Bacon and Eggs in a Paper Bag

Two strips bacon (thick)
One paper lunch bag
One egg
One stick

Cut bacon strips in two, place at the bottom of the paper bag, covering the bottom. It is important that you have thick strips of bacon as thin ones will stick to the paper bag when cooked. Crack egg and put in paper bag on top of the bacon. Fold the top of the lunch bag down and poke a hole through it with the stick. The bag will now be hanging on the end of the stick. Hold over charcoal, not in the flame. The bacon grease will protect the bag, and your bacon and eggs will cook.
