Howdy Steve, As you will note I have a new email address. I took the seven boys to their 2nd year Webelos Camp at Camp Sterns in MN. Great time, gee the boys are growing up since I was with them in Tiger Cubs. I have a pleasant supprise for you, A favorite pie crust recipe

A Great Pie Crust

One 9-inch pie crust

Sift the flour, salt, and sugar into a 9-inch pie plate. In a 1-cup measuring cup, whisk together the oil and milk and pour over the flour mixture. Using a fork, mix until completely dampened. Press the dough evenly over the bottom of the pan, then up the sides and over the rim. To use as a baked shell.

Prick the surface of the dough with a fork several times and bake in a preheated 4250 F. Oven for 12 to 15 minutes; cool and fill as desired. To use as a unbaked shell, just fill with the desired pie filling and bake according to the filling directions.

Note: If you want to use the crust for beef pot pies or with any other savory filling, just eliminate the 2 tablespoons sugar.

During the Scoutmaster Fundamental camp out I made a 3 pie Box Oven. It worked great. How about mentioning how to construct one on the Netwoods Virtual Campsite?

Look forward to hearing form you, throw another log on will ya?

SPAM Lasagna!

Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Brown the ground beef in a skillet. Drain off all the fat. Add the garlic, salt & wine. Simmer a few minutes. Then stir in the crushed peeled tomatoes and tomato paste. Put on low heat & cook, stirring occasionally for about 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the lasagna. (look on box for specifics).
  3. Combine eggs, Ricotta, Parmesan, parsley and pepper (dash or two) and blend 'em up good. Key to this is smooth.
  4. Slice SPAM real thin, I like to use a cheese slicer.
  5. In a greased glass baking pan (approx. 12 x 8 x 2 inches or thereabouts), arrange a layer of lasagna. Spread a layer of the Ricotta mix on top of the lasagna. Make a layer of SPAM slices on top of the Ricotta mix. Top SPAM with a layer of meat sauce & sprinkle with a couple handfuls of the Mozzarella. Repeat this layering until you run out of stuff.
  6. Bake this pie in a 350 degree oven for about a half an hour, until bubbly & a nice brown crust has formed on top. Let it stand a few minutes after taking it out of the oven, it will be hot. Should make enough for about 6 hungry SPAM lovers!

Backcountry Breakfast

My favourite backcountry breakfast:

Mix ingredients thoroughly in a bowl and pour contents into a baggy. When ready to eat breakfast all you have to do is dump contents from the baggy into a pot and add 2 cups boiling water. Let contents sit for two minutes, then serve.

Beef Jerky Recipe

Slice lean boneless beef (such as brisket) into 1/8" strips, trimming fat. Cut with the grain for chewy jerky or across the grain for crumbly jerky. Lay strips on oven rack (use foil or pan underneath to catch drippings). Salt to taste. Dry in oven at lowest temperature (150 degrees), leaving door slightly ajar, for 8-12 hours. Turn several times for even drying. Taste test occasionally. For more seasoned flavor, marinate cut meat overnight in the following ingredients:

Dry as above.

Vary marinade as experience and personal taste dictate... for instance, I use a little liquid smoke, One packing buddy of mine uses a little hot pepper sauce....

Checken & Dumplings

Ingredients:

Mix the soup, chicken meat and vegetables in a relatively deep pot with 2 to 3 cups water. Place on camp stove. Heat to simmering, stirring occasionally. While soup stuff is heating, add water (see Bisquick box instructions for qty.) to Bisquick and knead in the zip-lock bag. When soup stuff is hot, tear off a corner of the bag and squeeze out plops of Bisquick into the pot. Cover and cook for about 10 mintues on low heat.

Hearty Hash Browns

Take a box of frozen hash browns in a ziplock but ditch the box. Take along enough alluminum foil to hold them. Use your fovorite condiments on them and ball them up in the alluminum foil and place in the fire where you can reach it with a stick. Check every now and then to see if they are done. If you are somewhere where they don't allow fires cook as you regurly do on a camping stove.

Breakfast Combo

I had this on one of my trips in the White Mountains, and it surprised me how simple it was, and that many people don't think of it. Adjust the quantities for size of group. It is excellent for that first morning, though prepackaging the fruit cocktail would eliminate the cans.

serves 3

Combine the ingredients and serve cold, or warm them. It's even better hot!

Survival Cookies

Use a large bowl. Blend wet ingredients & sugar. Add salt, milk, soda, flour and mix well. Add wheat germ and oats and blend. Add the chips, raisins, etc. and mix.

Remove cookies from oven and let sit on cookie sheet for 3 minutes to firm up - otherwise they are too soft to get off the pan. Cool on rack. Small cookies are crisp, larger cookies are chewy. Cookies may be frozen and heated in microwave when ready to eat (they become soft and chewy)

These cookies were developed by my grandparents to take with them on a trip around the world.
