent, restaurant-worthy campfire treat.
Pair With: A handful of toasted pecans or almonds for a delicious crunch.
5. Smoked Gouda & Caramelized Onion S’mores
Smoky, melty gouda and sweet, caramelized onions take this savory s’more to a whole new level. The flavors are deep, rich, and perfect for cool nights around the fire.
How to Caramelize Onions at Camp: Cook sliced onions in a foil packet with butter over the fire for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
