Tasty!

Read my Old West cookbook last night, and came across a recipe called 'Son of a Bitch in a Sack'. Honest to god! Oh, I really need to work that into a story [g] They'd take a sack, dump pudding ingredients in it (pudding as in plum pudding type pudding, not chocolate, then soak it in a barrel of water, haul it out and hang it over a low fire to steam. There's lots of recipes in the book I intend to make, but I think I'll pass on trying to recreate that one!

Now if I could only, you know, write....

Yummmm! And yes, the recipe's name needs to be put in a story.

Sort of like actually cooking something called Shit on a Shingle... and the truth is I LIKE creamed chipped beef on toast...

You know you really want to try it! Just to see if it works... you can even make a 100% cotton bag to mix and soak it in... heh!

Sounds like a great recipe - you really need to have Charlotte make that someday

Oh -- I hadn't thought of this before! If you like old west cooking, have you ever seen the Marlboro Man Chuckwagon Cook leaflet? I have a copy that I can pdf to you -- the company collected a bunch of recipes from the last of the chuckwagon cooks back in -- the late forties, maybe? There's also a nice layout of what a chuckwagon looked like, and some great recipes, including my favorite chili one.

I have a huge interest in the Old West, since I was a child. So please, yes, that would be awesome :) edithna@yahoo.com
