Can you see the sun breaking the horizon?

 

The fire is already going, and you see others in camp stirring about. Perhaps someone is brewing up a kettle of Arbuckle’s axle grease, the old west cowboy’s name for Arbuckle brand coffee brewed strong.

 

God knows how you found yourself in this situation, but you do appreciate the freedom of the wide-open range. You like a nice plate of hen fruit (eggs) cooked in cow grease (butter) around the fire.

 

Everyone carries their weight on the trail. They have no choice. Not like those city folks who spend most of their time padding out their bellies. Out here you are lucky if you have a small pack of airtights (canned goods) and some swamp seed (rice) to tide you over after a long day.

 

Now, it’s not always scraping by. Sometimes meals back at camp can be delicious. There are a number of meals that are simple but memorable. I mean, you can make anything taste better if you top it with a little Texas butter (gravy from beef grease, flour and milk or water.)

 

This list contains some great recipes that would have been commonplace at the cowboy camp and out on the range.
