    (From Codex)
    Add a custom field element for each post
    Adds a node from a custom field to your RSS2 feeds using get_post_meta() .

    Note: Custom elements like the one in this example are not a part of the RSS 2.0 specification, so adding it will mean your feed will technically be invalid RSS 2.0. Few, if any, RSS readers will make any use of the custom element.

    <?php
    add_action('rss2_item', 'add_my_custom_field_node');
    
    function add_my_custom_field_node() {
    	global $post;
    	$metaValue = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'my-custom-field', true);
    	if(!empty($metaValue)):
    		echo("<my-custom-field>{$metaValue}</my-custom-field>");
    	endif;
    }
    ?>
