Polish sausage always goes camping with me. Great for breakfast, lunch or dinner, depending upon how you fix it. With eggs, in sandwiches or just grilled over the fire.

My daughter always insists that on one night we have sauerkraut. I empty the big jar of Farman's into a gallon zip-lock bag to make it easier to pack. Cut up an onion and cut up the sausage. Gently brown both, then add the sauerkraut and a can of beer. Simmer covered for 30 minutes, then uncover and simmer until the consistency is the way you want it. Serve with more beer. Man, them's good eats!

Camp Coffee (cowboy coffee)
Equal ratio tablespoons of ground coffee to cups of cold water; half the ratio of empty crushed eggshells.

Example: 5 eggshells for 10 tablespoons of coffee and 10 cups of water

A guy should never read through these posts when hungry, there needs to be a disclaimer   :drool:

Hobo Stew as we call it, used to have it a lot when I was younger, had it for the first time in probably fifteen or twenty years just a month ago.  Large hamburger patti pressed onto a sheet of tin foil and seasoned, surrouned by large potatoe wedges, and topped with your mix of veggies, seasoned, and set over the fire or in the coals.  If you like the veggies more tender, boil them shortly first.

We were talking about this kind of stuff at the Moms Day feed.  The question was why the eggshells?

My favorite is: 1 part 7-up, 2 parts Seagrams 7.    Pour over ice, mix, and drink.   Very Delicious.

As for food..  ??  I'll have to think

I have a similar recipe, but substitute Crown for the Seagrams 7 and don't mess it up with the 7 up. :chuckle:

Used to add the 7 but gave up on it some time ago.  Seems the tough mornings left when the 7 did for me.

Favorite meal is breakfast eggs and taters with Glondo's bacon, cured in CleElum by Charlie Glondo himself.  Throw a bit of his jerky in the pack for my hikes too.

The albumin residue from the egg whites coagulates the grounds and makes them settle. There are other field methods also but the whole reason is that there is no filter used.

Ah...When I make it that way I'll drop a small river rock in the pot as soon as I take the pot off the heat, or if at home I'll have a small spoon or something metal in the freezer and drop that in.

The cold object is supposed to pull all the grounds down...

When the old guys in our deer camp in WI made the cowboy coffee, they would throw in a cup of ice water at the end and all the grounds would settle to the bottom.  Well, most of them anyway.  Damned fine coffee.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

We use the cold water as well, most often when fishing and no eggs along for shore lunch.

Note the coffee pot in the fire right behind the marshmallow roasting for a S'more......only when the wives go with us on the fall fishing trip do we have S'mores. :dunno:
