    Not cooking in camp, but...

    The other day, I made Polish Cwais (not sure of the spelling). It is a beet soup that is made with smoked pork like smoked neck bones or hocks. As my local wallyworld were out of smoked neck bones and as I do not like using hocks I got smoked pig tails. THE BEST to use is smoke neck bones and...

    Being of Polish descent ( not Polish American as I am an AMERICAN) I research traditional Polish recipes. Historically Poles were all over, just underdocumented. Like being in California with Russians. Found many recipes that are tasty. I got into making sausage. Kielbasa of course, turned out...

    Dried Beef

    I tried my hand at making biltong. Plenty of recipes out there. Basically soaking beef in vinegar and herbs and completely air drying. Mine got hard as a rock. Commercial biltong, I think, is like commercial beef jerky. I believe real biltong was a method of preserving meat for storage and...

    HB Brass Tinder Box w/ fire starting glass

    Apologizing up front. How common would the Hudson Bay tinder box with glass on lid be in the fur trade 1830's. Is it used by "rich folk", as I would guess the common trapper would be too poor to acquire such a fancy accruement.

    Jerky

    I have made jerky with beef and elk salt and little else. Used a dehydrator and this jerky has set on my counter top in open glass jars and have been kept dry for over a year. hard as a rock but still edible, has to be rehydrated, but my understanding is that it was the way to preserve meat for...

    Anyone know about Fort Meigs?

    Fort Meigs is a great site. I played there for years before moving west. I never was part of an organized group,I ran with a bunch of guys that didn't either. It can be great fun there. But like anywhere else you will run into know-it-alls, elitests, and all around pains, but past that it is a...

I do know it was at one the the gigs I went to in the midwest(Ohio or Mich)... maybe even Fort Meigs. Anyhow I like it...
