Haven’t had anything to eat this morning and that stoup really makes me hungry. I was ready to hop in my rig and head that way when Cindy said “wish you were here”.
It was great! We like the old ways and try to live that way as much as possible. Now days, it's a lot harder to do, but it can be done. I have Mexican friend that cooks 100% over an open fire.
Good morning Gary and Cindy ! The food looks great and just the sight of the bonfire made me warm up. Hope you both have a great day. Thanks for sharing!
I know that had to be delicious. Now with my leftovers of beef stew. (I always fix a NESCO Roaster full). I make homemade pot pies. I freeze them . GOD BLESS from West Central Indiana Farmland ✝️🇺🇸🥰🚜
Good morning When you said you bought a Witches Pot and knowing who would probably be using it I half expected to see Muskrat hanging by his toes in the next video Nothing beats a meal cooked over a campfire Have a good day
originally it called for one pound , but i did it to one half. so here we go. Grease and flour a 9 by 5 by 3 pan. cream 1 cup pf sofi butter, add gradually 1 cup of sugar for 10min.Beat in1/4 tsp grated lemon rind and 1 Ibsp lemon juice for 30 sec. beat in 4 eggs 1 add a time for 1 1/2 min each.sifed together and beat in all at once, 2cups cakeflour , 1/4 baking powder , beat till smooth 1 min.,pour in to pan.tem at 300 slow oven 70 to 90min. or if a wood pick come out clean.cool in pan.
And a good time was had by all. That looks like a wonderful Stewp. Who knows, we might all have to go back to cooking like that. Best wishes to you folks!
Very enjoyable video! That's my kind of get-together! I watched it near the wood stove this morning in the Ozarks of Arkansas. Not too cold this morning but just cold enough to be getting a severe ice storm.. It's always good to see Cindy in these videos too! P.s. there will be a pot of stew made here today.. thanks for the suggestion
Wow! I have no doubt in my mind that Cindy's stew is simply delicious. And how much more wholesome can ya get than cooking vegetables from the garden and beef you guys raised yourself, on an open fire outdoors. Good God, you just created a hunger crisis for 172 people (at least that's the view count as I write this); I just went to the freezer and took out a chunk o' moose to thaw. Will be making stew, lol. That is one ideal cookin' system, the cauldron and the tripod. Genius job on the tripod and hooks and chain. Btw, what kinda fire pit is that? Really practical, handles and all. You were thinking the willow might not be dry enough to burn yet but it looks like it went pretty well. A great visit guys, so grateful for the time you put into bringing us along. Still baffles me how much you guys fit into a day. Thanks and be blessed till next time.
Thank you very much! It was great! For a LOT of years, she had cooked in Dutch Ovens, and this is similar, just a different shape. Moose Stew sounds great!! That green willow ended up just fine. I was really worried it wouldn't burn, but it did just right.
Oh, and the firepit....it was made by a friend and given to us. It's really nice, but it's a little too tall. I should dig out a hole and set it a little lower in the ground. I'll probably do that this Summer.
I like the word "Stewpe" Sounds French. LOL Man you all were havin some fun 8 months ago. I've never had anything cooked in a kettle Gary/Cindy. Lot's of Dutch oven fixens but never from a kettle. I really enjoyed this one folks. Made me think of my awesome brothers and friends in "Elk camp". All gone now Sadly. Also remember my Mom telling me the difference between a soup and a stew is flour. LOL I'm one of 12,000 who would love to be there with you all. Many blessings to you all.
@@MuskratOutdoors Gonna be warm here also. But guess what? As soon as I'm done watching your video today I'm going out to look for some arrowheads. I haven't been out at all this year so I'm a happy camper. Thanks for the reply Gary. It means a lot to me.
