What did everyone cook today?
-
Back from camping and back to reality. I enjoyed some great food with the family the past several days. I’ve included some pictures if my contributions to the family meals.
This past weekend was the State Park Campground’s Halloween weekend camp out. It has been a family and friends tradition of ours for about 4 decades. My brother, one of my sisters, my family and some old friends were part of it this years.
We took up 5 campsites and a cabin. Unfortunately this weekend the Crappie were not cooperating, so no good fish pics. I will start with Friday’s meal, which were all over wood fire.
Breakfast, yes that is Spam and eggs with toast. Its a long story, but has become part of the tradition.
Lunch was deer brats I made using Walton’s Blue Ribbon brat seasoning and adding some of my ground homemade Chipotle for a little kick.
Dinner was a Hunter’s Pie made in my CI Dutch Oven using 5lbs of ground venison.
Saturday we call the big breakfast. My brother and I get up and start it at sun up. The menu was bacon, sausage with gravy, biscuits, country ham, pancakes. The plate was mine after cooking all morning on the griddle.
Saturday dinner is pot luck. My contribution was ND Mike Chocolate Cherry dump cake and every bit disappeared. I had to improvise a little after leaving my Hershey’s Special dark chocolate chips at home. I had the big pack of Hershey bars for Smores and chopped up 4 bars instead. I also added Dr. Pepper Cherry instead of Coke. It was awesome.
Great weekend with family and friends. Happy Halloween!
GWG8541 That looks real nice. We used to do the same thing every year & then just about everyone that enjoyed it, died over the years, sadly to say & there is only one or two of us left so we do not get to do it much any more. That looks real nice & relaxing.

This project took several days overall but it was worth it. I started with a batch of ghost chili cheddar beer cheese sauce a couple days ago. Last night I made a small rib roast that had been taking up too much freezer space for way too long and started on a bread project. This morning I got to work on some footlong hoagie rolls, picked some bell peppers from my folks garden and grabbed some local onions from the store. I spent the afternoon shaping, resting and baking the bread. After all was said and done I spent about 2 minutes inhaling one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever eaten. Philly has nothing on me.
Joe Hell looks good Joe

calldoctoday my parents loved camping down at this particular park. Im hoping the next generation will continue after I’m 6 feet under.

Might need to add one of those to my survival kit, not really sure it is a need but it is a want!
Jonathon Kabar also made a little bayonet that mounted on a handgun light rail. Of course I had to buy one when I saw it. Probably a Marine thing, but it would be a great addition to any survival kit.

Joe Hell Projects to build a final product are usually well worth the wait. Glad it all worked out for you. My taste buds are clambering for that bite.

Joe Hell Yep I would hammer that!

Beef and bean chili, crusty bread (not homemade because I ran outta flour and today is day one of quarantine for me
), and a Bud. Great fall meal.

Joe Hell - Looks so good. All but that bread that is. That’s the Keto diet talking. LOL.
Well Done! -

Sous vide sirloin tip roast, smoked crab poppers, smoked creamed corn, smoked bourbon apple cobbler.Tex_77 Went fishing in Lake Erie yesterday…fried yellow perch today with Chicken-on-the-run coating today. might make a good sandwich paired with the english muffins?
I’m really starting to enjoy my cast iron cookware.“Never eat more than you can lift.”

Jonesy those look awesome!

craigrice Yes, you are right. It was weird on this one. To attach the photos I had to do the written part & then immediately edit it & attach the photo. Something was going on, but got it to work pretty quickly.

I’m really starting to enjoy my cast iron cookware.Jonesy That looks like some good eating. I can’t believe you were able to get them to the platter to take a photo before they disappeared. Where are those Walleye?

Five pounds of medium cheddar smoking away. Using my A-maze-n smoker tray in the Treager and have the cheese in the cold chamber. Using cherry pellets for a softer smoke flavor. Will do five pounds of sharp cheddar tomorrow. Next will be vacuum sealing and putting away for Christmas presents if I can leave them alone long enough.
