Cooking over an open flame ¿Any disasters?🔥✨ | Weekend-engagement N°230

Have you ever cooked over an open flame? If so, what do you like about it, do you have any tricks or tips to share, have you ever had any disasters?

Let's see, since I was very little I knew this way of cooking since in my mother's house there has always been this optional way and it is more than once that I have cooked there, and although I do not like the smoke many times, I love that the food is always with an extra flavor and exquisite, it really feels like a very Creole food especially soups, they are a delight made in this mode of open fire or stove as they are also known.
Also preparing the coals for a barbecue can be considered open fire.
A trick as such or rather a tip, is to avoid that the firewood we use is not wet or damp because first it will cost a lot to light and once it does it will be greater smoke than fire.
Disasters? They can always happen haha once I stepped on an ember and the pain was brutal🤣🫢.
One of the last times I cooked in open fire was right at my mom's house and learning how to make pizza in firewood, a totallllll delight and I would like to repeat another time!