Good to hear! Cindy had done Dutch Oven Cooking for years, in the campfire, not charcoal brickettes. We are new to the Cauldron though. I think it's going to be fun, and get a LOT of use!
@MuskratOutdoors Know what you mean! My first one was a princess from Montgomery, Alabama. She saw no beauty whatsoever in the Rocky Mountain West. Always tried to gentrify me, and move me to the Gulf Coast. Pretty and all, lots of critters and nice folks, but it smells bad, brown water, and no mountains! Vicki was second to the youngest of 8 kids on a dairy farm in Robert's, Id.
Vicki can outshoot me, operate heavy equipment, and her Dad always said "she works like she's killin' snakes" . Oh, and she's purtier than a new set of snow tires!!!
Hi Guys that high mountain stew cooked over a fire looks pretty darn good Beef and veggies is my favorite food That is a neat cooking setup thanks for the video if I was up in the area I would have Loved to join you guys stay warm up there GOD Bless You Guys
Heck yeah! There was plenty! I'm really glad I bought her that. It's going to be fun to use.....which means she will make some good vittles! I think it will get a lot of use!
Good Day!!! Now that's a bonfire & I'm confident that stew was fabulous😊. I sure like that cast iron pot though Gary. Up to the 50s in couple days. Been tracking frozen pipes on the well. Have a little bit of work coming up but right now ground is frozen.
50's sounds great! We have had a few days hit 40F. Over all, it's been a really mild Winter. In fact, right now, 6pm, it's 35F. I don't know what the high was? That cast Iron Pot is great! Really glad I bought it!
So I made a dish that was very similar the other night. Exception was I used bear meat and no morels. I was wondering did that stew have a smoked flavor from the camp fire? It sounds fantastic either way. 👍👍
I like bear stew! That's my favorite way to cook bear meat. Maybe a little, but I didn't notice much of a smoke taste? With the lid off, some wood ash got into it. That probably added some flavor?
Polar bear? Wow! We have eaten a lot of black bears, and my Uncle had an Alaskan Brown bear he made into jerky. It was good. Morels are good! A little smoky tasting, and "meaty" tasting.
We would call that a rib sticking big soup, looked really good and I could feel the heat of the fire from here. Do you ever put 'dumplings' in a soup or stew, my wife makes them with flour, suet and water with a pinch of salt, she puts them in the stew, about 20 minutes before serving, delicious!! My mouth is watering now, take care both, Norfolk, UK Ray
Any moreals in the pot? Ahh and I heard her say she’s checking on the home made bread . Folks that lady makes some awesome home made bread heck home made anything good thing muskrats have high metabolism or he couldn’t but his boots on in the morning
Yes I did. Roughly 50/50 in an antifreeze jug. Poured a little on the sticks, tossed the jug in the fire, and tossed a piece of burning cardboard on top.
Nice job on that stew. Do you guys celebrate Guy Fawkes Night? It's traditionally been a big thing in our culture. It is on Nov. 5th. When I was a lad, we would gather up anything that burned for this event. Nowadays, it's strictly controlled.
I don't think so? Her cabbage, she made into Sauerkraut. This was all from her Garden, and a cow we raised. Pretty neat to feed that many people that way.
If man could catch and store the heat of a bonfire, something i tought often about! Good looking stew was it a real cow or a heifer? In Canada, cows went into burger mostly. Anyways thanks for the party from Germany🙏
A lot of heat for sure! It was a Holstien Calf we raised into a cow. Live weight was probably neat 1,000 pounds. We had about 700 pounds hanging. It was a free martin, so sterile....
It sure could have used them. Nothing here was store bought, all from the garden, and a cow we raised. This year, she'll have to plant more carrots! Radishes too! Not for the stew, but I like radishes!
