Anyone know how to cook on an open fire?
I applied your question to bicycle touring because that's what this forum is about. I wouldn't want newbies to think that open fire cooking is normal for bicycle touring and I personally think its a bad idea.
That said, I have done some survival/minimalist backpack/bushwacking back in the late 1960's so I know what entails and thought it best to convey that to others.
You're probably best off going to bushcraft & survivalist forum sites for "how to cook on a fire".
Here's a couple of videos to get you started:
