5.0 out of 5 stars Best ever cookbook!, August 1, 2001

By	vly5 "[e-mail]" (Accord, New York USA) - See all my reviews

Never have I laughed so much as I did reading this cookbook. The stories are great and the recipes are even better. I used this book extensively while camping this year and it was the first time I ever used a DO(dutch oven). When my very picky middle daughter started looking for seconds and thirds at our meals, I knew I had learned a good thing. If anyone is just starting out or even is already using a dutch oven, this book is a must have! (Try the blackberry dump cake, I had'em licking out the dutchy!!) You will enjoy and use this book again and again!

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book is EXCELLENT!, May 29, 2000

By A Customer

While not being much of a cook myself, I have found this book to be truly enlightening. (It helps to have a good cookbook for those of us who aren't blessed with the gifts of Cee Dub) It is not only filled with all kinds of great recipies, but they are organized in a way that makes it easy to find something interesting to make... whether cooking in the back yard or out camping with the whole family. I know that this book will be one that gets USED! Plus, it is full of great stories from an incredible person. I have to admit that this is the first cook book that I have been able to sit down and read for enjoyment as well as MUST HAVE Dutch Oven tips and recipies. A must have for the outdoorsman!

5.0 out of 5 stars Dutch Oven cooking at it's best, March 26, 2006

By	Ingo Heiland (Meerbeck, Germany) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

For me as a German "Dutch Oven Lover" this cookbook is an easy and efficient way of learning how to cook with a Dutch Oven; the recipes are explained in detail and easy to change with other ingredients that are handy.
The highlights of this book are the tales which are very amusing and informative at the same time. It gives this cookbook a touch of a Wild West story book, nicely to read and entertaining.
When did you read - really read - a cookbook last time?
This book was fun to read and I learned a lot of "handling" my Dutch Oven and outdoor cooking.