Haven’t had anything to eat this morning and that stoup really makes me hungry. I was ready to hop in my rig and head that way when Cindy said “wish you were here”.
Heck yeah! You would have been welcome!
Dang I wished i could join for sure! Thanks for sharing! Looks yummy!! 😋😋😋😋
It turned out to be a lot of fun! Tasty too!
@@MuskratOutdoors I bet!! 😊👍
Cindy is making me hungry ... Again ! ! !
Ha! Good! Thank you!
Good food good friends and a bonfire, you just can’t beat that. You really know how to live.
It was great! We like the old ways and try to live that way as much as possible. Now days, it's a lot harder to do, but it can be done. I have Mexican friend that cooks 100% over an open fire.
Looks yummy ❤Have a great day ❤
It sure was. Thanks! You too!
Good morning Gary and Cindy ! The food looks great and just the sight of the bonfire made me warm up. Hope you both have a great day. Thanks for sharing!
Good morning! It ended up being a lot of fun.
Nothing quite like a bonfire!!!!!
For sure!
I know that had to be delicious. Now with my leftovers of beef stew. (I always fix a NESCO Roaster full). I make homemade pot pies. I freeze them . GOD BLESS from West Central Indiana Farmland ✝️🇺🇸🥰🚜
Those are good! I like Pot Pies!
Man that looks good some good eating
It was!
Good morning. That's my kinda night out with good food and even better people. Have a great day and you sure did make me hungry lol
Good morning! It was a lot of fun!
Oh my!! That must have been wonderful😋...good morning 😊
Good Morning! It really was! It turned out great and the bonfire party too.
Looks like fun for sure. Now I’m hungry for beef stew and cold beer
It was fun! We had both!!!
Good morning When you said you bought a Witches Pot and knowing who would probably be using it I half expected to see Muskrat hanging by his toes in the next video Nothing beats a meal cooked over a campfire Have a good day
Ha! Yes, seems he got away with it..
Ha! I KNOW!! She does have a Halloween witch hat! Campfire cooking is always fun to do.
Ha! I do get away with a lot! Cindy is awful understanding!
Some guitar pickin and a jar of squeezins to top off the night.... That Cindy is a fine cook!
That would have been great! Got the one, but can't play no guitar!
Comfort food at its best. 😊😊😊😊😊
Heck yeah! Very tasty!
That stew is making me hungry! Will Cindy give away her “old-timey“ recipe for the pound cake? I love “old “ recipes!
originally it called for one pound , but i did it to one half. so here we go. Grease and flour a 9 by 5 by 3 pan. cream 1 cup pf sofi butter, add gradually 1 cup of sugar for 10min.Beat in1/4 tsp grated lemon rind and 1 Ibsp lemon juice for 30 sec. beat in 4 eggs 1 add a time for 1 1/2 min each.sifed together and beat in all at once, 2cups cakeflour , 1/4 baking powder , beat till smooth 1 min.,pour in to pan.tem at 300 slow oven 70 to 90min. or if a wood pick come out clean.cool in pan.
@@MuskratOutdoors Thank you so much! I have a ladies church dinner in February and I think this will be a great treat for all!
And a good time was had by all. That looks like a wonderful Stewp. Who knows, we might all have to go back to cooking like that.
Best wishes to you folks!
It was really good! Yeah, the way things have been going, we sure might. It's fun to do, but if that was all you had, it probably wouldn't be.
Boy, that stew looks GOOD!
Oh Man JR! It was great! Lots of flavor!
Gary your videos give me Idaho fever!!
HA!
What an awesome thing to do while you're waiting for spring to come.looks amazing👍🍻
It sure is! And no chance of it getting away with the snow either.
Thanks for sharing Cindy and thank you for the invite. Smells sooi good. Enjoy you two.
Thank you very much for watching it also! It was a good time for sure!
Love over the fire food!👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
Us too! It's fun to do too!

