The real fun started...

Is it wrong....the REAL fun for me is the cooking

Russ

I'm with you. I've always loved being the camp cook. As an added bonus, everyone else gets cleanup duty.

Camp wouldn't be the same without fellas like you (wash your hands often right LOL) I'm a great eater, so a great cook is a must

I did not have any dove this time around so I used some beef steaks that I then cut into large pieces, stuffed the jalapenos, and wrapped in bacon. I had corn on the cobb, red potatoes roasted for 4 hours with mushrooms, onions, and butter. Apple cobbler finished it off.

Day 2 was pork roast slow roasted with mashed potatoes and green beans and homemade sourdough biscuits.

I love having people to cook for

I don't care how far you are from me, I would not mind the drive, if I could get invited to one of those dinners.

lol.. I'll get you an invite soon I am not doing a lot of hunting atm as we have our hands full trying to start a new house.. but keep in touch and I'll come up with a special menu for a visit.. heh

I do not always do the same thing, but apple cobbler is usually there as it just fits well with a ranch visit.

Russ, you are the best camp chef I've ever had the pleasure of dining with. The are lucky to have you my friend.

Looks like a nice place/time. No loosing weight at that deer camp!

Spent the weekend at our place, just me and my old man we lived on biscuits sandwiches and hotdogs with PLENTY of sourkraut... was a gassy ride home.

Looks like good clean fun!

Now yer lyin.. but that's okay I just love getting folks out there. We are going to add a boxwood stove next year so I can have a fire and have a pot of coffee always hot on the porch. I like my coffee no matter the time of day.

We are also building some more storage on the deck as well as the kitchen so I can make more room for baking stuff etc. Nothing like good buttermilk biscuits in the morning, and not out of a can. Takes me only a few minutes to throw it together, but I gotta get space.. heh. We are getting there, then it'll be a real "chuck wagon" style setup. Not everything gets cooked "over a fire" but if it's good enough, you won't care

Pitch, we need to get you and Mike back there soon and get another Axis.

Chevy - the worst bad weekend at the ranch beats the hell out of a good weekend stuck at home in a sub-division. I wish I had pulled the trigger and taken the kids out of school and drug them along though.. they would have made it more fun I spent a little time sitting on top of the hill and looking out over the ranch and thinking of life and my dad. He would have loved it out there. Those weekends with your dad, even on biscuits...gotta love them.

It all sounds delicious. I agree with this statement, I prefer BlackBerry cobbler but they are all good. Not to big on peach.

Very nice. I got to camp early Friday and smoked a pork shoulder 9 hours for the next night. Went to sleep at 1 am. A kid got his first buck from a pen I cleared and feeder I filled and blind I cleaned out and told him about the buck seen. Maybe I'll get a big buck in return...

I'll vouch for you, buddy. Helluva chef.

I will look forward to the biscuits, cobbler, and coffee Russ.

And of course another delicious Axis to go with it would be outstanding.

I look forward to helping you stock some quail in the freezer soon.

I need to try blackberry sometime.. but I agree, not a huge fan of peach either.

Duck: make sure and let us know if you get that buck! I know 2 guys this weekend got their first buck. We thought they should get one vs us.. heh

Pitch, soon as I get healed up.. yer on
