    It's great to go camping, and do all the cooking outdoors in a dutch oven.  It always makes a lot of food, and then you can invite the neighbors over for a cobbler, or whatever dessert you decided on that night.  We like to make peach cobbler with a spice cake for the mix, or a black forest cake.  All this in a dutch oven.

    Driving all over the US when we were truck drivers, we found out the best places to buy dutch ovens, and we will share that information.  They make great gifts too!!

    I will add recipes for cakes, cobblers, biscuits.  It's easy to bake in a dutch oven.  We also do potatoes, roast pork and roast beef.  Nothing better than dutch oven stew.  I also have a killer recipe for chili, with or without beans, and another for chile rellenos.
     
    If you are looking for dutch ovens, 2 really great places are Smith and Edwards in Ogden UT, and the Lodge factory outlet in West Pittsburg TN (just off I-24, before you get to Chattanooga)

    We do all our cooking outside on a camp chef stove,dutch oven and pies in a box oven. Our stove in the camper has never been used except to boil water a few times. I use a few recipes from here http://papadutch.home.comcast.net/~...ecipes.htm

    Our garden is really producing this year and we have an abundance of tomatoes, squash, peppers, onions, radishes, peas and even Mustard Greens.  My wife is busy canning and creating new recipes for this bounty and I am getting the old smoker out to do up some smoked veggies as well.  Next month we plan a trip to Loke-of-the-Woods and will do a lot of outdoor cooking and I am sure some of this canned bounty will go with us. 

    Funny thing is that eating all this good stuff, I am losing weight.  Must be because I didn't plant potatoes.

    But being Irish, I LOVE potatoes!

    Here's one for  you.  Clean the seeds out of a Jalpinio, wrap it with bacon and grill it until bacon is done.  Then fill with cream cheese and enjoy.  Cooking cuts down the heat as well as removing the seeds.  TASTY!!

    Use care cleaning out the seeds! Don't touch near your eyes, burns like a bugger!

    Those sure are tasty!
