Cookin' It Old School

For those who don't know, my dad is an award winning dutch oven cook. Us kiddies have been bothering him for awhile to teach us the skills of the trade, so when we had a three-day weekend with Labor Day, we decided to have a dutch oven cooking/teaching extravaganza.

Who would of thought the hot tub would be such a great cooking prep table?

Good work Russell! If you need to fry something up, just use the lid. Who would of thought? Told you my dad was good...

Caitlyn working on the cornbread under the watchful eye of the master (my dad, definitely not the confused, trying to take it all in girl in the background)

Go Colty go! Way to use those muscles!
Just cooking and turning into something delicious!

40 mile stew, cornbread and cobbler, delish!


Cleaning up. Don't EVER use water in your dutch oven. Water= serious bad news! (and yes, i am a total tongue sticker outer when i concentrate. Another thing I learned from my dad...)
Amber has a gummy bear in there you know...

Oh hey colt and kadey

Well, the mama was behind the camera, so sadly, we have no pictures of her. As with basically every dutch oven meal though, she was there behind the scenes getting everything prepped and ready! She definitely deserves some credit!
Great day, great food and great company, although we were missing erin and abe (as usual). The good news for everyone is if you come camping with me, I know at least have an idea of how to serve you something tasty!
