Cooking for 8 persons,
This review is from: Camp cookery for small groups
This book by the Boy Scouts of America is designed to be used so that a cook and a helper can prepare enough food for 8 hungry persons, or it can be streched if some of the people are lighter eaters. The recipes are easily modified for larger groups if neccessary. If you need to cook for smaller groups than this, there is another book made by BSA for cooking that sells here at Amazon, it has everything you need to know if you have no outdoor cooking skills at all, or no cooking skills period. It is called "Cooking, Merit Badge Series".
The book on this page assumes you have some basic outdoor cooking skills. After a really good chapter on planning, shopping, measurements, number of servings, it has a chapter on cooking equipment, pots, pans, etc. It has very limited information on fires or stoves, but jumps into a ton of really good fail-free simple recipes. This is down home camp cooking, none of that foo-foo outdoor gourmet stuff here. Fried chicken, pot roast, sloppy joes, goulash, stews, chicken & dumplings, burgers, stewed chicken, roast chicken, spaghetti, ham dinner, beans, pigs in the blanket, stuff that hungry boys love. It has side dishes, breads, and beverages. It has a great chapter on breakfast, one of the most importatn meals in the woods. And most important, to the hungry kids, is the desert... brownies, peach cobbler, doughnut balls, apple pudding, pineapple upside down cake, fried apples, and more. All in all a great book for groups, or big families. I highly reccommend. |
