Try baking spam.

Thanks for the tip. I like it fried with eggs and also fresh from the can for snacks or sandwiches. .....Like others here, I always keep several cans in the pantry, as well as Chunky Soup, tuna, sardines and pork&beans. All can be eaten straight from the can if power is out.
I have a grill but I love cooking on my chimineya (sp?).
Love to wrap up stuff in foil and toss it on the coals. Garlic/butter, potatoes/butter, bacon/anything, sweet potatoes, etc.
Your post reminded me of cooking things directly on the fire in the can. Baked beans mostly, but really anything not in a tuna can. Corn, green beans et al.
It reminded me of my love of camping and simplicity. I really want to go camping, but wife is prego so it must wait!
