cookshacks
Outdoor meal facilities
Cookshacks are simple structures used for cooking, typically in outdoor or remote settings.
The term appears in contexts like logging camps, ranches, or backcountry operations where a dedicated building houses meal preparation: The crew gathered outside the cookshack at dawn.
A cookshack is more permanent than a camp kitchen but rougher than a proper restaurant kitchen.