Thanks! It was fun. Cindy is kind of camera shy. It's hard to get in the mood to do it.
Hell yeah. Cindy did a hella good job on stew!! Good food beer and friends! Don’t get any better
That's for sure! And the bonfire burned better than I thought it was going to also! I was afraid it might not. Too many Green Willows.....
Looks delicious!!
It was!!!

@@MuskratOutdoors Man Gary, You don't know how much I would enjoy that. Have a great day Sir.
@@kevinkline6835 You too. Blue sky here today. Looks like it will be kind of hot even.

I bought one of these this last spring and took it up camping.. cooked elk stew.. it was amazing! These potjie pots are awesome. 😊
Good to hear! Cindy had done Dutch Oven Cooking for years, in the campfire, not charcoal brickettes. We are new to the Cauldron though. I think it's going to be fun, and get a LOT of use!
Awesome . More please 🙏
We will before long! Thank you!
Nummm nummm, nummm! You DO know what a treasure You have in that Young Lady, dontcha? Take er easy, have a great one!

HA! GOOD! I'm really glad I got her that pot!! I think it will get a lot of use, and I'll get some great grub!
Looked real good 💯. I've got me a good cook but only part time. Nice big bonfire. Can't wait till spring.😊 Thanks for another great video.!!!!!!
It sure was. Great fire! I was afraid it was too green to burn very well, but it worked out. Spring is coming....not fast enough, but it's coming!
That is a good looking stew.
It was great!!!
Loved to have been there and tasted the stew
It was really good! Plenty of it too.
Looks good good times
It sure was!
Excellent Video Ole mountain Man. I'm thinking y'all should throw bugs bunny in with all that good stuff. Thanks for the video ❤
Great idea!! I think rabbit season is still open.....????
Mmmmm looks good
Oh Man! Was it ever!
Oh i bet that stew was amazing
It really was! Just a little spice, (Cracked black pepper) and lots of flavor!
Yep, your woman paying you back with good eats👍👍👍. You married well my friend 😉. Take care.🇺🇲🔪🔥🌲
I sure did! I'm very, very, lucky!
Looks Good, got any eye of NEWT in there? The tripod is really awesome. Seen any Bigfoot tracks 😅 I'll take a tritip😊 sandwich Have a Great Night. 😊
I think there was! HA! It's going to be fun Halloween time! She'll have to get dressed up and make something strange!
Man, that stew looks good, do you have enough for one more? It'll take me a day or two to get there. Haha.
Enjoy.
God bless,

You bet!!! Better hurry though!
So I made a dish that was very similar the other night. Exception was I used bear meat and no morels. I was wondering did that stew have a smoked flavor from the camp fire? It sounds fantastic either way. 👍👍

Too much to say, thanks for the view.

😅dang that looks good and with home made bread
Can't beat it for sure! I have trouble paying for restraunt food....it's not as good and too much money!
We would call that a rib sticking big soup, looked really good and I could feel the heat of the fire from here.

SHE DOES!! I love those Dumplings! I think she uses flour and eggs, but I'm not sure?
Any moreals in the pot? Ahh and I heard her say she’s checking on the home made bread . Folks that lady makes some awesome home made bread heck home made anything good thing muskrats have high metabolism or he couldn’t but his boots on in the morning
HA! Thanks Bill! Yep! Morels were in there!!! Dang that was good stewp!!!
Did you use diesel and gas mix to start brush fire, i was going to use it this year.
Yes I did. Roughly 50/50 in an antifreeze jug. Poured a little on the sticks, tossed the jug in the fire, and tossed a piece of burning cardboard on top.

Thanks! Guy Fawkes Night? I've never hears of it? I'll have to look it up.
I can almost smell it Cindy , did you add any cabbage cut up in it ? I’m gonna have to make some in the house in my big Dutch oven
I don't think so? Her cabbage, she made into Sauerkraut. This was all from her Garden, and a cow we raised. Pretty neat to feed that many people that way.
Ive posted some cast-iron bread pans from Lodge, is Cindy using that for her bread ?
Sometimes she does. Most times though, just tin ones.
If man could catch and store the heat of a bonfire, something i tought often about! Good looking stew was it a real cow or a heifer? In Canada, cows went into burger mostly. Anyways thanks for the party from Germany🙏

@@MuskratOutdoors ah okay ,Holstein have good tasty meat👍 thank you!
Where is all the teenage kids at for the bomb fire 😅
No, I think all in their 20's or more actually?
Needs more carrots
It sure could have used them. Nothing here was store bought, all from the garden, and a cow we raised. This year, she'll have to plant more carrots! Radishes too! Not for the stew, but I like radishes!
