It's not proper food preparation, it's fancy food preparation.
You can cook tasty, nutritious food over an open fire in a field. For generations, that's how it was done. In fact, the best gumbo I've ever eaten was cooked over an untreated scrap lumber fire in a spillway behind a construction site.

To make it fancy, you need all this nonsense.
