I love my dutch oven. When I put up deer camp durring ML season. Or like I use to do when I had time,  I always had a couple left over Deer Roasts from the year before that I took along. My favorit thing to do was to plop one of these frozen (usually cold out durring december) roasts into the dutch oven and add a couple quarts of water. 2 packages of lipton onion soup mix about a half dozen potatoes and a bunch of carrots and a 3 or 4 whole onions. Put the lid on and stoke up the fire and go hunting. Come back at noon and start the fire up again and eat a sandwich and coffee. Come back after dark and again stoke up the fire and wait till it starts steaming and serve. Man when your hungry after hunting all day and cold does that ever taste good. Only problem you have with it is being that hungry and tired it usually about 20 minutes after eating and cleaning up the plates that you drop soundly off to sleep. ;D Course a toddy or two don't help much either.  |

i hear ya bill. i tend to bring my smoker along on some of my camping trips, (especialy summer trout fishing) i load it up in the morning (10:00 - 11:00) with some country style ribs all rubbed with my "Special Rub" and go and fish all day, maybe add some more coals mid day and then that evening it's a happy place when you come back and dinner is waiting for ya.

I have several dutch ovens and love to cook out of them.
Dessert - Depending on the size of your oven, mine are all size 12, I put 3 cans of pie filling in. Use the filling with the HEAVY syrup it works the best. Then I cover the pie filling with a box of jiffy Yellow cake mix, then I cut up a stick of butter and spread in out on top of the cake mix. Put coals under it and on top of it and let it go until the cake mix has browned (~ an hour if temp is right). It is GOOD....
Check in the frozen food section for Bobali (sp) frozen pizzas, they'll fit right down in your oven. I would put coals on top of the oven and get it good and hot and cheese staritng to melt then add coals under it.
I cook biscuits in mine too, that's ALWAYS a hit.
Stews and chili are good.
If you can make it in your oven at home you can make it in a dutch oven.

First off, I would like to welcome you to HF. Goin' by your handle, I can only geuss that you either live/work in a rock mine or you have a love for flintlocks. I fall under both catagories ;D. Swing on by whenever you get a mind to. I talk to a few others down in your neck of the woods.
Anyway, I'll see if I can't latch onto ma's recipe. I spect my dad still has it tucked somewhere.

Hi stumpjumper , sorry I took so long to get back ... You got it in 2 I shoot make flint locks from scratch ,Presently have a .50 cal rifle and a .60 cal smooth bore , I have toyed with the idea of rifling it but a guy recently persuaded me to sell him my rifiling rig , I am presently putting together a .36 cal flinter for varmint shooting but must confess I am taking far too long on this one ..The price of powder has gone through the roof like $48 .00 per pound , which makes the .60 just about redundent anymore

Flint, I make sourdough bread- at home, not in a Dutch oven. A few years back my sourdough starter went bad- never did figure out why, and I got to looking around and made a really useful discovery. You can buy a product that you add to a basic whitebread (or whatever you like) recipe- and you get sourdough - good sourdough! D**m neat stuff! It is called " All Natural Sourdough Bread Enhancer" and it's made by a company named Lora Brody Products, Inc. www.lorabrody.com I was highly skeptical of this stuff until I tried it. It really works- and it's easy. |
