Editorial Review:
Product Description:
Chili, stew, biscuits—it's all here in over a hundred old-time recipes, home remedies too! More than a cookbook, it's a treasure trove of ranch lore.
"This is a splendid collection of cowcamp cook tales and 112 authentic old-time dutch oven recipes." —Books of the Southwest
"It is a delightful combination of yarns, history, nostalgia, and solid information—all ingeniously brewed up and spiced by a lady who knows what she is about." —Journal of Arizona History
"We haven't had a book that was so much fun to read in a long time." —Journal of the West
"If you want a good change in your eating, this is the book for you." —True West

Great cookbook for those that still yearn for the days of the lonesome prairie. And the beans and bacon that we can smell simmering..

The book has some wonderful recipes for outdoor grub. Some are old and some don't use traditional units of measure. They are all great dishes, though. Stella also intersperses stories about camp cooks she has known, how they did things, what was important to them, etc. These stories are a great documentation of the western cowboy life. The section on sourdough is especially good.
