:smile: Please explain :thinking:

Cooked in a cast iron ā€œdutchā€ oven overnight , beans could last for many meals; some cowboys even repurposed the leftovers by forming them into patties and re-frying them later. Dried meat was another important part of the cowboy diet, providing protein and energy for the long days on the cattle drive.

Was just as the name suggested eaten by Cowboys!..was really just being light heartedā€¦guess they would still be good in your soup recipesā€¦also would think a slow cooker would do that same thing now for easinessā€¦

You should write a book about your recipes - it would help a lot of people

Well done! Nothing better than a long day and remembering that you donā€™t have to cook dinner. Thanks for sharing!

That could be numerous buckets of vomit as far as I can tell. :wink:
