A Little Cooking

[callshot]

I thought that I would try some Dutch Oven cooking today. I remembered I had a propane stove that I have never used. I got it out and a Dutch Oven to see if it would fit. It did.


I threw together some taters from my garden. They were Idaho playground brand taters.


I got some onion ready also while the bacon was cooking down.


Here is the finished product. I ate some just to see if they were edible. They were.


I don't know if I can eat a whole Dutch oven full of taters or not.


I hated to do it but I ate about half of them. I live alone so it took a minute or two.


As you can see from the leatherman that it was just a little cooking. I must have been bored today. I ate the other half for dinner just a minute ago. If I had cooked any more ol'e Dick would have smelled them and came running with a fork. Steve

That is indeed a small Dutch Oven, where might a man that loves to cook locate one of those things

I used to have a Dutch oven like that one on my key chain.....

It was one that had a candle in it. I got it at a store that sells ranch and farm supplies along with cast iron stuff of all sorts.

I was there when he "cooked" them & they were burnt so bad you couldn't tell the taters from the oven (black) the neighbor called the fire department & his grandson thought a skunk had got in the garage. But....Callshot being Callshot, he ate them anyway. He'll probably be sick tomorrow & won't be able to go hunting. Had him on 2 herds of elk today & he wouldn't shoot. Got a brand new FA 41 maggie in his Barranti rig & he won't pull the trigger. Course he doesn't have an elk tag but some how we need to break in that beautiful FA five gun. He's shooting it really good too!

Hi Steve,

I know a thing or three about cooking for one, and maybe you added some later after the pictures, but I didn't see any garlic. I hope you understand the rule about cooking something with onions; at least two minced cloves of garlic must be added at the same time as the onions. 'course maybe you folks up there in Idaho don't know what garlic is.

 

[callshot]

Hugh, yes we know about garlic. I try to avoid things used to embalm mummies with. I would rather eat pine tree bark with the pine gum on it. I thought it was invented so we could find a skunk in the dark before you got sprayed. To each his own, I just don't use it. Thanks for reminding me though. Steve :wink:

Dang, I knew I shouldn't have looked at this, I'm hungry now....... :mrgreen:

Looks mighty good to me. I had a medium size Dutch oven but my younger son made off with it. Wondering if a big cast iron skillet might work right well too?

I saw two of them in Sportsman Wearhouse yesterday. I also cooked some in my cast iron frying pan today and it worked just fine. Steve

I have never seen a that size dutch oven.

But, it looks as though it cooks well. YUM!

Thanks Tub...I'm going to order one....Am there at the camp stove, a strip of bacon, little onion, one garlic clove, a Deer heart. A slow cook on low heat for about 30 minutes, dinner is served. Could you imagine half an Elk heart and a slice of strap, oh man!!!!!

My mouth is waterin' something fierce with the thought! Or maybe it's the Buffalo meat sauce simmering for the spaghetti that's doing it.
