Enjoy some real cowboy cooking with Marilyn and Don Johnson´s Chuck Wagon. They are from Amarillo, Texas, and members of the American Chuck Wagon Association (ACWA). If your not hungry just yet, you will be soon! Tell your friends!
looks leripin good to me i,ve never did dutch oven with the wood but it won,t be long i have cooked a dutch oven with smooth lid on kerosene camp stove with country fries parsnips and sweet onion can,t afford meat if you get the drift ivan from corn country illinois .
I have pans I got thru Amazon then deep dish ones like y'all use for the peach clobber but I measured out an drilled 3 holes at 12 o'clock 4 o'clock and 8 o'clock for hooks to lift the pans into an out of the Dutch ovens and I place a meat trivet in the bottom of the oven to sit the pans on so when I'm baking bread rolls biscuits etc I don't burn the bottoms
Great video it shows some of the work it takes to pull off a meal for a group of people. I imagine they get paid good for this i would hope so they worked thier asses off doing that cook.
If y'all really want to know the answers to yer questions, go to the website www.americanchuckwagon.org and like them on facebook. Be patient, these is mostly old folks and crotchitier than Hades, but sooner er later, ya might get your questions answered quicker there...or maybe not. I ain't no spring chicken, my own dang self, but if I can find out what I want to know, so can just about any other half wit, I promise you. Don't be raggin' on the old folks! For all you know they might be spending half their lives livin' like ya seen in these videos out in the middle of nowhere and the other half sleepin' it off and not givin' a hoot about nuthin'! Go out and attend one of these gatherings or competitions and God bless all a y'all.
My Grandmother was born in 1890 and married at 16 and cooked 3 meals over a fire a day on a chuck wagon following the fence crew on my Grandfathers some 2000+ acres. My Grandfather paid her .25 cents a week to do this and she saved her quarters and bought her own land with her money. They were original Florida pioneers, I am glad to have been taught by my Grandmother on how to hunt a hog break it down with a hatchet, saw, and knife and cook it in the ground for to feed the hungry cow pokes. I am now 62 and I have knowledge from my Grandmother than no one can teach these days.
@Angela Baril We're probably far away cousins and your story makes me wish we were neighbours. What a wonderful gift you were given. Thank you for sharing. Louise
i would guess that pot she poured the dough out of is a bread mixer (hand cranked).. they don't seem interested in answering any questions , that's too bad.. that bread turned out real nice too.. I do know this is five years old and still no answered questions..
